We owe a lot to the free-spirited youths of the ‘60s for liberating society from the suffocating trend of white picket fence fashion.
Coachella has much to thank hippies for helping them gain millions of attendees who are all eager to dress in bohemian styles from head to toe.
More than half a century later, hippie fashion is still alive and kicking as the unofficial music festival dress code.
Or maybe as a quick outfit to wear for last-minute Halloween parties.
But even though the world has moved on from the era of peace, love, and harmony, The Sims can still benefit from a major throwback with these free CCs that exhibit the best of hippie and boho fashion!
If you think a fringe is atrocious, then you must be confusing hippies with hipsters.
Fringe vests and tops often serve as a hippie’s pièce de résistance, especially during the 1969 Woodstock Music Festival.
Despite not being Jimi Hendrix’s iconic white fringe jacket, this Fringe Mini Skirt is still inspired by the Native American style that hippies adopted in their multicultural fashion.
And obviously, it’s a cute skirt that would look divine with neutral-colored booties!
As champions of peace and positivity, hippies often wear rose-colored glasses – specifically the round vintage sunglasses that John Lennon used to wear.
Nowadays, bohemian trendsetters are wearing more modern eyewear to adapt with the times.
But IMO, nothing beats these small rounded shades that could barely hide those crazy eyes.
This CC has clear and coated versions with a vibrant collection of 10 colors each to match your Sim’s erratic but hip personality.
When nailing the bohemian aesthetic, it’s sacrilegious to not have at least three maxi dresses.
With its flowy ankle-length skirt and refreshing sleeveless style, a maxi dress is built for hippie comfort that could outlast even the worst wipeouts.
But the best feature of this boho-styled dress is its ever-changing fabric, colors, and patterns.
This can make a gorgeous boho-chic out of your Sim.
To deliver more mind-blowing info, this dress has a staggering amount of 183 swatches, the most I’ve seen in a single CC!
According to the hippie style rule book, wearing less is more.
Whereas others took this rule by heart (attending festivals naked as the day they were born), others preferred a more stylish approach.
If you find tank tops and peasant skirts a lackluster pairing, adding on a Florence Kimono can do just the trick to elevate your Sims’ look and keep them from getting mosquito bites.
This CC has 25 swatches and a flowery design that will definitely make happy hippies.
Hippie accessories contrast the jewelry worn by typical housewives back in the conservative ‘50s.
They loved long-beaded necklaces, leather bracelets, and leather headbands.
But not as much as they adored flowers.
Flower crowns are an obvious accessory choice when starting your hippie-bohemian wardrobe. But why not take it a step further and have actual flowers woven in your hair?
If we’re talking about a hippie’s desire to feel in tune with nature, this Primrose Hair CC achieves that and more.
Plus with 63 swatches available, I’d say this CC is nothing but magical.
Let’s face it: free time is precious, and weekends are sacred.
Who has the time to sort through hundreds of tops and bottoms on The Sims Resource?
CC creator Chalipo thought about the same thing and did us all a favor by compiling outfits that hippies would horde from a thrift store.
There are floral jumpsuits, Indian-printed maxi skirts, you name it – this CC has everything you would ever need for your Sim to become a true hippie at heart.
Even though a lot of neo-hippies sport dreads (thus creating a modern stereotype), the decision to get one isn’t always based on its status as a trendy hairstyle.
Dreadlocks have been around for millennia not because it’s cool, but because it has deep ties to one’s spirituality.
It symbolizes freedom and this hairstyle is a form of self-expression.
This CC simply shows just how gorgeous dreads are when mixed with free-loving fashion, even more so in 16 colors.
Peasant skirts are a bit hard to pull off without looking like an old lady (if your Sim is not already).
And since we’re listing the best boho CCs, we’re going to have to find a miracle – in the form of Laupipi’s Lirio Boho.
Despite not bearing the same crinkly and flouncy texture of typical peasant skirts, the Lirio Boho can still deliver that gypsy flair that hippies took inspiration from.
I can also guarantee that the 13 swatches available are 100% stylish for all ages!
It’s disappointing that maxi dresses aren’t that popular in real life, considering the world is literally (and figuratively) burning up to supernova degrees.
But our Sims are in for a treat with this Nina dress that just oozes airy luxury and subtle sexiness.
If you’re gunning for that hippie fairy look, then you don’t have to wish for much.
The Nina has 4 patterns, 8 solid colors, and 6 mixed colors to bring out your Sim’s carefree personality.
