Be honest: Would you wear these 1970s fashions?
How do you feel about polyester, velour and bell bottoms?
The 1970s certainly had a look. The clothing was funky and bold. Man-made materials were hot (quite literally). Pants were both too tight and too loose. Everything flared.
The fashions of the decade can be quite divisive. Yet you still see all of them today. Well, perhaps not leisure suits.
We're going to show you some catalog looks from the Seventies. Tell us if you would wear these items — or perhaps you once did.

I'm fonder of some of these than others, it seems...I dig platforms, bellbottoms/flares, velour, translucent/transparent anything, western style, & denim jackets w/ jeans (but ideally one or both is a color other than the typical blue.) Colorful leisure suits are kinda cool. Hate gouchos. Never complained about polyester.
