Talk about full-rise briefs--they look like they come up past the navel. The blue set could almost make it, but giraffe prints, canary yellow and the geometric patterns are hideous.

Is is like a window into another universe.

The crochet and belted-sweaters makes me wonder WTF were they thinking. Some of the other outfits look like they came from Logan's Run.

There is a PART of me (A small part I think) that wishes somehow that we were as unselfconscious there days that we could dress like that...

Or is there any fashion going on now that will once day look this ridiculous?

fit into that category. And of course anything that Kim Kardashian wears is also fair game.

Hopefully there will be a time when it seems simply grotesque to stick a pin through your tongue, nipple or other place.

Well on the way, methinks.

And de-evolution is definitely true.

...flying squadron to which my husband was assigned, and one of the pilots was wearing a pale green leisure suit/jumpsuit that was quite snug. one of the more outspoken wives quietly commented to me, "Well, you can tell he's circumcised." She was right - you could.

yes INDEED

Shut my...mouth?


What?

Going to butcher a chicken in all that white ?

I don't even want to know what the thought process was, as to that one.

Cannot be unseen.

Could not click on the link. Nightmares would ensue.

...my.

I actually saw something that looked like that in the famous redlight district of Paris back in 1974. It was in the window of a sex shop and looked like a wetsuit (all black rubber) with a penis. I was in my early 20s at the time, and still a bit shockable.

Perhaps that same red light window was his inspiration.

I see Ken dolls!

I had three pairs of overalls. A white and red pin stripe and a very light weight white cotton which were both great for the summer. Then the standard heavier blue denim.

No need to wear a bra with any of them--just a sleeveless t-shirt So very comfortable.

and looked at some of those amazing outfits.

I don't remember many men dressing like this. Really.

Well, looks like we know what Lindsey Graham (upper left) was doing in the 70s now.

Remember their big hit New York Groove in the 70s? Lindsey was the lead singer.

the elastic is shot but the stuff is still really groovy .

Paging Rick Santorum!

Really worthy. And we even had suits. http://www.thepeoplehistory.com/1978fashions.html

Thank god I wasn't born in the 1970s, I'd rather be a nudist then year any of that ugly crap.

No one made or wore those things. Comments under the pictures are hilarious.

Ugggggggggggh

take the hunk in the red pants in the middle of #2 photo at the link

I think the only thing I saw from all those pictures that I would wear today was that Mighty Mouse shirt.

wtf is going on in that ad?!

no.

People took a lot of drugs back then so don't judge.

Was there a strike of the Underwear Models Union at the time? Those guys look like they were hired at the pub next door.
