That's So 70s - Jumpsuits (Part 4) The Short Jumpers!

Not quite a jumpsuit, not quite hot pants, they are their own own thing.  Heck, they really don't even have a name - short jumpsuit, romper, short jumpers?  Confused?  good!

Here's what I'm talking about!  Kay, Karen, and Kathy show us some classic short jumpers here.  (1)

What the heck is "color-bright duck."  Anyway, the short jumpsuits usually appeared alongside other styles like here.  (1)

Many times you see the short jumpers paired with other casual, around the house wear like here.  In addition to the white jumper, we have the flowy dress, worn by Pam,and even some shorts - all in terry.

Nothing says summer is here like stretch-knit terry rompers by the lake!

Often the jumpers were paired with the regular long jumpsuits.  You can have your choice!  Once again we're by a lake - I still don't get that. (1)

More terry, more jumpers.  At least we moved from the lake. Oh wait, we're at the beach now and have the entire ocean as a background!

Okay this is just getting ridiculous.  How can I focus on the short jumpsuits when distracted about the background!!  What started out as a post on jumpsuits have devolved into one about water scenes! I'm sure the guy swimming in the pool didn't notice the modeling shoot going on, not at all, nope, never took a peek!!

      Hey! I meant to name Micaela (I think that's how it is spelled), but somehow I left that bit out. I'm sure she'll be featured again. As far as Maggie Fahy, I'm not familiar with her. Which one is she?

    I liked Maggie Fahy when I was a kid. I didn't know she had died. Which one is Micaela?

    Ah! Never mind. Anon mentioned she was in the same pic with Maggie and Pam. She is a familiar face from the catalogs.

    BTW, I see I can comment as Blue Senshi again!

      Hey Blue! Good to see you can post under your old name again. I remember Maggie. She was more of an 80s model, which is a bit outside my zone of focus. I checked her obit and see passed away in 2011 which would have made her 53 years old at the time. I'll try and post some more pics of her in the future.

      I remember her as a late-Seventies model. According to her obit, she started modeling in 1975. She was only a year older than me! That's another of our Seventies models that died relatively young.

      BTW, if anyone knows the name of the short-haired blonde in the last shot (the one in the long, blue jumpsuit), I'd be interested in knowing it. I remember her from the catalogs, and she is very cute. LOL

      Man I have also been trying to find out her name for some time. She was a common catalog model during that era. So far I've found nada, zilch on her - not even any leads to follow. I agree that she was super cute!!

      The blond is Pam Anderson- there is a site about Betsy Cameron and they have her headshot from Ford in 1979 along with Betsy's

      Hey Thanks! Another catalog model named. Of course with a name like that, it's going to be hard to find out more about her (thanks to teh other Pam Anderson.)
