 Thanks everyone for the comments. I wore these clothes when I was a small child. Yes, I was born in Germany making these some German fashions in those days..
I like the hearts and this image helps me to let go of material things that I will always keep in my heart..
With that said I really like to add the lyrics to this from the idea that started this shot...

+44 When Your Heart Stops Beating Lyrics
Turn it up, I never wanna go home
I only wanna be part of your breakdown
She got caught by the four on the floor
It picked her up and she'll never get let down
And now I can't stop thinkin' about it
All you people at the top, don't know nothin' about it
We don't give a f**k what the price is
So just leave us to our own advice and we'll leave you alone

I'll be there when your heart stops beating
I'll be there when your last breath's taken away
In the dark, When there's no-one listening
In the times when we both get carried away

When we both get carried away

She says it all without a thought in her head
She says it all and she's pressed up against me
A little something just to take it off the edge
A little more and I'll fall off the planet entirely

I'll be there when your heart stops beating
I'll be there when your last breath's taken away
In the dark, When there's no-one listening
In the times when we both get carried away

When we both get carried away

I'll be there when your heart stops beating
I'll be there when your last breath's taken away
In the dark, When there's no-one listening
In the times when we both get carried away
When we both get carried away
When we both get carried away
(I'll be there when your heart stops beating)
When we both get carried away
(In the dark, When there's no-one listening)
When we both get carried away

sorry, I miss where it indicates any idea of 1975.

The title seems fitting, but we need a little help - what happened in Germany in 1975? A quick google search didn't show an obvious match - not tours by Bill Monroe nor Thin Lizzy. Help?

Love the worn look of the leather, lederhosen? Unfortunately the blue cast on the lighter clothing is not quite right, maybe desat the blue just a bit.

overexposed perhaps?

I'm not sure of the connection with the clothing and the year. I know that similar clothers were made long before 1975. If I'm missing a connection, please let me know.

Visually, the coloring combines well, and there are some interesting textures. Nothing about the image really grabs my attention. 4

I don't understand how these clothes define the year 1975 (but they sure bring back some memories for this "Muenchner Kindl").

Lighting is a bit uninteresting - composition culd have been aided by lighting that isn't so flat.

Your pic does not meet title or challenge well enough

I guess I mostly wish I knew what this was a picture of. Maybe a more descriptive title?

it would be nicer if more info is given in the title so that we understand the idea..

I'm pretty sure Germany exsited even before '75, so i'm not getting this one...
