1970s Fashion

In the seventies lipsticks were beige, blah and nude Dull, usually colorless and odorless, not to be rude. Bright reds of the forties and fifties were passe’, out. The lightest of peaches could be applied to a pout. Women were expected to be straight up and down. Twiggy at twenty, twenty, twenty, was paraded around. Rubenesque chesty women were considered way out of bound. Emaciated starving young models were the talk of the town.
