The start of the 1960s carried over most of the 1950s purse and handbag styles. 1960s handbags were sold in matching sets with shoes, belts, gloves and other accessories. As the decade progressed and the formal or classy look was replaced by the youthful mod style handbags became minimalist and futuristic with new plastic materials.
