hey dudes, i'm designing a piece that i want to give a classy, 60s sort-of vibe (think capote, black-and-white ball, etc).
i'm just not sure where to go with the type treatment at this point. i was thinking maybe an ultra condensed sans-serif like univers??
any other suggestions? i'm kinda stuck
Chalet might work.
Chalet by House can be both fun and formal
Extended grotesques always look 60s to me. Akzidenz-Grotesk Extended, Trade Gothic Extended or Helvetica Neue Extended come to mind. Script is also very sixties, particularly Stormtype's Splendid Script.
I like the Univers idea.

thanks duderz. chalet looks like it might be quite perfect.
i was also thinking extended grotesks at first.. but it just wasn't fitting the vibe.
