60s Costumes — Hippie, Flower Power & Go-Go Style

For an easy 60s outfit, pair a bright patterned top or dress with round glasses, a peace necklace, headband and flared pants. This theme works especially well for school discos, retro birthday parties, music events and group dress-ups.
70s Costumes — Disco Outfits, Flares & Saturday Night Fever
The 70s costume era brings disco sparkle, bold colours, flared trousers, jumpsuits, metallic fabrics, Afro wigs and dance-floor energy. Popular 1970s costume ideas include disco shirts, Saturday Night Fever-inspired suits, gold diva outfits, hippie disco dresses, bell bottoms, platform-style looks and bright retro accessories.
For a classic 70s disco outfit, add big sunglasses, an Afro wig, flares, a shiny shirt or a metallic jumpsuit. These costumes are great for dance parties, work Christmas parties, hens nights, Halloween and retro pub events.
ABBA Costumes & Dancing Queen Looks
ABBA costumes are one of the most popular 70s group themes, especially for hens nights, Mamma Mia parties, Dancing Queen events and retro dance nights. Choose white, gold, silver or colourful disco-style outfits and pair them with big hair, platform-style accessories and sparkly details for a strong 70s pop look.
ABBA-inspired outfits also work well for group photos because each person can wear a different colour or style while still looking coordinated as a group.

60s & 70s Costume Buying Tips
- Choose your era: 60s is more flower power and hippie; 70s is more disco, flares and dance-floor sparkle.
- Add a clear accessory: peace glasses, an Afro wig, bell bottoms or a disco shirt can make the era instantly recognisable.
- Think about comfort: choose an outfit you can dance, sit and move in during the event.
- Plan early for groups: matching colours and popular sizes can sell out before school discos, hens nights and Halloween.
- Check the size chart: costume sizing can vary by brand, so use the product measurements where available.
