Set yourself the challenge of taking on the retro disco look and giving it a fresh and contemporary reworking, perfect for 2013 and beyond. You’re probably thinking some of the looks Raf Simons and Walter Van Beirendonck sent down the runway might be a bit adventurous for the office Christmas party, but it’s all about adapting elements of the trend to fit your own style and the setting.

Whether you opt for a subtle retro-inspired pocket square or a more daring shimmery dinner jacket, you’ll feel confident and of-the-moment at every event you attend over the Christmas period.

After all, the party season should be fun, light-hearted and a little over the top – which is exactly what 1970s style is all about.
