1960년대와 70년대 초기 미국은 인도의 음악, 철학, 종교, 복식 등, 다양한 문화 양식에 관하여 강한 관심을 나타냈고 이는 청년층의 반문화적 행동유형에 의해 시작되어 전반적인 사회계층으로 확산된 문화현상의 한 예로 설명되었다. 이에 본 논문은 Gentlemen's Quarterly 와 Sears and Roebuck Co. Catalgue를 이용하여 수집된 자료를 내용분석법으로 처리하여 미국 남성복에 나타난 인도복식의 영향과 사회계층별 차이점에 관한 실증적인 연구를 시도하였다 연구결과에 따르면 이 시기의 미국 남성복식에 보여진 인도의 영향은 주로 네루 스타일의 복식(Nehru jacket/suit Nehru collar Nehru hat)과 Indian sandal과 jewelry tie-dye와 madras로 의복 직물 악세서리등 다양하게 나타났다 그러나 인도복식으로부터 받은 영향의 내용과 정도는 사회계층에 따라 그 차이가 뚜렷하여 중류층에서는 제한된 종류의 스타일의 단기간 동안 채택되었으나 상류층에서는 다양한 스타일이 비교적 오랜 기간동안 지속되었던 것으로 밝혀졌다 이러한 결과는 중류층의 남성복식이 새롭고 비관습적인 스타일의 채택에 대하여 보수적인 양상으로 띠는 것으로 해석된다. 더불어 인도복식의 영향이 1968년을 절정으로 나타남으로서 이시기의 사회변화가 복식에도 그대로 반영되고 있음으로 보여주고 있다
