FASHION IN THE 70´s!

The body should look sexy and naturally athletic. It was artificial and brilliant, for others the revolutionary attitude of the partisan and persons social outcasts.

The trend towards the natural fashion, it obtained the acceptance of the Afro look, handkerchiefs of colors in the head, shoes with platform, bell-shaped trousers, maxi dresses or skirts and monkeys, mixing stamped colors.

In the discotheques and night clubs the history was different, to remain in these places it was required radiance and sheen.

The 70s was a topic of long discussions. For some persons the ideal fashion was the Hippie, extremely naturally, for other persons they were the stars of rock, which

The women were showing an elegant and natural aspect, with little makeup and of soft colors.

The hairdressing was the style of Charlie's Angels, it was the haircut most imitated.

“PRESENT DAY”

The Afro hairdressing is a natural tendency that was in use in the 70s and that today returns with all. Along with some advice: a good pending and hanging make you look sophisticated and complete your look. Also they have turned the handkerchiefs in the head with showy colors together with the way of tying they will clear and illuminate your face.

Respect with to the shoes, if is difficult for you to walk with shoes of heel, a few good platforms are more comfortable and they have returned to remain. The pants are of return, only that this time they aren´t so bell-shaped as in the 70s.

To mix prints is fashionable nowadays, but the line that it separates to do it well and to meet ridiculous is very fine, this doesn´t leave to margin for error.

The dresses and the super long skirts, of the style hippie are used more that never, you can create beautiful and original styles with them.

The monkeys are the last mode but they aren´t new at all, they are of many years behind.

“COMPARISON OF THE MODE”

The fashion of the 70s was characterized by a marked free spirit, spirit inherited from the "hippie“ style. The company opted for the more original, funnier and very comfortable fashion, for every day and to attend all kinds of events.

Men and women were choosing between a varied selection of designs that were repeating themselves and of fact it marked the whole decade. The dresses were characterized by his floral print, the blouses marked with a "Bohemian" style, were combining them with shorts of flowers or long skirts.

The footwear fashionable in that epoch is what more has evolved though it has recovered to take heels of high platforms and sandals. Nowadays abound the shirts with surfer-style, very lovely sweatshirts, rucksacks, slippers … This fashion is as striking as it was at the time.

The masculine fashion that we know to the present day, it has changed very slowly and it maintains a recognizable beginning, however women's fashion is fashion that more has evolved.

The difference between the masculine and feminine fashion, it is that the man looks for the practical thing and the women seek to highlight his femininity, leading them to be nothing practical in this epoch.

The fashion differs much what was in an epoch, the spontaneous fashion, she exploited, of alive colors, not proposed by the industry but chosen by the consumers. This fashion is the most original.

The way of dressing of boys and girls for many years has been almost identical. But … now we don´t all dress the equal ones of grey, but it seems that we all were dressing be equal, maybe of jeans.

I can affirm, that the jeans are the best fashionable discovery.

“PERSONAL OPINION”

The reality is that fashion that I like is the current one, but with the essence of the 1970´s. In these years the spirit was free, we didn´t have sense of the ridiculous... today, we look very much by our physical appearance and if someone dresses differently to of our fashion or we are accustomed, we automatically reject it and we marginalize. In this fashion, there is much to choose from, but if you sales of the closed fashion, the society will be excluded.

Really I like showy colors, such as orange, purple... I feel that these colors give me strength. It´s one of the things that I like most of the 70's, I love the hippie style! but with the variety of clothes and colors of today.
