The Oscars has gone disco -- or at least embracing the gilded glamour of the 1970s.

A fringe of gold and silver sequins dangle over the final stretch of the red carpet, and the stage for Sunday’s show was inspired by the glittery, glam styles of the disco era.

Production designer Derek McLane said the ’70s were on his mind when he was creating the look for the Oscar stage, framed by 9,000 kilograms of golden Swarovski crystals.

“I was really influenced by ... 1970s glam in this year’s design, so the radiating crystals in the proscenium are definitely part of that,” said McLane, who won an Emmy Award for his design of the 2014 Oscar set. 

“That was one of my favorite periods of American filmmaking. So many exciting movies were made then. And that sense of high glamour from that period really feels like a certain type of Hollywood that is sexy and glamorous and meets the fantasy of people who dream about what Hollywood is.”

The gold lame look also went with the Oscars’ theme this year, “We all dream in gold.” (AP)
