The 70s was the decade that true fashion was forgotten. I went from puberty to adulthood during the 70s. Same as my Kiwi mate Mal I lived thru without doubt the worst decade for fashion, style and culture ever in our two nations history. Who remembers such fashion monstrosities as elevated shoes (yes for men), the foot wide flared dacks (called bell bottoms) in the most horrendous colors, the styleless pastel floral shirts. Almost every male adorned this tasteless ensemble with an equally garish scarf.. either worn inside the shirt or out.. or superwide ties printed with the most outlandish motifs (below).
Take a gander at this lot. I look back and wince.. as we males from that era actually had to wear clothes like this. Who remembers 70s fashions?
