At the height of my 70s gorgeousness I was known to wear a midnight blue velvet jacket with lapels the size of concordes wings, a bright yellow shirt, a red tie the width of wordsworth avenue, pale blue bell bottomed high waisted trousers, 4 inch brown platform shoes and extremely bright socks.
Y fronts with the words "Come and get it" on the front too. and to top it all off, My hair was in the german helmet style.

Now, how could ANY female resist that!

Utterly gorgeous. especially when i was wearing brut 45 aftershave.

What did you wear on the occasions you didn't wear trousers?
I do hope you were not one of the skin heads with whom I had altercations with :) (I had long hair in those days - all gone now)
