Now wait just a doggone minit, Becky!  We didn't wear bobby socks in the 1970s!   Those days  were the 1950s.  LOL!


We all wore Danskins with the matching wrap skirts back in the 70's! (the women!)


 

 

Jazzy remember Huchapoo tops...they were that danskin material I think.   Were they popular only in NY or all over?

 

Thanks so much everyone....I really enjoyed reading this thread...brought back some GREAT memories.


I remember the Huckapoo tops or shirts. The men wore them too. I was never a fan of that style top/shirt.

 

 

I usually wore dresses to go dancing or those Danskin skirts-- I had one in coffee bean brown color and one in black. I think the body suits were in the same color. I don't even know if they sell Danskin anymore-- maybe to dancing schools??

 

I even found a black jumpsuit in the back of the cedar closet when we were redoing the utility room. You're not going to believe it, but it fit!!Smiley Very Happy

 

Middle son saw me in it and said: the 70's called and they want their jump suit back!! Woman LOL I ended up donating it.Woman Sad
