leisure suit

Polyester seventies outfit

A leisure suit is a casual men's outfit popular in the 1970s, typically consisting of a matching jacket and trousers in polyester or other synthetic fabric, often in bold colors or patterns.

The style became so associated with that era's aesthetic that it now evokes outdated fashion: He looked like he stepped out of a disco in that leisure suit.
