Be inspired by films such as American Hustle, The Last Days of Disco, Boogie Nights, Xanadu and the forever a classic Saturday Night Fever, when choosing your style staples during late summer this year.
As I was watching the Topman SS15 show it occurred to me that a fash-forward was about to spark off a new summer trend. A fresh 1970s vibe is about to be established. Although vintage or retro pieces may initially spring to mind, those pieces are not the ones to look out for....this trend is going to boogie on down to the high street with a modern and mature twist.
70s styles were subtely suggested on the women's wear runway for this season but weren't a major feature. My prediction is that this trend will come through fast in the late summer and last in to the fall. So get your 70s pieces now ahead of the crowds....your LED dance floor awaits.
Here is some 70s style inspiration from the SS14 runways...
Floaty and floral endless chiffon at Holly Fulton.
A cool colour palette at Jonathan Saunders.
Summer in the 70s at Michael Kors.
A trail of a thousand sequins at Jenny Packham.
When choosing your 70s style pieces for 2014 look for beiges, browns and powder blues in turtle necks, high waists, wide legged trousers and halter necks.
Here is my super stylish pick of the moment. The wide legged paisley trouser from Topshop, £40.00.
Channel Amy Adams in American Hustle and get in the 70s spirit this season with some modern glamour.x
