People say that the 70's was hideous for fashion but I quite like it, have to say.

No idea, but summer is best for seeing what the female species is wearing.

That even works in scotland, despite the rubbish weather - I think it's a biological clock thing - come the summer months, rain or shine the kit comes off...wierd

..true , but where to they all go in the winter?

 

[SamNichols]

Any era where tweed is the garment of choice in the day time and black tie the garment of choice in the night time (the 20s?)

As Lenny Henry once said, "We had style in the seventies, oh yes we did, it was crap mind"
the late 80's, early 90's for me though

 

[Dayvo]

Any hot summer's day here: loose skimpy cotton dresses and blouses, and just being to make out the shape and colour of a thong.

It's all year round here in the North-East! On a Friday and Saturday night, anyway!

My fave era is the 50s (before I was born, mind) when all women seemed to have large and very pointy breasts...

60's, picture slim fitting suits, narrow lapels, tapered trousers with two inch turn ups, crisp white shirts and narrow ties...then someone like frank sinatra, samm davis jr, dean martin etc all the kings of hollywood wearing them...can you picture it...i knew you could!

[dangerousjules]

mmmmmmmmmm fair comment, was'nt certain this thread was gender specific!

 

[Keith Oates]

I don't know if it was supposed to be either, but what the heck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[alecstilleyedye]

post punk and alternative 80s. flares were shite in the 70s and i couldn't believe they made a comeback.

on the minus side, i doubt i'd look as dashing in stretched jeans these days
