An ABBA costume is built around three things: a jumpsuit or wrap dress in a bold colour, flared trousers or platform-style layering, and disco-era accessories like star sunglasses and a sequin hat. Get those three right and the group reads as ABBA the moment you walk in. Below are the pieces that make up a proper group look, split by who's dressing and what job each item does.
How to get the look: start with a printed dress or a disco outfit for the main colour, add sunglasses and jewellery to finish the look, then layer in a poncho, beret or leg warmers if you want extra sparkle without a full costume change.

Women's ABBA outfits
The two women in ABBA wore contrasting prints and colours rather than matching, so pick different outfits for each person rather than buying the same dress twice.
ABBA accessories set
Magenta sequin hat and feather scarf to top a bold dress - instant ABBA sparkle for her.
Sequin leg warmers
Sequin leg warmers that catch the light on the dance floor and layer over any disco outfit.
Men's ABBA outfits
The two men in ABBA wore white flares and printed shirts, so the men's look is a bit more restrained - but still unmistakably 70s disco.
70s pop poncho
The striped silver poncho the men wore on stage - throw it over white flares for the male half of the group.
Disco accessory set
Sequin hat, star sunglasses and earrings in one cheap set, so a whole group can match on a budget.
