ABBA’s stage outfits were never shy, and neither should you be. Think metallic jumpsuits, sequin mini-dresses, and shimmering kimonos. If it catches the light, you’re on the right track. Gold, silver, and iridescent fabrics will keep you glowing from “Waterloo” to “Dancing Queen”. 

Style tip: Layer in glittery eyeshadow or a sparkly headband for extra shine.

Nothing says “1970s glam” quite like a good flare. Whether it’s trousers that kick out dramatically from the knee or a playsuit with dramatic bell sleeves, these retro shapes are ABBA to their core.

Style tip: Pair flares with platform heels to get that leg-lengthening, disco-diva silhouette. If you can’t bring a pair of flares out of retirement, don’t fret, they’re back in stores and in fashion now!

Speaking of platforms – the higher, the better! These were ABBA’s secret weapon, adding height, drama, and a certain strut to every step. Choose metallic or glittery styles to keep the party vibe alive. 

Style tip: If you plan to dance all night (and you will), consider a chunky heel or wedge for comfort without sacrificing style.

ABBA embraced colour like nobody else – from electric blues and hot pinks to swirls of psychedelic prints. Don’t be afraid to mix clashing patterns or embrace rainbow brights. The louder, the better.

Style tip: Team a statement print with a sequin jacket or metallic belt to tie the look together.

From feather boas to oversized sunglasses, the right accessories can make your look pop. Metallic belts, chunky jewellery, and sparkling scarves are all welcome here. 

Style tip: Think “just stepped out of a 1970s music video” and you’re there. 

Big curls, voluminous blowouts, or poker-straight hair with a centre part – ABBA hairstyles were full of personality. Pair your ‘do with dramatic eyeliner, bold eyeshadow, and a glossy lip. Bonus points for glitter freckles or face gems. 

Style tip: A spritz of glitter hairspray will keep you shimmering under the disco ball.
