dress of my dreams “Dress of my Dreams embodies empowerment through the spirit of the times that was the 1960s. The 1960s were known for the youth revolution and a decade of change. Empowerment was shown throughout this decade as many historical events took place. The Vietnam war raged, Apollo 11 landed on the moon, and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. delivered his famous “I have a dream” speech. These events helped shape the 60s into a decade of constant change. With every change, there was a greater outcome, which was ultimately due to empowerment. Individuals in the 1960s stood up for what they believed in and made dreams a reality. ” — Morgan Bettencourt Slide 1 Slide 1 (current slide)
