*THERE WERE S0 MANY DIFFERRENT THINGS HAPPENING IN THE 70'S BESIDES* *CLOTHES AND HERE IS A LOOK AT SOME OF THEM*
DISCO WAS CERTAINLY A WORD THAT YOU WOULD HAVE HEARD A LOT OF IN THE 70'S, IT WAS A STYLE OF DANCING AND MUSIC.
IT WAS MOST MEMORABLE FOR ITS HOT PANTS LOOK AND SPANDEX TOPS, THE PANTS LOOKING SHINY WITH CLINGING LYCRA STRETCH FABRICS IN MANY COLOURS , THE SHIRTS BEING BASICALLY THE SAME BUT WITH MORE VIBRANT COLORS.
THERE WERE MANY OTHER WORDS TO DESCRIBE THE DISCO ERA TOO. LIKE TROUSERS, WHICH STARTED AS A SMALL FLARE AND GOT A LOT BIGGER AS THE YEARS WENT ON.
THE ACTRESSES IN CHARLIE'S ANGELS INFLUENCED THE LOOK OF LARGE FLARED TROUSERS AND THE LOOK OF THE ROUGH CUT HAIR STYLE.
JOHN TRAVOLTA IN THE MOVIE SATURDAY NIGHT FEVER OF 1977 ALSO INFLUENCED THE LOOK OF DISCO, HE WAS DRESSED MOSTLY IN A FLARE LEG SUIT THROUGH OUT THE WHOLE MOVIE.
ALSO THERE WERE PLATFORM SHOES WHICH BECAME VERY POPULAR THROUGHOUT THE 70'S, THEY WERE WORN A LOT WITH THE DISCO SUITS OF THE TIMES.
PEOPLE STARTED TO TWIST THEIR ANKLES AS THE PLATFORMS GOT BIGGER SO THIS IS WHEN CLOGS GOT POPULAR BECAUSE THEY WERE A LOT STURDIER BUT STILL HAD THAT CHUNKY LOOK.
THE HIPPIES OF THE SIXTIES HAD BROUGHT WITH THEM CLOTHES FROM OTHER ETHNIC GROUPINGS WHICH TRAVELED RIGHT INTO THE 70'S AND STAYED VERY POPULAR FOR MOST OF THE DECADE. SOME OF THE CLOTHING BROUGHT FROM THE 70'S WERE KAFTANS, KIMONOS, MUUMUUS, AND MANY MORE. THEY WERE MADE WITH EVERY DIFFERENT KINDS OF FABRIC IMAGINABLE AND MOST LOOKED GOOD IN ANY COLOR.
