Have a little read: ... Fashion from 1970-1980 Denim veered off the straight and narrow when it belled out below the knee after the swinging 60's. Bellbottoms had been a functional design feature in Navy sailor uniforms: the wide cut, 'bell' shaped leg of the naval uniform guaranteed a quick removal over clunky boots if you happened to fall overboard and the uniform weighed you down. Hippies adopted the functional fare and turned it into anti-fashion. The wide-legged look was rebellious in the face of the straight-legged form of the conservatives, and a mass counterculture was made. Not since the 1940's, when teenagers adopted the workman's jeans as part of their uniform, had denim been so shocking. Hippies turned the denim pant into an artist's canvas and a platform for protest: trimmed in ethnic ribbons, patched with peace signs and smiley faces, and painted with flowers and protest slogans, the bellbottom jean shouted out loud.
