Trend Focus: Vintage

Posted In: Fashion

With summer just around the corner, it’s essential that your wardrobe’s just right. Season-to-season, in-between months can result in all kinds of fashion faux pas – and that’s where we can help.

One trend that never gets old is vintage. They say fashion is cyclical, and it’s true. The best way to get style inspiration is by taking a trip down memory lane. So make a statement this summer and bring back a look you love.

From 50s’ inspired LBDs to flower power, we’re picking this season’s essential vintage pieces.

Textured Shift Dress Tropical Maxi Dress Rose Print Skirt

LBD

Nothing says vintage like a little black dress. This timeless piece has carried us stylishly from decade to decade, and is still going strong. We’ve seen many faces to the classic LBD. But for us, the Audrey Hepburn Givenchy dress from Breakfast at Tiffany’s always springs to mind.

In homage to the iconic LBD, we chose this flattering Textured Shift Dress. It proves that you don’t need excessive colour or embellishment to make a statement – the hourglass silhouette speaks for itself.  

To complete the look, team with heels and a clutch for effortless sophistication.

All things floral

Channel your inner hippie with florals this season. 70s’ inspired fashion is ideal for the summer. Forget about bell-bottom trousers and platforms; picture easy-breezy floral maxis, bohemian skirts and colour-block tops. Our Tropical Maxi Dress captures it perfectly.

Rich in colour; this is retro with a difference. Replacing burnt oranges and browns for a more contemporary colour palette, you’ll love how the fiery reds and florals look against your skin. This maxi suits fair and olive complexions alike.

If you’re shopping for a beach holiday, bold florals are essential.  

50s’ chic

Last but not least we had to mention the 50s. Think full skirts, pretty polka-dots and victory rolls brought to life with a touch of red lipstick. It’s all about feminine style with rock ‘n’ roll undertones – a trend packed with personality.

Recreate the look with this sweet Rose Print Skirt. Its muted hues and pleats give an unmissable vintage vibe. Teamed with a simple white t-shirt, this midi is all set for summer.
