Fashion from the 1970s. A colorful and unique insight into international fashion labels
In the world of fashion, the 70s were a decade that spawned a whole host of original style experiments, including hippie flower power, blue jeans, the folklore look, the mini and maxi styles, platform shoes, hotpants, flares, polyester shirts, pinafore dresses, psychedelic floral prints, disco glam and punk/New Wave. Geometric patterns and garish colors such as orange, green, turquoise, yellow, pink and red were very much the order of the day. The exhibition will offer visitors a colorful and unique insight into international fashion labels and the Munich fashion scene. Featuring original clothing and accessories for ladies, men and children, it is divided into a number of different themed sections that convey the diversity, originality and often contradictory nature of 70s fashion. A collection of trendy poster adverts, cool music posters, stylish art work, elegant fashion photographs and copies of the Madame fashion magazine, all from the 1970s, rounds off a colorful and diverse experience.
