1970s Fashion That Slapped So Hard We Want to Build a Time Machine and Go Shopping

Don't you find it strange that we don't have a distinct "look" these days? If we look back exactly 100 years to the Roaring 20s, fashion had a unique style; you could instantly identify people from the 1920s just by their clothes. if you look back at past decades - the 1940s, 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, and 90s—each of these decade had its own unmistakable fashion trend. But ever since the new millennium arrived, it feels like people just started dressing… "normal," whatever that means.

Today's fashion has no unique style, no single trend dominating the scene. It feels like everyone is shopping at the exact same stores, making the exact same clothes. well, in this listicle we are celebrating our favorite decade when it comes to fashion - the 1970s, a decade that emphasized individuality and freedom. These images are enough to inspire us to solve time travel just so we could go back and go shopping. These clothes are far-out groovy, they are hip and Outta-Sight and other slang words only our parents used.
