Sourcing away!

I have joined fairy and Athenians supervisor Grace more actively in the hunt for suits as of Friday! It has been a challenge despite the designs in a way as when you ask someone for a 1970's suit, they automatically think flares, bell-bottoms and giant collars. We are looking for 1970's Greek suits however, and that is a very different matter - conservative suits with wider lapels then now, certainly, but not the giant collars you would find in England or America, and with the militerised atmosphere of the early 70's where we are set there were not flares or bell-bottoms at all. So the challenge is now to find suits with the right lapels and trousers, without reading too modern.
 
The ladies wear is more likely to date the production as it is  reads more as 'stereotypical' 70's, especially the shoes and hairstyles.
