Enough neckwear for a decade? (7)

I believe the answer is:
sixties
'a decade?' is the definition.
(eg the 1960s)
'enough neckwear' is the wordplay.
'enough' becomes 'six' (I can't explain this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'neckwear' becomes 'ties' (I've seen this in another clue).
'six'+'ties'='SIXTIES'
'for' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for sixties that I've seen before include "some years?" , "time to retire?" , "The Age of Aquarius" .)
