I know they are all hideous pieces and completely unwearable today, but I have to say I do wish more people still dressed with such personality. I'll take giant contrast patchwork point hems and pink daisy-splosion over velour sweats any day.
Holy mackeroly. Actresses Shelley Hack on cover and Season Hubley in photo 5. I was actually crocheting and wearing stuff like this in 1972. Yikes, I'm old!
Once again, I could see some cool/hip girl totally making these rock today. Except for the poor pin-the-doily-on-the-pink-sweater. Umm, her hair is cute!
I'm a full-time graphic designer who likes to thrift, craft & take photos in my spare time.

I can see these being worked up in some modern soft yarns. The shapes are great although I'm not really sure about all of the color combinations.
I'm not sure how carefree I would be if that dude in the last picture was lurking over my shoulder. Yikes!
thanks for your comments everyone - I love to hear what you have to say when I post things like this!
