I admit, Retrospace is pretty USA-centric (not a word, but you know what I mean); I've lived a couple years in Spain, but otherwise my life has been entirely within the States. Since it's impossible to wax nostalgic about life in Thailand or India during the seventies, I end up leaving the majority of the world out of the picture. I'd actually be very interested in reading a retro blog from those countries.
Miniskirts trancended cultural boundaries in the late sixties and early seventies. You could arguably say it was just as omnipresent in parts of Asia and Indonesia as Swingin' London. Here's a few images I've rounded up to illustrate my point. Enjoy!
