About

Route 66 is the fashion-and-lifestyle aesthetic centred on America's 'Main Street' — the 2,400-mile Chicago-to-Santa-Monica highway that, in its 1940s-to-1960s heyday, ran past neon-lit diners, kitschy roadside attractions, teepee motels and the Googie-design service stations of mid-century America. The visual palette is dominated by a desert backdrop of dusty browns and reds, accented by 1950s pastel hues (pink, mint green) and chrome silver from the period's automobiles. Neon signage is paramount. The fashion vocabulary blends Americana and Western: vintage denim, Western shirts, leather jackets, motorcycle boots, sunglasses, bandanas, bomber jackets, white tees, varsity pieces and route-themed graphic tees. The aesthetic feeds rockabilly, vintage Americana, biker and roadside-Americana imagery.

Not Americana — Route 66 is the specifically road-trip-and-roadside subset of Americana with neon-and-Googie nostalgia; Americana is the broader mid-century-American heritage genre.
