FashioThe 70’s and 80’s party held over the weekend at the Grand-Palm resort in Gaborone was nothing short of magical. The party reception which was beautifully staged gave exquisite treats, everything from the food, entertainment, and moreover the executive treatment the ticket buyers were receiving from the resort staff was a noteworthy mark the organizers left.
However, the 70’s and 80’s fashion won above all things. Men and women dressed in their yesteryear regalia rocked the event. The Gaborone International Convention Centre decorated to fit the theme of the event complimented what the night crawlers were wearing. Despite the cold in the night, some of the hotel staff came wearing short skirts, short sleeved shirts and with some even on flip flops from the time.
The disco-like light helped give an extra feel that indeed they are in the 70’s and 80’s. While women were posing for pictures and showing off their outfits, men were having their eyes enticed by the ongoing FIFA World Cup encounters from the screen that was erected at the party. A number of beverages were also served, at some point a party member held their glasses up high and demonstrated how they used to gulp their beverages in the 80’s.
