1970s Designers

[Cat Woman]

I've just started a new project at college where I have to research in to some 70's designers. Does anyone know of any good ones? I am liking the "disco fever" styles B)

Thanks guys I have just looked in to some of them and they're a bit conservative. Are there any wacky ones

In terms of the "disco" look, try these designers' work for that era:

* Bonnie August
* Patrick Kelly
* Ron Chereskin

I believe the Brooklyn Museum is exhibiting Mr. Kelly's work beginning in April. I'll check up on that.
