'Witty, perceptive and luxuriously designed ' - The Spectator
'Lavish.. packed full with amazing photographs and exploring all manner of fashion, interior and architecture delights … a must for anyone with a keen interest in retro style' - Metro
'Offers a plethora of reasons to be nostalgic' - Elle Decoration
'Lutyens and Hislop bring order to the decade’s seemingly chaotic visual culture … An impressive array of 1970s tastemakers gave interviews for the book … In capturing the visual noise of the decade, the hectic turnover and profusion of competing styles, they convey an appropriate sense of turbulence' - London Review of Books
Dominic Lutyens, a trends and design journalist, has contributed to the Sunday Telegraph, the Guardian and the Observer. Kirsty Hislop is a freelance writer and stylist who has worked for British Elle and the Observer Magazine. She also designs for the award-winning card company Umpen Editions.
