The Sixties print blouse

IT’S the decade that just keeps on giving — yes, mid-Sixties psychedelic swirls and retro florals are back once again.

The return, or should we say ‘re-return’, of this trend is nicely timed for the opening of the hotly awaited Mary Quant exhibition at the V&A (see our cover story), and a vibrant print blouse like this one from Tabitha Webb (right) is a good way to work the look into your wardrobe.

Zara also has an eyecatching top for a more reasonable £39.99 (zara. com). I often caution against adopting an era too enthusiastically, but in this case I would say go for it!

Pair your Sixties blouse with cropped trousers and square-toed pumps (ideally with a buckle on the front) to channel Catherine Deneuve in the iconic 1967 film Belle De Jour and you’ll look spot-on for 2019.
