Slideshow: ’70s Spring Style

Style Counselor and Personal Shopper Traci Schlosser previews spring fashion.

I take it you’ve met Traci Schlosser?

Among her talents is helping women into key looks at the University Village Anthropologie. This coming season (spring is coming, isn’t it?), not a few of those looks will reference the 70s, when pant legs were wide, blouse bows were dandy, and the space between boho and Studio 54 glamor was just a few hours.

Of course, it’s Marc Jacobs who is credited with turning everyone around at his September ‘10 showcase of his Spring 2011 collection and getting them facing in the direction of Yves Saint Laurent’s version of the decade. But all kinds of designers went to wooden-heeled clogs and Bianca Jagger jumpsuits for the season.

And what with those ubiquitous Chloe ads in which Raquel Zimmerman descends the stairs in creamy-peach slacks wide enough to smuggle small children with, you really can’t escape the look.
