Retro images

I wanted to include some inspiration from 1950s-70s magazines as well as magazines in that style because my target demographic are aged 16-25 meaning they are part of Generation Z and will most likely be interested in media, fashion and general culture that is considered to be "retro". Younger audiences, including myself, tend to be inclined to enjoy certain aspects of the aesthetics of periods of time before they were alive to reminisce something they did not have or experience. If I do employ aspects of this era within the aesthetics, I will make sure to keep in mind that although younger audiences tend to enjoy the aesthetics of this era, they do not necessarily agree with or reflect the traditions, beliefs, needs, wants and values of this era as younger people of the current zeitgeist tend to be more socially aware and left-leaning that younger audiences in that time period. 

Along with this, I wanted to draw parallels between the "Rise of the Teenager" in the 1950s to teenagers and young people of this age to highlight some similarities and differences between them through the use of the aesthetics of that period.
