About this deal

It wasn’t just the music that made Abba one of the biggest phenomenons of the 1970s—the Swedish supergroup also knew how to dress big. From Zeenat Aman to Parveen Babi, Shabana Azmi to Smita Patil, Helen to Rekha and the leading ladies of the 70s and 80s, everyone wore the ABBA fashion brand like there is no tomorrow. If you haven’t heard of the sensational pop group of the 70s, ABBA, you have missed out on some very peppy numbers.

With one performance they dazzled the public, brought home the title and began their implacable climb to the top of the international music charts. From skinny scarves and embellished double denim to platform shoes and animal prints, Sandström revelled in all the major trends of the decade while stealing references from traditional attire—think Japanese kimonos, flamenco costumes and Swedish folk outfits—to create Abba's signature style. Our ABBA icon, Agnetha shows us how back then they would use a mix of shines and mattes in one shade to create oomphatic ABBA dress up ideas while performing live on stage!Most women preferred wearing formal onsie suits in white or black with tassels and frills on the arms, the wrists and at the ankles for the feminine touch to come through, and ABBA wasn’t backing out on the same lines too. But wait, pub hoppers and PYTs whose parents have been the pub hoppers too, would know who ABBA is, and their sense of fashion too. Now what you choose to wear under this cape is entirely up to you but a pair of knee length disco boots in white or silver will make the outfit look spectacular. If you want to emulate the same, a quirky star placed neatly on the bikini top is quite enough to oomph the simple sassy girl next door look. Under the name Artist Dressing and with his partner Lars Wigenius, he created some of the band's most memorable outfits and the group's tour costumes, including the triumph of spandex in shades of blue, purple and white designed for the 1979 tour, and Agnetha's white jumpsuit with ruffled trousers and sleeves, completed with an emerald green cape rimmed with white feathers for the 1974 European and North American tour.

Looking for a great costume for the Abba Festival in Trundle, then team up our Poncho with the Dancing queen wig for your 70's look.Glamorous, flamboyant and thoroughly enjoyable, even when veering towards kitsch, Abba's sartorial choices didn't cease to amaze their fans off-stage too. From the moment they walked into the limelight at the Eurovision song contest in Brighton in 1974, Abba proved they meant business—in music and in style. ABBA fashion was a rage back then, with peppy numbers flowing through them and the styles emulated all across the world, including the Indian fashion scenes too.
