By avi maxwel / in , , , , /

Fashion is in a constant state of evolution. Past trends are borrowed and reinvented to create new trends, or at least newer versions of an existing style. For example, the flares and halter tops labeled modern Y2K fashion actually originated a few decades prior, pioneered by ’70s style icons. Even fairycore borrows some key elements from the period. So in case you’re interested in embracing 1970s fashion trends, we’ve rounded up 11 iconic celebrity outfits from the decade, along with the way models, musical artists, and actresses are wearing those same looks today.




Keep scrolling for our favorite ’70s fashion trends to wear today.
