=1970’s fashion= Began with a continuation of the mini skirts, bell-bottoms and the androgynous hippie look from the late 1960s. These include platform shoes which appeared on the fashion scene in 1971 and often had soles 2-4 inches thick. These were worn by both men and women. Wide-legged, flared jeans and trousers were another fashion mainstay for both sexes

=Early 1970’s= Jeans remained frayed, and the tie dye shirts and Mexican peasant blouses. In addition to the mini skirt, mid-calf length dresses called "midis" and ankle-length dresses called "maxis". A variety of the "maxi" was the high-necked "granny" dress. This was typically worn with lace-up boots and chokers. Jeans waistlines lowered to 4 inches or even less as "hip huggers" with "bell-bottoms" became the height of denim fashion.

Jordache Jeans

=Late 1970's= Neckties became wider and bolder, and shirt collars became long. The zippered jumpsuit was popular with both men and women. Neck-scarves were also used. Skin-tight Spandex trousers, tube tops, and slit skirts were popular for a while at the very end of the decade. There was a brief craze for transparent plastic trousers worn with leotards underneath. Silk blouses, spaghetti-strapped tank tops and shirt-waist dresses were also worn.

Fashion Pictures

The buttons were covered and the lapels wide. Teenage girls and young women the crop top was often worn, sometimes with a halter neck or else tied in a knot above the midriff. hip-huggers were replaced by the high-waisted jeans and trousers with wide, flared legs.

Miniskirt

=Hairstyles= Other hairstyles of the early to mid 1970s included the wavy "gypsy" cut, the layered shag, and the "flicked" style in which the hair was flicked into resembling small wings at the temples, punk singer Debbie Harry of Blondie sparked a new trend with her shoulder-length, dyed platinum blonde hair worn with a long fringe (bangs).

=Punk= Punk as a style originated from London from the designer Vivienne Westwood and her partner Malcolm McLaren. Punk had at its heart a manifesto of creation through disorder. Punk fashion can be traced to the ripped jeans, torn t-shirts, scrappy haircuts, and worn and torn leather jackets sported by members of the Sex Pistols. bands had shown up in cities across the world. Some small elements that spoke of a person's punk roots were safety pins, black PVC or tartan bondage trousers, leopard-print t-shirts.

Roller Skates As materials and technology advanced, wheels and skates became slicker and faster, and roller-skating became more fun. By the mid-1970s, thousands of roller rinks had opened across the United States. Most rinks combined disco with skating, so patrons could skate under the mirror ball and groove to the music of K. C. and The Sunshine Band while they strutted their stuff.

Disco In the 1970s, disco arrived armed with keyboards, drum machines, sugary lyrics, and extended dance breaks. Artists such as the BeeGees, ABBA, and Donna Summer made their way into the hearts of people in America. Bell-bottom pants, feathered hair, and big sunglasses were all disco accessories. Most people knew the lyrics to "Stayin' Alive“. Disco music, disco dancing, and disco culture usually get a bad rap for being frivolous and over the top, but today's pop, techno, and club music all have their roots in disco.

Pet Rock California entrepreneur Gary Dahl was joking one night in 1975 about the perfect pet. It wouldn't eat, make noise, or need to be potty trained and that a rock would fit the bill. Everyone laughed, but within two weeks, he had written The Pet Rock Training Manual and marketed the idea at a trade show. A story in Newsweek and an appearance on The Tonight Show followed, and, within a few months, a million pet rocks had sold for $3.95 a piece. Dahl made a dollar for each rock sold, making him an instant millionaire.

Smiley The graphic was popularized in the early 1970s by Bernard and Murray Spain, who seized upon it in a campaign to sell novelty items. The two produced buttons as well as coffee mugs, t-shirts, bumper stickers and many other items emblazoned with the symbol and the phrase "Have a happy day"
