Floral: Look. Look into my midriff mandala. Lose your "self" and become one with creation.
Yellow: I represent the Sun, and thus life itself.
Green: I represent all other living things, given life by the Sun. Or, possibly, avocados. It's hard to tell. I mean, my midriff triangle could represent the avocado seed, right?
Floral: Focus, ladies!

A Dress A Day 
Contrast inset = bad 70’s fashion. I wouldn’t care for a yellow version, but View 3 is the only one that’s even remotely wearable.

I agree that the contrast bit is seriously dated, but, otherwise, that’s not a bad pattern at all.
I’ve come to the conclusion that Seventies design has been unfairly lumped into one category and maligned. Yes, the 1969-1973-ish era was pretty horrific, but the mid-Seventies have a lot of nice, simple, patterns that are really pretty good if one can get past the winged hair and freaky colors in the pattern illustrations.

I like this pattern. If one ignores the colors and the contasting insets, it’s very classic and wearable. Now, if I can just find it in a real person size! My local Salvation Army has BINS of patterns, so I guess I’ll have to spend an afternoon searching.

I have multiple copies of this one. Let me know what bust measurement you need; I may very well have it.

I agree: some of the mid-Seventies styles are quite wearable if you make them in non-ugly colors. A lot of the styles are designed to be ‘slimming’ and they are pretty flattering on a long-waisted gal like me.

Is this a FEAUXLERO???
Possibly?

Ahh, the 70s. When they were good, they were very very good, and when they were bad . . . well, you got avocado. I like this dress; in the right print, the cut-out one could look 40s rather than 70s (the era of the world’s least erotic cutouts), and that’s an improvement right there.

I’d like to add that Faye Dunaway was a 1970’s gal, and usually managed to look very chic. (The name that comes to my mind from this era, somehow, is Holly Harp. I’m going to have to do a search on that brand!)
