carl4981 Posted December 2, 2011 Posted December 2, 2011 Afternoon all, Im trying to be organised. Im going to a new years eve party and going dressed as a 70's dude but being a 80's/90's kid i have no clothes!!! Can anyone give any help as to where i can buy some 70's gear from in town as going Sunday. A fair few years back i helped a friend who got his stuff from the forum but dont think anything is there now that sells it. Any help will be greatly appreciated Thanks

Dizzyblonde Posted December 2, 2011 Posted December 2, 2011 70s is mainly about the hair. T shirt jeans, but big big hair and men need dodgy mo's denim was big in the seventies with flares and matching denim jackets. People wore clashing colours - watch quadraphenia I would think any charity shop / on the vintage shop on division street might help

Stand in it while punching two holes in one end, one for each leg, and another two for your arms in the other end. Then take the chain off the door, attach one end to your ear and the other to the end of your nose, and hang some razor blades from your other ear. No, stick the razor blades in your ear. It will look more real, man. Tell the dog your borrowing his collar and change the name of the tag from Fido to Duncan Disorderly. All you need now is some plastic sandals - £1 from Woolies at the time and now probably £70 on Division Street, oh well - some bongage straps to hang down from your bum - rip up a tea towel - and a felt tip pen to write the names of your favourite bands on your bin liner clothers - Vibrators, Slaughter and the Dogs, Subway Sect, et al. Carry a chainsaw and watch out for the Teds.

Any help will be greatly appreciated Thanks If you visit the Peace Gardens any day of the week you will find many experts on this type of clothing hanging around with the original attire, many of these are designers from all over Europe and further afield. Romanians, Polish, Albanians etc.. they even have the hairdo's to match.
charliewag Posted December 2, 2011 Posted December 2, 2011 try one of the 'boutiques' in barnsley. 70s gear has just arrived!
