Aelf – What happened to cheese cloth shirts? They were really cool looking and cool to wear in the summer. I used to wear a white cheese cloth shirt and a pair of those high hipster trousers with the huge waistband with ranks of buttons.
Thinking back I must have looked a right plonker but I thought I was the coolest dude in town lol
Mark UK – lol you poser there’s one on Ebay now would suit a girlie like you
Aelf – Hey no need for that
I bet you went for the Halter necks or maybe you went for the safari jacket look
Mark UK – LOL Touche
I did like the corduroy jeans though. I didn’t have the balls to wear one of those Hawaiian shirts
Rennie – There’s a great affro wig on Ebay that would go well with your corduroys mate.
Karen – We managed to wear cheese cloth shirts as part of our summer uniforms! Weren’t we lucky girlies? Mostly though I recall how much I loved my Gypsy skirts and off the shoulders matching tops.
Oh, and those …….hehe.. layered long petticoats with the lace that showed beneath the skirts…..
Sandie – I must be a born again hippy, My fashion now is Gypsy skirts with cheesecloth tops or similar……. do the Hippy Hippy Shake everyone………………..rofl…
Hattie – My fashion is exactly the same now too Sandie, I also dress exactly like that too, have noticed that the skirts have got prettier lately, just got some fantastic clothes from Gibralter, there was a shop there that had all the flowy seventies fashions, I was in my glory……er….thats why i am so broke now!! lol
Sandie – Love the fashion Hattie,

Sorry……………not me at all never has been never will be……I’m an Earth child…………….through and through…………… I like to feel Free and will remain that way………………lol
Hey Man Boogey on Down……………
Sparky – I did like the corduroy jeans though. I didn’t have the balls – I did, wore the bloody material away!
Lainybins – I always found that cheese-cloth shirts “”gapped”” at the front, no matter what size I wore. Not a good look for a chubby young teen. My slimmer older sister always looked fantastic in hers (apart from the bubble perm).
Rennie – I always liked the look of he cheese cloth shirts but actually go one, used to walk around Mr Byrite checking them and the Hawaiian shirts out.
Glittergal – I had a lovely one (I can still see it now, in my minds eye) light blue, lilac and white cheesecloth shirt when I was 13 in the spring of 1976, loved that shirt to bits xx
Goldencup – Me and my mates all used to live in our cheesecloth shirts – especially those ones that tied at the waist leaving a bit of our slim midriffs exposed – those were the days, sigh!
