Children's Fashions In The 1970's:

The 1970s was a fun time to be a child or teen, as the clothing featured a wide variety of options. The 1970s was all about personality and personal definition. Girls could choose to wear a long, flowing dress to school one day, followed by bell bottoms or trousers the next.

Minskirts were very popular with young girls and teens, either paired with a shirt or blouse, or as a jumper. The check flared skirt worn by many young women was very trendy in the early to mid 1970s, and mini dresses that featured a checkered or diamond pattern.

Granny dresses were also very popular with little girls. These often featured high necklines that could be trimmed with ric rac or lace. Almost all of these dresses were floral print with an empire waist. Girls also wore solid colored knee socks with their jumpers or short dresses, while long dresses allowed for a variety of shoe types.
