Testing out some designs for my 70s AU!
Notes:
Sakura’s fashion (particularly Shippuden forward) incorporates both movement and style. I wanted to keep that here too, and what better way to express that than a jumpsuit?? I’m also biased bc I loveee jumpsuits and bellbottoms, lol. Her outfit is inspired by this one, though I changed the pattern in the middle to resemble that of a cherry blossom. Her hair was inspired by Donna Summer’s in the movie “Thank God it’s Friday”!
(Remembering when Kishimoto talked about referencing a karate outfit for her shippuden design while also being feminine. I love the idea of Sakura exploring gender through fashion, and I think team 7 would too (particularly Sasuke and Sai, where it’s more apparent).
I chose orange for Ino to 1) add in some color diversity in the line up and 2) earth toned were prevalent in the 70s. I noticed she wore orange as her casual outfit in the anime. I take it that she seems to like wearing secondary colors (or she just likes purple and orange). Her style is kinda more reminiscent of the 60s (I have a lot of Gogo fashion saved to my Pinterest board of her, lol), but there was a good bit of overlap between the eras (which tends to be the case throughout time).
Hinata was low key (high key) challenging for me to style for this au, just bc the aesthetic I originally had in mind felt so out of place in the line up😭. I had to start from scratch and try other styles while keeping it true to her, but I like the outfits I have for her now (all of them weren’t shown here).
Tenten usually wears red like Sakura, but I thought she would rock brown (and I was right), esp since it was a popular color in the 70s (along with other earth tones). Adding her accessories was fun too!
Tallest to shortest: Ino, Tenten, Sakura, Hinata (canonically Ino and Tenten are switched, but I’ll keep it like this for now)

ROUND THREE
UCHIHA SASUKE vs TENTEN
Reasons for submission under the cut
Sasuke
he is trying so hard to do what he is supposed to, even succeeding at it, only for everything to be a lie
he's authentic and driven and he doesn't care what other people think, if he believes something he will go ahead and do it, unafraid of paying the price
Sasuke was right about everything
he went through so much and never gave up, it's very inspiring and means a lot
Fortnite Sasuke
despite everything he can't help but love
his relationship with Itachi is one of the most heartbreaking and beautiful sibling relationships, genocide aside it's very relatable
he looks just like Mikoto.....
he's beautiful!
he has so much compassion for others and will do what he can for them, but still does not compromise his own beliefs and goals to do so
he's so personal to [submitter] and has been the sole reason of making it through hard times
love is stored in the Sasuke
true heroine or the Naruto series
all his outfits slay
the whole manga wouldn't even exist if it weren't for him
kind, compassionate, driven by love, fucking iconic
trans masc icon and legend
the revolutionnnn
he is an emo icon
a communist
a transgay legend
[submitters] family is generationally effected by genocide so Sasukes justice means the world to [submitter]. Sasukes love means EVERYTHING to [submitter]
he is full of love
very strong
excellent gay representation
