Viewers were previously exposed to the '20s' chapter of Free People's 'Through the Decades' book, and now, the release of the '70s' Chapter of 'Through the Decades' is introducing a whole new version of retro inspiration.

Titled 'Carefree 70s,' this chapter of the book, shot by David Bellemere, captures the duo in [boho accessories and hippie garments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/opa-collection) of flowing dresses, tribal prints and sequined outfits that sparkle magnificently under the sunlight. Sporting [voluminous and sexy tousled tresses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/velvet-heat) styled by Patrice Delaroche and makeup by Deanna Hagan, model Elsa and Marianna are seen taking a breather in the barren desert on a hot summer day.

As if the '70s' Chapter of 'Through the Decades' is not already hot enough, it also features a pair of fire breathers!
