In the 1970s, fashion became increasingly individualistic for both men and women. Off-the-peg clothes - chiefly in classic, easy to wear styles - were mixed with fashions from the previous decade and with ethnic garment and accessories from around the world. The year-by-year format allows these developments to be shown in detail. Day Wear, Evening Wear, Sport and Leisure Wear, Accessories, Underwear and Wedding Wear are included, and complete descriptions of each garment accompanies each of the drawings, itemizing colour, cut, necklines, lapels, sleeves, pockets, fastenings, buttons and belts. The reference section includes a chart summarizing at a glance the evolution of fashion and garment-shapes, as well as biographies of outstanding 1970s designers.
