I did a party like that some years ago...
Hit the local thrift shop - they have some wonderful stuff, that can be happily re-used. all tye and dye type of stuff, including bed covers, curtains, bead curtains... for clothes, you can go pretty wild - see the Spy who Shagged me for inspiration!!!
For my party, I did a lot of stuff myself as well:
I purchased in a craft store beads by the bucket, then strung them - I had fun doing that with a friend (and some wine....), and it looked great
Also, I love painting and crafts, so I got some cardboard, and painted with large colorful flowers to cover a wall (remember flower power???) you could even pre-cut a couple of basic flower shapes (or peace signs) and color spray them on cardboards, so you can then get rid of the decoration... I prefere to paint on cardboard, as plain paper is too flimsy.
For the food, you can stay simple: sandwiches, beer, and some pre-mixed margaritas in pitchers... :) or a barbecue with hot dogs and hamburgers...
Don't forget jell'o shots!!! (1 jello box, mix 1 cup of hot water, add 1 cup vodka, cool well in little sauce mini-cups that you buy in any party store). you can mix alcools and tasts (lime/tequila, orange/vodka, pineapple/ruhm... ), but eat responsibly!!!

you should definently rent a disco ball cheap if you don't already have one... you should have it be a 70's Disco Roller Skate party! Roller skating was really big in the 70's and it would be fun... hope that helps... (if you do a skate party you'd want to wear short shorts, tube socks, white t-shirt, and your hair like Farrah Fawcett hair... rent a lot of pairs of skates... all sizes)
