For many people, disco conjures nostalgic images of films like Saturday Night Fever or
celebs partying at Studio 54, but for model Gem Refoufi, the sound of
the ’70s means something more. “Disco is just so hopeful and fun,” says
Refoufi. “Music now is great, but it’s harder and less positive. There
are only a few modern artists who can give you that feeling of being
uplifted.” Handpicked by fellow music enthusiast Tom Ford to front a
campaign for his eponymous beauty line, Refoufi never leaves home
without a playlist packed with classic disco tunes. Her selection of
grooves from Earth, Wind & Fire, Donna Summer, and Wild Cherry is
all about providing a touch of inspiration while getting you out on the
dance floor. With disco-era powerhouses like Chic and Giorgio Moroder
releasing new albums this year, Refoufi’s selection feels on trend, but
for this model, these songs are all about the mood they evoke: “As soon
as I hear disco on my iPhone, my spirit’s up and I feel ready for
anything!”
