1970s - Fashion on Paper

In college I studies architecture

and of all the times for America to become a rich country

how sad it had happened in the 1970s

Even Disney World itself suffered from this period

however, on the other side of the artistic spectrum

we find art and fashion

which brought us color, youth and timeless classics.

While 70's fashion is in full revival

concrete structures made to last the age of time are being torn down.

I've always been drawn to 1970s illustrations

from sewing patterns to Japanese Anime

so I was so excited when I stumbled upon

this set of vintage fashion dolls

made by the Whitman Company in 1970

for just $3!

I'm not sure if I have all the pieces

but they are in great played with condition.

There are some awesome outfits

that I wouldn't mind owning!

even "ken" has some pretty sharp getups

but what amused me more than anything

are the matching hunter green suites

for the bride and groom!

I also recently found two great fashion plate toys

both made by the Tomy Toy Company

in the late 1970s.

I remember loving these as a little girl!

I can't believe I found these with not one missing plate!

This set is equally fun

with all the elements a child might need

to make there momma

one very special card.
