How did actors dress in the 1970s?

With an emphasis on texture, outerwear included fur (often faux) and sheepskin. Afghan coats were particularly fashionable, having arrived in the UK in 1966. The style, aesthetically derived from the traditional overcoat worn by Afghan people, was sold in hippie boutiques. Afghan coats tend to be made from sheepskin, featuring fleece on the inside and a soft suede on the outside. Penny Lane is the most obvious source of 1970s outerwear inspo - and for excellent reason.
