How did your first approach the topic?

Our first approach to the subject arose thanks to our musical taste. We like to enjoy rock music from many eras, and because of this we were curious to know and share how rock music has influenced society through the decades.

Our research was exhaustive, and we looked for singers and bands that influenced people anthropologically and ideologically. We also discovered how it impacted fashion and musical advancements. 

Rock was definitely like a revolution!!.

These singers went beyond just making music pleasing to the ears, they conveyed strong messages that make us think and think again as a society. 

Therefore, rock is situated as one of the first musical movements to become aware of the problems, injustices, and needs of the planet.

From rock's early beginnings, it has been associated with rebellion, considered to be against social and political norms. Rock and roll rejected adult-dominated culture, consumerism and conformity, and punk rejected all forms of social convention. 

In other words, rock took on the folk tradition of protest music, making political statements on issues such as war, religion, poverty, human rights, justice, and the environment. 

On the other hand, before the emergence of rock, clothing was much more formal, demure for women and impeccable for men.

Due to the war, many men had to march to the front and women began to take an important role in the workplace. This is how the pants were incorporated into the women's wardrobe.

All this changed with the arrival of the new style of rock music. With the desire to stand out and differentiate themselves, people began to experiment with more daring styles in accordance with their personality. Much had to do with the influence of musical groups, which promoted not only a new style of clothing, but also a new lifestyle.

The rockabilly style and its irruption in the United States in the fifties was one of the first. Great icons such as Elvis and Bill Halley marked for the first time a youthful look, with their tight pants and creepers. Then came David Bowie, with a very novel flamboyance, and Jimi Hendrix with psychedelics as rebellion.

Later, the sixties represented magnificently by The Beatles in their first stage with Beatle-style suits, miniskirts and very colorful clothes, bangs and long hair.

Definitely, these styles that were imposed years ago are still setting trends and the great designers still inspire their collections in the music that marked an entire era.
