Abba Fancy Dress

Abba Fancy Dress


Abba Fancy Dress costumes are a great choice of outfit for a 70s fancy dress party. Abba are a world famous Swedish pop band from the 70s that many people know and love to this day. The same band that inspired a long running stage musical - Mamma Mia, which would then more recently inspire a highly successful movie of the same title, many band have come and gone and been forgotten about since their time. The Memory of Abba lingers on.

Having a Fancy Dress party? It comes as no surprise then, especially if it is a 70s fancy dress party, that many women will want to dress themselves up as the blond hair and blue eyed Agnetha, or the stunning brunette Anni-Frid in honor and memory of the female half of the pop quartet. Some will go for a full set of accessories on top. You can buy wigs, hats, pretty headdresses, sparkling or fluorescent 70s colored shoes or boots. And lastly round off the whole look with makeup.

The guys are not that far behind too, although men being men, there may be typically less effort to look specifically like Benny and Bjorn as opposed to merely looking like a party goer from the 70s. That said though there are those that will make the effort to buy a Benny or Bjorn inspired suit. A few will go beyond that and plump for a wig as well, and a trickle more might dare to apply some scary sideburns - unless they already wear sideburns as part of their look.

When it comes to the Abba fancy dress costumes themselves, some people will just opt to take any costumes from the 70s. This is in part because rather outrageously there are not that many retail outlets that have a specific Abba range. So some people do not have much of a choice in the matter. Also, some retail outlets will label costumes as Abba, but really they are just 70s costumes, rather than outfits that are a replica or directly inspired by those worn by the pop group.

So you may have little choice but to take any costume from the 70s range and hope that people might figure out which band member you are intending to resemble at the party. It really depends on the retailer.

Where else can you buy Abba Fancy Dress costumes?

As the band were quite famous in the UK - which still houses the Mamma Mia musical that inspired the hit movie of the same name, certainly fancy dress retailers in the UK are likely to have a selection of Abba influenced styles representing many of the costumes seen worn by the band in their music videos and other promotional material or performances. So if you are really hoping to look the part and are having difficulty finding a suitable Abba costume, help is at hand, as you can simply get a good UK retailer to ship your Abba Fancy Dress outfit directly to you.
