Fashion - 1970s: Skirts for flirts.

The wrap-around skirt is tops for summer bottoms. This is the year of the skirt which opens as you walk and makes men wonder just how far the split will go. South Sea Island girls were the first to realise that the wrapped sarong style was the skirt to flirt in. They had no sips or buttons and needed to shed their clothes quickly, or so Hollywood films would have us believe. Todays sarongs are made in uncrushable man-made fibres that will fit you before and after a three-course dinner. Particularly if you tear them with stretchy leotards.
