As the world slowly comes out of lockdown fatigue, it’s time to shop for a new wardrobe and start embracing life as we knew it. If you’re looking to ramp up your style, why not consider some shimmery options? The disco days may be dead (although die-hard fans may beg to differ), but the style inspirations — think Grace Jones, Diana Ross, Elsa Peretti, Bianca Jagger and Anjelica Houston at New York infamous nightclub Studio 54 — from that era still live on.

Feeling outrageously adventurous? Why not consider a full copper metallic jumpsuit with voluminous draped panels that fall from the sleeves to create beautiful movement. Alternatively, jump onto the Soul Train with a long blazer that doubles as a mini dress when worn with fishnet stockings. Just remember: Create a sartorial spectacle with shiny metallics, glitter, sequins and overall sparkle.
