70′s fancy dress has been brought back into popular demand by the release of the film Mamma mia featuring Meryl Streep. I grabbed the entire world by surprise. Mamma Mia erupted onto our film screens in July 2008 and was a surprise hit.
The motion picture regenerated the 1970′s fad for Lycra, sparkles and platform shoes. A series of 1970′s fancy dress celebrations and nights were organised in community clubs and pubs.
Men and women fancy dress costumes are eye catching and glitzy. Typically costumes consist of anything from plain 100 % cotton dungarees to brilliant blue and metallic Lycra embracing pant suits. Open t shirts for men and wide bell bottoms for women. Females of all ages can dress in extravagant eye makeup colours to suit their clothing. Greens, electric blues and silvery whites look wonderful.
You will find a plethora of ideas for seventies fancy-dress costumes on web pages devoted to Mamma Mia. They produce outstanding practical information on all Abba facts. You can easily dig through photographs of classic Abba outfits and Mamma Mia costumes. They will supply you with all the backdrop you will need to choose your 70s fancy dress outfit.
Getting into the mood. Take part in the early Mamma Mia songs, imagine your family on the fantastic shores of Portugal and think of that insanely blue glistening sea. Taste the water and listen to the songs.
No one thought the Abba mania would reach such high levels. Women, men and kids adored the picture for what it was, an easy hearted musical. Even if you’re not much of a fan of Abba’s songs, you can tap away to the songs, experiencing Pierce Brosnan’s worried depiction of Sam Carmichael, Donna’s (Meryl Streep) ex- partner. A perfect location, lively story and superb new music. It was a formula for success and the clothing opportunity is a great excuse for a party.
