Fashion: New York is alive and kicking itself out of the 70
Fashion: New York is alive and kicking itself out of the 70s with a burst of fashion confidence. For as long as France and Britain led the pack. American designers borrowed ideas and the average US buyer just pressed her nose up against the shop-front styles that set Europe had in the 60s and 70 s. With the advent of disco-fever. It all changed and for the first time in 20 years. American girls are beginning to look like girls again and designers are queueing up to serve the welcome trend. Tight delight...stretch fabric by Vassarette with a moulded top. Designed by Liza Minnelli and Halston. January 1980 P017439

Fashion: New York is alive and kicking itself out of the 70s with a burst of fashion confidence. For as long as France and Britain led the pack, American designers borrowed ideas while the average US buyer admired European styles from afar. The 60s and 70s saw American fashion enthusiasts pressing their noses against shop-front windows, yearning for that European flair. But then came disco-fever, and everything changed. After two decades of longing, American girls finally started to look like girls again. A welcome trend swept across the nation, rejuvenating fashion in ways unseen since the heyday of the swinging sixties. This photo captures one such moment in time - a model showcasing a stunning body stocking designed by none other than Liza Minnelli and Halston themselves. The tight delight of stretch fabric by Vassarette hugs her curves flawlessly, accentuating every inch with elegance and style. January 1980 marked not only a new decade but also a turning point for American fashion. Designers eagerly queued up to serve this newfound confidence exuding from women everywhere. It was an era where individuality thrived through clothing choices; where self-expression took center stage on runways across New York City. As we gaze upon this image today, it serves as a reminder that fashion has always been cyclical - trends come and go, but true style remains timeless.
