Step back into the '70s with John Travolta's iconic three-piece suit from Saturday Night Fever up for auction. 🕺🪩 SaturdayNightFever JohnTravolta
Von Brandenstein stumbled upon the Leading Male boutique in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn, which, ironically, is where Manero lived in the film. She returned to the store with Travolta and director John Badham shortly after and they bought the suit, plus three other identical versions that could be alternated during the dance sequences. Leading Male’s label was purposely cut out by the film’s wardrobe department during pre-production to prevent it from showing on the screen.
The jacket features exaggerated peak lapels with pick stitching, two oversized pockets, and a double vent that was common in men’s tailoring at the time. The matching single-breasted vest also has two pockets, while the pants have dramatically flared hems that proved great for dance maneuvers. The black shirt Travolta wore under the three-piece is also part of the sale.
The Hollywood: Classic & Contemporary auction also includes legendary pieces like Indiana Jones’s machete, Iron Man’s helmet, and asuit comes with extras, including signed photos, a lobby card, press kit, album, and DVD of the flick.
