1970s Style Suits


Retro

1970s style suits are the most common vintage suits on the market. This really shouldn't be much of a surprise though since this era's style of clothing is popular in all of its forms. You won't find any vintage bowling shirts on this page though.

Style

The styles of this generation are markedly different but the basic concepts still remain. Two and three button jackets with appropriately tailored pants.

Many vintage suit wearers will pop on the 3 piece version to fully differentiate between their suit and the new age style suits. Main differences are wider lapels and slim stream lined waists.

Colors

Colors range from traditional black and navy blue to anything you might find on the color spectrum.

Bright and interesting colors were the flavor for this decade so don't be afraid to shop around until you find the color that most suits you.

Materials

Suits can be found in wool in any decade and the 70's are no exception. However, polyester suits made a big splash in this era and dominated many of the clothing found in this era.

Conclusion

Prices can be quite low on these sites but be willing to spend a few extra dollars to buy from an established seller.
