welcome katrina,
the clothes come up here alot.they are often the subject of mockery(the shoes in particular are objects of much derision)but i rather like them as well.
maggie's quilted maxi-skirt has been the topic of considerable discussion(a long-standing debate has been as to whether or not this garment is in fact a pair of bell-bottom pants).i prefer to think of it as a skirt but it's a mystery lost to the sands of time.
julia is also on the recieving end of much criticism but in general i think she looks quite chic(especially after she cuts her hair short).but as gothick mentions the burnt-orange tweed,farm fresh in 1968,has had it by 1970.
some of the clothes were truly ugly but mostly i think they just look dated(and in some cases majorly overworn).
one thing that i always think makes the clothing look so striking is because of the way the jaunty 1960's palette plays against the dark,somber,heavy interiors.on other shows filmed during the same time period that used contemporary sets(think "that girl!")they don't look so jarring.
