70s Fashion

Glitter and glam


From hippie to disco to punk, this look book relives 1970s fashion via clothing advertisements from the decade. In between its covers you`ll find bell-bottoms and feathered hair mingling with platform shoes, Diane Von Furstenberg wrap dresses and endless amounts of polyester (what were they thinking?).

“Nada como el libro 70s Fashion publicado por TASCHEN. En su interior guarda una extensísima colección de anuncios de moda y belleza de la década de 1970, en los que resulta fascinante descubrir las formas y la provocación con la que se creaban muchos de estos anuncios.”
