What do the 1970s mean to you? If you’re old enough, you might remember glam rock, punk or ska; Star Wars and Quadrophenia; the VW Beatle, football casual away days; or how about the first Sony Walkman, lava lamps, or the Concorde?
Above all, when asked to reminisce about the seventies, many of our customers talk fondly about the unique and pioneering fashion that characterised the decade. Gabicci understand this nostalgia as well as any menswear brand – that’s why so many of their garments boast impeccable 1970s retro credentials.
The definitive Gabicci look incorporates Italian inspired styling with an air of authority and class, brought to the UK by Gabicci founders Jack Sofier and Alex Pyser after a brief vacation in the Italian seaside town of Gabicce Mare. Since 1973, Gabicci has played a huge part in music and youth culture, proudly worn by the likes of the Specials and Bob Marley, to name but a few.
