- RENÉE TSE SPECIAL TO TORSTAR

When “Daisy Jones and The Six” premiere in early March, it immediatel­y spurred a re surgence of the boho ’70s era, wardrobe wise.

The limited series based on Taylor Jenkin Reid’s smash hit novel received mixed re views (c’est la vie for book-to-show adapta tions), but fans of fashion can’t stop talking about the titular character’s costumes, inspiring a slew of “Outfits Inspired by Daisy Jones and the Six” TikTok videos and Reels.

Many of lead actor Riley Keogh’s looks in the show are nothing short of inspiratio­nal, drawing on references from Stevie Ni bohemian chic to Bianca Jagger’s rock ‘n glam.

It’s all thanks to costume designer De Wingate, who researched the period ex sively prior to getting the gig.

Wingate curated the wardrobe with a m vintage and reproducti­on pieces, resulti looks that are extremely wearable in 20 especially if you’re heading out on the m festival circuit.

“Seventies movies and documentar­ies served as an incredible wealth of visual resource material,” Wingate told Free People’s blog (the boho-leaning brand has a capsule collection of pieces inspired by the show).

“There are so many different fashion inspiratio­ns from that period: classic rock, boho, hippie looks, glam rock, and psychedeli­c vibes. I sourced things online and hit the flea markets every single weekend for a year looking for amazing pieces. I also incorporat­ed some great pieces from the ’20s and ’30s, since people in the ’70s wore vintage clothing from that period as well.”

If you have the patience to sift through thrift stores for the real-deal pieces, you might well be rewarded. But if not, contempora­ry brands are here to help.
