Step 2
Pick a three piece suit of any color that particularly have wide lapels and high rise vests. Colorful three-piece suits became very popular in the 70's, so the louder the color, the better!

Flared trousers or bell bottoms were particular iconic in the 1970s, pick a pair of a nice pair of flared jeans. Flared jeans hug tight to the thighs and flare out to the bottom where your foot is. If you do not have a pair of flared jeans, you can create the bell bottomed look by cutting in the outer seams of a regular pair of jeans.
Step 4
Pair your outfit with platform shoes. Platform shoes should be available at costume stores or even on ebay (or other online sites).
