I need some brainstorming...

my 'baby' sister is getting married in June in So. Cal. Since this is the second time for them both, they wanted to do things differently. They're calling it 'WedStock' and want the guests to dress up in Woodstock-era clothing. They're even having a costume contest. Whack, I know, but they are.
So, does anyone have any groovy ideas for a 'costume'? Any responses appreciated!

Just try not to look like the Manson family...

Minimally, I wish I could find those frames for myself.

kids. Maybe some online costume company has the wardrobe for "Hair". I'm sure that musical is done often.
