Poncho? Check. Leg warmers? Check. Tank top? Check. Platform shoes? Oh yeah, baby! Culottes? Check. Well, I was a child of the 70s...
These weren't my worst fashion faux pas, though. What about hot pants with white PVC elastic topped boots? Full Bay City Rollers kit. My school uniform - trousers 45 inches at the hem, 3 button waistband and patch pockets on the sides, nylon check blouse with puff sleeves, 3 button cuffs and pear drop collar, hand-knitted jumper with 12 inch ribbing and platform sandals.Black shirt with fuschia footless tights (and nothing else
). Olivia Newton-John stylie lycra pants and off-the-shoulder number with clear plastic stilleto mules. Floor length full skirt and Clarks' Polyveldts (what can I say, I was a Northern Soulie - back flips a speciality). Stayprest polyester trousers with "stirrups", white pointed kitten-heel stilletoes and a parka (what can I say, I was a mod revivalist). Pleated full velour trousers laced at the ankle with flat patent Mary-Janes and white blouson shirt with huge sleeves and front frill (what can I say, I was a New Romantic - but, in my defence, before it became "mainsteam"
).
I think I may have revealed too much.
OOOOHHH!
I think I went out with you Debs!
You didn't become an Air Stewardess did you?
