Found, at the local secondhand bookstore


This is fabulous enough as is, but found inside the book was an old magazine article on which fabrics to wear to achieve your perfected disco look:

"For a night at the roller disco, avoid loose fitting blouses and gaucho pants made of sateenlike materials, which tend to "flutter" as you skate.  Save these for the disco dance floor; their "bounce" and drape will complement your moves to the music."

Totally wicked advice.

    1. Sweetie, I couldn't afford it. They wanted $200 for it. But I did pick up a copy of "Camp: The Lie That Tells The Truth" for a $1!
