"Do you think they're for male or female?"
"They're for anyone" @ 2:26
Respect to this man.
2:40 Black and white what an excellent colour
The lady presenter is really pretty.
Wish I could have seen these in colors,but I do get it lol. They look dashing.
The old guy was emotionally mature and confident in his masculinity. Something we Americans really miss in a leader.
STFU you hysterical goofball.
Almost all the cars in Australia were British back then. I wore clothes like that in England in the mid sixties. Velvet jackets, satin shirts, loud ties. It was a great time to be a stylish young man or woman.
Love to see old cars and building ..beauty
capes will always look good.
that's some powerful hairspray she had
I love how they deliberately went to the industrial wastelands of Sydney to parade the dandy clothing lol Surprisingly liberal minded men there though I would've thought they'd all have turned their noses down at it. Goes to show you cant judge books by covers.
Optimistic Whovian the weirdest reaction was from that woman who said they look “sissy”. Then she said all Australian men are drinkers. Oh dear.
Just reflective of the time, even women were more sexist back then, it goes to show how the human brain will accept anything if it's cultivated from an early age, women now would consider these women traitors to the cause. @@bigtux11
Paddy's market Sydney. Hardly a wasteland.
Some good videos on this channel. Coming from the UK here.
Bring back the cape!
Anyone can wear them, it’s a democracy after all.
Good on ya to the bloke at 2:26
Colours, what colours? Everything back then was either black or white like this video
The old man trying on the cape was so cute. Makes me sad that most of these people are really old now or dead.
Man I'd like some 1967 threads myself
The one woke guy at 2:25
Can we stop using the stupid term woke, Id prefer to call it common sense
These working class men are surprisingly progressive!
@@optimisticwhovian1726 no.
@@bigtux11 Makes sense for the time. Gough Whitlam was leader of the Labor Party and eventually won the election in 1972. Probably the most progressive Prime Minister we've ever had.
I Miss this Australia 🇦🇺 💔
Imagine wearing different shades of black and calling it fashion
It still happens where I live among the men, sometimes I think I am the only one who wears white, red, green, yellow, pink and blue clothing
Australian working class humour used to use irony a lot...
Who is the interviewer? Shes so beautiful!
Her instagram is @ashleyabc
@@mertpala162 thanks!
She's probably dead
Dab Vitor nope, alive and still banging
Claire Dunne
This was 1967. In just a few short years, very long hair and bellbottoms were all the rage.
What a charming news story!
I loved the old Haymarket
Cape goes hard af
The days when London counted for anything
And now Australian tradies wear pink hi vis just as much as yellow so...
Aussie accents in Sydney!
The toupe at 2:36 😭 and the first lady being interviewed who thinks they're for sissies and Australia is a nation of drinkers- sis that's not a good thing
She didn't think it was so funny when he came home from drinking and gave her a good one upsjde her head.
At 2:45 That man's overall garment feature is the modern stylish. Actually, he looked like model
a beautiful man, the australian men are stunning, this is almost like bondi rescue haha
HAHAHA... love our old time TV program. It reflects the peaceful, happy old days that even just showed a London man's fashion walking in Victoria Market, but EVERYONE WAS SO HAPPY. This is our genuine Australian even now they are old and the young generation are still the same.
There were No drug, no psycho and everybody just work. HAHAHA Now only footie show still the same old days. HAHAHA
That was everywhere. The world today has crushed out genuineness and replaced it with posed smiles. I can't even remember when the last time I heard adults laughing together.
Being black and white loses some of the impact. I am glad they described the colours, I was wondering why so many onlookers were staring.
Im Canadian in a city called Hamilton and I love British menswear so much (I want to visit Savile Row!). I love peacoats, wool coats, flat and baker boy caps, double breasted sport coats/blazers etc. and I buy them made in the UK.
Very nice togs, although I think the cape looks better on the presenter, although the working class men's reaction isn't terrible, without the cameras there I'm not sure these male models would survive. Anything new causes a reaction, as the presenter pointed out about the mini skirt. Mind you nowadays they'd stand out as people are either mainly business or very casual. To me they look sharp not sissy, but I grew up in the 80s as a child with New Romanticism etc and mod revival so different generational outlook.
I wish they'd still make em like this. Hard to find nowadays
Love it
Is he wearing a hairpiece 2:32?
Robert De niro. Lol
Toupe alert
Pedro he sure is !
The first guy needed to wear black tights with shorts.
What so ever my parents told that colors wasn't black and white back in days but the only approvement may come only from a person from same time they lived in and I never believed. After seeing this I believe now there was no black and white and it was only on my TV screen.
Good, honest and down to earth people who could call a spade a spade without fear of being labelled by some frothing lefty.
I have no idea what you just said but it sounds great.
@@aleckushmerek1757 it made sense to me
@@cupcakemcsparklebutt9051 what did he say?
@@aleckushmerek1757 honest, kind, and friendly people who are willing to express their honest opinions without fear of offending some angsty people **cough** *liberals*
@@cupcakemcsparklebutt9051 Ah, I see, yeah I hate those damn liberals. They give us Democrats a bad name.
Haymarket area was Sydney's own Portabello Road.
Nothing like it.
At least it was similar.
I like the reporter's dress. And all the worker's garments HAHAHA except those two not so stylish fashion men.HAHAHA
The same reaction as ALL in video. HAHAHA
Sad but most people in this video are dead.!!
I am not dead one of this 2 guys were me
@@slanasik1187 да конечно, Аслан
auxetoiles my grandpa was born in 1947 and graduated school around 1960 and he still alive, he’s about 71
@Ladies Code - I respect the point you make, but was your Grandpa 13 when he graduated school?
Those were the days when Australian fashion was years behind the Brits.... but yer, the cape is a little too much
Tune I.D from the beginning?
Not many homeless people in those days.
Because the media didn't shot those homeless places.
Surprised they weren't glassed ..lol
At 2:52 that guy wearing gringest short i ever seen 😂 the croud probably laugh the way he dress
I think its an apron
I thinks he's wearing an apron
He's wearing work clothes with an apron.
Late 60s fashion and music...just when the drug culture kicked in ...:)
They really ran out of things to report. 😂
Where was this shot? In the paddy’s market! The crowd’s running a muck!
It was Haymarket, Sydney's Own Portabello Road.
I thought londoners wore the mod look back then. They just made this up.
Towards the end of the 60's the style started to become a lot more dandy. Which was the end of the 60's Mods.
2.33 what’s that little thing on top of your head, sir?
their pants hanging too short make their appearances juvenile
Hahaha
"Sissy"....the good old days when freedom of speech existed, and Men were Men.
Ah yes, nothing like good old fashioned freedom of speech to... tell a complete stranger what they should say, how they should act, or what they should wear 🤡
2:44 'I reckon they should be banned.' Ah yes, freedom.
@@Elitist20 were they banned? No...freedom.
@@richardjones3792 Lots of things were, though: bikinis (by Bondi Beach inspector Aub Laidlaw), books and films, homosexual acts, women from public bars, drinking in pubs after 6:00PM in South Australia at this time (and only legalised in Victoria the year before). And beyond the written laws there were Things You Didn't Do If You Knew What Was Good For You, Mate/Luv.
