You'd have to order from the UK, but Joanie has lots of stuff that would work well: https://joanieclothing.com/the-edit/shop-by-era/1970s-vintage-style.html

The JM McLaughlin one is terrible, the others are cute ideas.

Gunne Sax dresses from the 70s are very in right now. Stevie Nicks vibe.

So many cute ones! Do you think ones like the marine layer one are formal enough for “cocktail attire - optional 70s theme”
