From Baz Luhrmann's musical drama The Get Down to Ashish’s rainbow disco divas for AW16 – Studio 54 is having something of a re-birth. Sequins, bell bottoms, more sequins…yep, Bianca Jagger is our ultimate spirit animal for a disco-themed night out.

But when it comes to the effortless cool, rock ‘n’ roll sartorial choices from the 1970s, there’s one character we turn to for that I Just Got Out Of Bed look: Kate Hudson in Almost Famous AKA Penny Lane. The shearling coat. A closet of gypset-style crop tops. That hair ‘do. Is there really anyone cooler?

So it seemed fitting the 37-year-old actress would channel her on-screen character – which scored Kate her first Oscar nomination when she was just 21 in 2001 - for a ‘70s inspired birthday bash in Hollywood.

To celebrate her long-time pal Nicole Richie turning 35, Miss Hudson rocked a black jumpsuit, a white faux fur wrap and - of course – a crop of tight curls a la Penny Lane.

The birthday girl herself dazzled in her own House of Harlow 1960 x Revolve creation - a maxi gold halter-dress (£205) - with A-list attendees from Cameron Diaz and Jessica Alba reportedly dancing to Diana Ross classics around a roller rink.

Major #PartyGoals right now. And serious nostalgia...
