’70s Style Icons

Way more than just bell bottoms, peasant blouses, and platform shoes, 1970s fashion was as eclectic as it was adventurous, an explosion of head-turning styles that ranged from timeless to funky to far out. This collection brings together some of the quintessential films of the era featuring the stars who defined its most iconic looks, including Robert Redford, Diane Keaton, Donna Summer, Jane Fonda, Richard Roundtree, Barbra Streisand, and more.

Looking for a place to start?
Check out Redford’s perfect Ivy League prep in Three Days of the Condor, Summer’s down-to-disco glam in Thank God It’s Friday, and Fonda’s boho-chic shag in Klute. Then take your pick between the quirky-cute Streisand of What’s Up, Doc? and A Star Is Born’s rock-goddess Babs.
