At the same time, punk fashion developed in England in the 70s. And it was also about freedom, rebellion, individuality and anti-mainstream. Torn pieces of clothing held together with safety pins, tights with ladders, worn leather jackets, heavy boots, lots of black, red and green, often in a checked pattern, characterized the style of youth culture.

70’s fashion: how do you wear the style today?

What was worn back in the 70s is still present today. With slight modifications and/or new style partners, we find bell-bottoms, platform shoes, metallic dresses and co. in the current trends. We show the key pieces:

The bell-bottoms

Flared, high-waisted trousers were one of the big trends in the 70s. And while in the 2000s flared pants were still in demand as a waist-high variant, the flared pants are currently back in the 70s version with a high waistband; whether made of suit fabric, denim or satin. Today we’re wearing crop tops, skinny turtlenecks and blazers. Sneakers work great, as do high heels and booties and platform pumps, which were also a trend in the 70s.

The jeans

Jeans were already in demand in several facets in the 70s. Among other things, as high-rise flared jeans, like those worn by Jane Birkin. Anyway, we could adopt her look one-to-one for today. White mini shirt or shirt plus bucket bag – a perfect vintage outfit that works then as now.
