Poll question: Ok What was up with fashion designers in the 70s?
I was watching some old school Family Feud, and holy shit, the suits the guys are wearing are in simply fugly colors! What the fuck was up with the designers?

1. Hey!
Was there something wrong with my Flower Power t-shirt and red extra wide bell bottom jeans?

Wait...it was the forest green cords with the knee high moccasins?

3. Acid was a popular "cocktail". Look at the shag carpeting, harvest gold &
avocado green appliances.

4. They'll be saying the same thing in 2034 about today...
..."What was up with the super low-cut jeans and thong underwear and the ass tattoos? What were they THINKING?"

6. My boring theory
is that it is the fault of the plague of man-made fibers and their manufacturers' desire to distinguish them from natural fibers (with nturally eye-pleasing colors).

Oh, how MODERN!
