In general, I've noticed that the 60s tended to focus on bright colors and geometrical prints. Hair styles were a bit stiff, (Think bouffants and Jackie Kennedy) and make-up was bold, especially with eyeliner.
The transition into the 1970s was subtle, it began by channeling the bright colors of the 60s into the disco look of the 70s. I notice that flare pants, sequins, and looser hairstyles became popular.
As the new decade progressed, fashion began to take a more casual turn. Hair took a more natural look, and sideburns/beards were back in style for men, and the disco style became toned down, resulting in what is considered to be the "70s hippie" look associated with guitar-playing, folk-singing American nomads.
