60s and 70s Costumes for Women

Women’s 60s Costumes and 70s Costumes

Don’t be bummed out if you can’t work out what to wear to a 60s costume party or just can’t find the 70s costumes you need for your groovy dress up event.

Heaven Costumes Australia has just the 60s dress you’ll love so you can find your mojo and go-go to your next 60s dress up party looking like you’re wearing the youth driven fashion of the era.

60s fashion for women had all the ladies looking like a foxy Mama but in a very girl-like way! Utilising the childish styles of 1960s clothing, your new 60s costume is likely to reflect that of a babydoll or squarish shift dress. 1960s dresses that were far too short for work attire, but became shorter and shorter with the hem length being directly proportional to the liberating power felt by any individual woman! There’s power to be had through 1960s womens fashion, so send out those feminine vibes, hoist up those hemlines, and get the 60s costume to help shake that thing at your 60s theme party.

60s outfits brought about a ‘fashion is fun’ trend with colours and prints from the pop art and modern art movements – and born was the 60s Mod look! Your 60s costume ideas might therefore also include outta sight checkerboard patterns, colourblock styles, bold stripes and playful polka dots! Before they were picked up by hippies in the late 60s, 1960s dresses also got funky with a trippy edge that had women flaunting psychedelic swirls and prints on their 60s costume.

It’s the decade that introduced us to fondue parties and disco music – so moving straight through the turbulent years takes us to 70s costume ideas that are fab and will blow your mind! Disco days are here to stay and standing under the light show in your own 70s disco costume is Dy-no-mite! If you want to re-live 70s fashion for women, then make sure your 70s costumes are keepin’ it real with swirly skirts and wrap dresses, plus who can forget the shimmery fabrics that are going to have you wired for a good time under the disco ball. To get right into the funkadelic mood of your 70s theme party, Heaven Costumes has all the 70s outfits to put you in the middle of the Studio 54 dance floor. Whether your 70s costumes have that billowy flare or the sexy skin tight groove, you won’t be a wallflower at your 70s theme party this time around. Women’s 70s dress up ideas also include dancing dresses or bell bottoms with cute little tops. Longer bell sleeves look fabulous on 70s outfits and complement the often sexy plunging necklines or length of the mini dresses. A go-to 70s theme costume considered the best thing since sliced bread, is the amazing jumpsuit; with drapey necklines for sex appeal and tighter legs for a silhouette to die for, choosing an ace jumpsuit as your 70s disco costume is something you won’t regret!

70s costumes for women also branched out to the flower power peaceful protest movement and counterculture. Hippies ran with the tie dyed 70s clothes and started being recognised for how they put their hippie outfit together and how they accessorised. Hippie clothes were a free and easy way of dressing that came from the soul! For a hippie costume reminiscent of the laid back 70s, Heaven Costumes Australia has the loose flowing Boho hippie outfit that any peacenik will freak out over. 70s hippie costumes for women often have that vintage vibe where you’ll find prairie style hippie dresses, a maxi length 70s dress or skirt, flares or frayed jeans, 1970s ponchos, floppy hats to top them all off and of course the beautifully designed peasant blouses with folk embroidered motifs.
