Dollydagger is a great online destination when on the hunt for all clothes retro. As well as quality US brands Stop Staring and Mode Merr, they also stock the fabulous UK based Tara Starlet.

The collection includes this exclusive 1950s-style swing dress. Whilst the high street seems to be awash with prom dress styles at the moment, it’s the details on this design that make it stand out. As well as a full circle skirt, it’s got a flattering sweetheart neckline, a boned bodice and a halterneck strap that can be detached depending on how demure, or otherwise, you feel.

It’s available in red, black or royal blue satin at £75, or a more playful (and slightly cheaper at £69) polka dot print.

The sun is starting to struggle out from the clouds, and that makes it an awful lot easier to start thinking of spring and summer clothing purchases. As with most years, the fashion pack are using lots of floral prints in this season's designs, which is no bad thing for retro lovers.

This White Cotton Floral Dress from Dorothy Perkins is a very sweet, traditional fifties style that is ideal for sunnier months. Both the shape and print combine to make this a surprisingly faithful fifties reproduction from a high street shop. A slightly flowing circle skirt, combined with a fitted though demure bodice make this an instantly recognisable retro item.

It's available from Dorothy Perkins for £30.
