MPX5074794: Fashion - 1970s. Growing up. Thank heavens for little children for they get more grown-up every day. Not only does it show in the things they say and do, but also in the clothes they like to wear. Luckily, the kids clothes manufacturers have realised that small boys and girls are very keen to dress like adults. After years of looking casual, children are shrugging off their dungarees and slipping into sophisticated gear. Still babes.... these two youngsters still prefer the traditional baby dress.
