The Space Age is a time period encompassing the activities related to the Space Race, space exploration, space technology, and the cultural developments influenced by these events. The Space Age is generally considered to have begun with Sputnik (1957). Furthermore it is argued that this age brought a new dimension to the Cold War.
In fashion, designers, such as Paco Rabanne, Pierre Cardin and André Courrèges, created the space age look.
