1970s men’s business suits were almost extinct. Casual was in. Bold was in. The 70s men’s suit blended wide lapel with the bold colors, patterns, and the flared leg found on the disco floor. Men’s leisure suits or disco suits were extra flashy in pastel colors, plaid, pinstripes and colorblock prints. John Travolta wore an all-white suit with black shirt in Saturday Night Fever. Textures like corduroy, denim and polyester added to this funky fashion era.
These new suits and sport coats have all the funk of vintage 70s men’s suits.
