The fight for gender equality had a big influence on women’s fashion in the 70s, particularly within the workforce. To challenge very restrictive office dress codes, feminist movements encouraged women to ditch their hyper-feminine workwear. By the late 70s, the movements placed more focus on promoting women’s individuality and personal comfort when it came to what they wore. As a result, more women began wearing pantsuits and other unconventional office fashion.
