Would you believe that jumpsuits are supposedly making a comeback!? I HATED those things - they were the WORST (for us girls at least) when you had to pee REALLY bad (like at a kegger!) |

We may laugh at the fashions now, but everyone got laid in the 70s. :wink: Maybe they couldn't wait to take off all that uncomfortable polyester! |

I've been looking around for a unisex Style Thread because I have a burning question: Are aloha and loud shirts and flowery island dresses the only acceptable attire at a bar or party? What about suits? It seems that suits have been claimed by Mad Men fans. I'm concerned the fashion police will grill me on episodes (I don't watch Mad Men) if we were to show up in suits and dresses...like the kind you see in old tiki bar photos... so elegant. I dress like an aging art student, and could use some HELP! thx |

Amy, one of the really unspoken things is the Prep/Tiki connection. If you thumb through the Official Preppy Handbook -- dunno about the sequel, haven't read it -- you will spot MANY references to Tiki spots as places to be. (Lots of Trader Vic's references, for example.) I can't imagine the Social Register crowd rocking any look other than their own. |

:wink: This thread seems to be more about threads and furniture and not tiki. There weren't any tikis on the aloha wear. :lol: I think this is Howie Munson (Douglas Barr) from Fall Guy. |
