The Wet Look

In the 70's there were lots of parties, balls, informals and formals to attend in the capital city of Kuala Lumpur.

It was a good shirt to wear for a cool party..

And the slimmest of the girls would wear the wet look (soft leather) stretch pants, following Oliva Newton John's fashion in "GREASE"

This was the REAL RAGE of those varsity days, when many free spirits were creating music, dance, plays etc. then after 1974 every thing creative was put to a stop.

Muslim girls had to wear their head cover (tudung) and university parties stopped.

University education changed its character, schools became very controlled by politicians. Literary progress almost came to a stand still. Many literati left Malaysia to go elsewhere. Some historians also left the various campuses.
