70s Costumes
Choosing 70s fancy dress as a theme for your party will mean your guests have a wide range of costumes to choose from. Many specialist websites offer a wide selection of both male and female party fancy dress outfits.

In terms of fashion, the 1970s began with a continuation of the hippy style from the 1960s. Tie dye shirts, tops and mini dresses were still in full swing on the catwalk, along with other wild prints and five inch platform shoes which made you stand out from the crowd.

70s fashion was all about disco fever as the Bee-Gees, the Jacksons, Gloria Gaynor and ABBA were all topping the charts with their funky hits, which you just couldn’t help but boogie on down to. Not to mention the iconic blockbuster, Saturday Night Fever which followed the story of troubled Tony Manero (John Travolta) as he trains with Stephanie (Karen Lynn Gorney) to win the local disco dance competition. Travolta’s white suit is one of the most popular male 70s fancy dress costumes.

Female 70s Fancy Dress
70s fancy dress outfits are extremely popular with hen parties as women can choose from ...
... a wide range of styles.

Get ready to hit the dance floor with a long sleeved, sequined mini dress, afro wig and white, knee high boots.

For something a little more formal, why not select a two piece Go-Go girl costume? This includes a sleeveless halter-neck top and matching bell flares. If you don’t fancy a wig, simply pop down to your local hair salon and ask for a feathered, centre part cut with lots of volume. This hairstyle was often spotted on members of Charlie’s Angels and is imitated in certain styles today.

For a real 70s party look, jumpsuits are the perfect option. ABBA were often spotted in skin tight jumpsuits, with bell bottoms and vibrant colours. Disco jumpsuits recently became extremely popular after the release of Mamma Mia, when Meryl Street and Julie Walters gripped the nation with their tribute to some of ABBA’s popular hits.

Male 70s Fancy Dress
Ensure your stag night is a celebration to remember and ask your mates to come dressed in 70s fancy dress.

Party members will love the 3 piece, red pimp costume which comes complete with velvet, zebra print jacket, trousers and wide brimmed hat. Accessorise this popular 70s costume with a wooden cane, sunglasses and chunky gold jewellery.

If your party is during the cooler months, 70s sheepskin waistcoats are the perfect option. Pair these with a bright pink shirt and lime green flare trousers for an eye-catching, funky look. For something a little more simplistic, men can also select the 70s man kit, which contains moustache, side burns and chest wig.
