Cape Back Dress from Halston Heritage

Capebackdress

Although the seventies trend that's swept this Summer's high street collections has brought plenty of great vintage inspired designs, there's never anyone quite so en pointe as the original designers. Taking inspiration from the house's original designs, this Cape Back Dress comes from Halston's Heritage line.

In a vibrant shade of coral, the mini dress is elevated beyond the ordinary by chic draping and rich fabric. The cape back design creates a head-turning silhouette, against the simplicity of the sleeveless dress cut.

It's now available in the UK from Matches Fashion for £398.

Bow Shift Dress from River Island

Coralshift

Thanks to the recent love affair with sexier sixties styles from across the pond, there's been fewer nods to the era's youthful British fashion of late. With summer's return, that's about to change with pieces like this Bow Shift Dress from River Island showing inspiration from girlish mid-sixties chic.

The simple shift design has a sharp cut and great angles, with an exaggerated a-line skirt and fitted upper. The addition of a bow at the high neckline ensures the style is kept young while also creating the minimised bust that was popular at the time. Finished in a block coral pink, it's perfect for pairing with your dolly shoes and white tights.

It's available now from River Island for £39.99.
