Buying Guide

Men’s bell-bottom jeans and pants were huge in the late 1960s, and the trend continued into the 1970s disco era. They were traditionally fitted through the thighs and flared out toward the bottom.

Another popular style of the day was the elephant pant, which was wider all the way down. They usually had higher waists and could be slip-on or have button or zipper closures. Polyester was very popular in the 1970s, and disco pants made from this material are flexible and comfortable to wear while dancing.

Corduroy and denim bell bottoms were everywhere in the 1970s, but the material won’t grab as much attention at the clubs. Look for lightweight ones with loud patterns and colors; metallics are an excellent choice. Others have lower waistbands and slimmer fits, which can be more flattering on different body types.

To complete the look, you’ll want a form-fitting shirt to balance out wider pants; feel free to go looser with slimmer bottoms. Platform shoes are a must with bell bottoms, and you can find shiny ones for an even more authentic look. Choose shirts with wide collars and loud patterns, along with wide belts to wear with your disco pants. You can also add big gold jewelry, a wig and a pair of colored glasses to complete the look. Get ready to party to the max, man!

What to Look For

  • Some disco pants are only sold in one length, and you may need to hem them.
  • Slip-on styles have elastic waists but may not stay up as well as pants with buttons and zippers. For more security, look for ones with loops so you can add a belt.
  • If you have a belly that you’d like to camouflage, avoid high-waisted pants or wear a longer shirt.
  • Many disco pants are unisex, so feel free to experiment.
  • To add some sex appeal, unbutton your disco shirt down to your belly button!
