30 L’Officiel Magazine Photos That Defined Women’s Fashion in the 1970s

1970s women’s fashion was diverse, blending bohemian, disco, and casual styles. Early in the decade, the trend leaned toward flowy, relaxed silhouettes, with bell-bottom jeans, peasant blouses, maxi dresses, and platform shoes being popular. The boho-chic look, characterized by ethnic prints, fringe, and earthy tones, was embraced, especially during the mid-1970s.

As the decade progressed, the disco era brought more glamorous, shiny, and form-fitting clothing, including halter tops, wrap dresses, and jumpsuits, with metallic fabrics and bold patterns. The overall vibe shifted between laid-back and glamorous, reflecting the cultural shifts and the rise of feminism, youth countercultures, and pop icons.

These vintage photos captured portraits of classic models from L’Officiel magazine in 1974.
