Flaunt Your Style In A 70s Party

Time doesn't bar fashion from being in trend. The decade of the 1970s had some crazy styles in fashion in combination with catchy music. This decade saw the frolicking hippies and the anti-war activities of the 60s. The clothing trends in this era let loose all the boundaries to make the 70s a label of fashion and music. The loud music from that era, the decor, furnishings, artwork, and the clothing trends of this 'Me decade' have become popular with this millennia partygoers. 

The 70s is associated with disco. Even if you haven't been there, you must have hummed the rock music from this era and danced to those numbers. The 70s party theme owed its popularity due to its mindset. A mindset to change the gloominess in the war-hit world and to realize yourself as a free spirit.

Here are some tips for bedecking yourself to have a quintessential 70s look.

Ladies first

The flamboyant clothing of the 70s is readily available in thrift stores and even in your closet or attic. Style your attire with the following options:-

• Flared Blue Jeans paired with vintage tie-dye shirts, rainbow-color shirts, snug knit tops, peasant tops, or polo t-shirts in bright-colored stripes are the perfect option for a casual party.
• The Flares or bell-bottom pants, in bright colors and subtle patterns, are teamed with tunic tops, peasant blouses, or ringer t-shirts with a nice slogan. Knitwear and crop tops blend well with bell bottoms.
• High-waisted Denim shorts teamed up with a striped crochet sleeveless top or a crop top is a perfect casual summer day outfit. 
• Denim Rompers styled with western boots make up a trendy outfit for a disco and casual 70s party. Disco Jumpsuits in pastel colors and bold prints marked the dance floor in the 70s. 
• Wrap dresses are back in style this year, although back in the 1970's they were worn by celebs. Popular as disco dresses, they were in light jerseys that held to the body with a thin tie belt.
• A long Maxi dress in Edwardian style with puffy sleeves, a trimmed hem, and a belt around the waistline is a good pick for an evening party. A simple maxi dress in ethnic prints or delicate embroidery favors the current boho trend.
• To host a house party, choose a Caftan dress in bold prints and oversized dramatic sleeves to have fun at the party.
• Mini dresses, an alternative to long dresses, with contrasting white collar or white necktie bows, were in style and bridged the gap between the 70s and the modern era.
• The Hippie look in your attire is a mix and match of unique textures and materials in earthy colors. Handmade headbands, floppy hats, sandals, and peace sign jewelry all worked well with patchwork skirts and pants, fringe vests and ponchos, afghan coats, and embroidered peasant tops.

The 1970s footwear was made for comfort, making the walk easy. Besides platform heels, the 70s comfy shoes included leather boots, wedges, retro sneakers, slip-on flats, open-toe slingback heels in bright colors, and strappy heels in gold, silver, or white.

Accessorize your look by wearing peace symbol earrings and a neckpiece. A beaded choker or a colorful scarf around the neck embellishes your 70s outfit. 

Let your long hair fall straight for the hippie look. You can even style your hair with a curling iron for a feathered look. Perming wavy and voluminous hair was also prevalent during the 70s. A deconstructed look of a Shag hairstyle epitomizes the 70s era. Don't forget to complete your look with groovy sunglasses.
