I’m not throwing shade at Sister Sledge here, but whoever picked those outfits for that shoot didn’t do a good job in my opinion. It’s like the thought process was “Inspired by a hot dog.”

It’s impossible to look at this and not hear the bassline to ‘We Are Family.’ 1979 was really the year they went from being a hardworking group to absolute global superstars. That Nile Rodgers and Bernard Edwards production was just magic

This color palette is peak 1979. The mix of flowy silhouettes and those bold red tones perfectly captures the transition from the disco era into the early 80s aesthetic. They looked like royalty

There’s a reason ‘We Are Family’ became such a universal anthem. You can see the genuine bond between Kathy, Debbie, Joni, and Kim in these sessions. That chemistry is something you just can’t manufacture

As a baseball fan, I can’t see Sister Sledge in ’79 without thinking of the Pittsburgh Pirates. They adopted ‘We Are Family’ as their theme song that year and went on to win the World Series. Talk about the ultimate good luck charm!

People often forget how technically skilled their harmonies were. Beyond the disco hits, their vocal arrangements were incredibly tight. They really raised the bar for girl groups in that era

Absolute icons. This isn’t just a photo; it’s a moment in music history you can feel. 1979 really belonged to them

“WE ARE FAMILY, I GOT ALL MY SISTERS WITH ME” ❤️ ♥️ 💕
She’s got all her sisters and her. They’re family.
I always loved these ladies!
Sorry, but being a Baltimore Orioles fan, screw We are family.
Always loved the cover photo from ‘We Are Family’.
