Halston
I do not have a Netflix account (yet), but find myself glued to documentaries whenever I am able to take advantage of a friends. Most recently, glued (or should I say draped?) onto Ultrasuede: In Search of Halston.
It's the story of American Fashion Designer Roy Halston Frowick and how he revolutionized the industry during his quick rise to fame in the nineteen seventies and eighties. It seems to be that every film centered around the disco era shines with decadent excess and ends in dark despair - consequences from the excess in fashion, drugs and sex. Halston's life was no exception.

Style: Boogie Nights
I'm in love with this Gucci Aristographic Glittered Plexiglass Clutch! It wreaks of excess which is what disco was all about. The application of glitter on the plexiglass reminds me of some piece of delightfully tacky seventies furniture or art.
