70s Going On 60s: Shift Dresses & A Line Shapes

70s shapes and styles have been massively popular recently and we’ve had a lot of fun wearing them! We love this decade for it’s flared hemlines, crazy patterned fabrics as well as it’s inventive use of denim, corduroy and suede.

There’s no ignoring the 60s hippy culture which influenced fashion at the time. Take Jimi Hendrix’s flamboyant, bohemian dress sense and statement headband – all of which became symbols of the time.

Did you know the first ever Glastonbury happened in 1970, the day after Jimi Hendrix died?

But right now were interested in taking a step back and blending 70s patterns with classic 60s shapes to create a hybrid fusion of flattering styles to inspire you this season!

The 70s Patterned Shirt

Right now our top pick is the 70s vintage embroidered patterned shirt. This is an incredibly versatile item in your wardrobe because it works well as a layer but is also a statement piece in itself. You can add a smart jacket or wear yours tucked into a 60s mini skirt or jeans for a more casual feel.

The best thing about vintage shirts is that each one has a different pattern or embroidered design which makes your choice endlessly exciting. With such a vast variety to pick from you’re guaranteed to find your perfect shirt buddy!

The A Line Flare

One of our favourite combinations at Brag is an embroidered skirt with an A-line flared mini skirt. The A-line skirt is fantastic as it flatters all body shapes, pulling in at the smallest part of the waist and flaring out to create an hour glass shape. Try a block colour, striped or tartan skirt for a touch of 60s styling, a decade which is set to erupt this season, with shift dresses, geometric prints and bright bold colours set to make a massive comeback.

The Shift Dress

Or wear a block shift dress over your shirt for an instant 60s feel.
