It's the decade that taste forgot or so the stylistas and social historians keep telling us. But with glam rock, oversized sunglasses, loud shirts and collars that you can land a 747 on, it must be said that the seventies were fun. It's hardly surprising then that fancy dress costumes from this decade are increasingly in demand. Everyone loves to get into the groove with psychedelic and flower power outfits that raise a smile as soon as you put them on.
For the ladies its crazy coloured disco outfit with lurid colours such as bright orange and purple. Every dancing queen deserves a disco outfit with flares that you could build a house on. Silver, gold and shiny blue and green every colour is allowed on this palate. Top them off with dangly earrings and platform boots and you're away. Pump up the Abba and let's strut our funky stuff.
Big shades are back this year again, we're told but no one did them big enough and sexy enough at the children of the seventies. No 70 fancy dress look would be right without a huge pair of shades. For guy wigs and handle bar moustaches. The ultimate seventies accessory that rugged chest wig that Burt Reynolds perfected, complete the look while the girls can go for something equally outrageous to match.
If you really want to push the boat out then why not go for a funky coloured wig. For men or women going for the seventies look a curly wig in purple, orange or a variety of colours is the final addition to the best look ever invented for partying the night away. So, crack open that party 7 and drink a toast to the decade of fun, funk and bad taste. Fancy dress costumes don't keep groovier that 70s fancy dress.
