Campervan craze!
Campervans or often nicknamed 'hippy vans' originated from the 1960s. They have gained this nickname purely as the stereotype is that the subcultural 'hippies' owned and lived in them first. You could say they were a very popular trend at the time, used for both fashion and function. This has followed through to our decade, even if our campervans aren't so extravagant! Campervans nowadays are often used as a way of transport to special occasion events, like weddings and proms more than a way of everyday transport unlike the use of them in the 60s. The appearance of the campervan in the 60s was much a reprehensive of the clothing at the time. Loud, vibrant colours and outgoing patterns was commonly interpreted. Floral was very popular, as you can see from this photograph!!
