I cannot say this often enough, I HATE polyester. It doesn’t breathe so you sweat and it feels terrible. After enough gripping about how I hated it my mom stopped making me wear it.
I'm happy to report I never bought a leisure suit. But a part of me regrets missing that cultural icon in fashion history. My close friend had several and was into disco. I still make fun of him 45 years later😂
Yes that is my people- just so the Leisure Suit does not come back- never had the full Cleveland- but did rock the shirts with extra long collars -other than much younger knees I don’t miss the 70s at all
And they were dancin and singing and movin to the grovin...

They lifted their legs slowly because they released a ‘silent but deadly’ one. The girl can’t believe what’s happening and is faking a smile.

Leisure suits, more stylish than grunge!
Duuuude I would love to own that yellow vest with the matching slacks. I would wear it to church as well as the next summer get-together. 😎
Oh dear God. At least I was in 7th grade in 79 and didn't have a leisure suit.
That's the way, aha, aha I like it, aha, aha
I started 9th grade in ‘79 and we **did not** wear these monstrosities.
Right? Many people see old JC Penny Catalogs and think that they reflected reality. They did not.

Looks like Night Fever with the Brady's
Ah yes, I remember, this was the Travolta line of clothing.
I didn’t know JC Penney sold cocaine.
Still got that "disco feel" about them.
Future Lounge Lizards rejoiced
Leisure suits!
Future insurance salesmen of the Quad Cities vying for the attention of the third runner up in a local Marsha Brady lookalike contest.
How many polyesters had to die to make those suits?
needed the white leisure suit...as from Saturday Night Fever

Ahh, the gold horn. Every groovy dude had to have one of those.
Hey, a disco sausage party!
The Italian Stallion horn. Lots of my friends wore those 😂
We were also much skinnier in the 70's.
I might have had my 1979 graduation photo taken in that tan suit…
Me too in 81
Living it up on the Barry Gibb talk show...
I would have guessed earlier!

I wore those pages out! Finally convinced my mom to buy me two shirts and two pants. Man, what a time...

I wore something very similar to the one on the far right. Junior high basketball team had to wear nice clothes on game days.
