If you are on the look out for a 60s feel for your denim, Levi Vintage might have the thing with the reissued 1966 501 jeans.

Made from Levi's 14oz selvedge denim, the 1966 501 has a regular fit with tapered knee, button fly and the usual Levi detailing. The one thing you'll either appreciate or hate is the finish – an 'archive wash' that gives a slightly (but not overly) used look to the new denim.

Available now in limited numbers, they sell for £139 per pair.

Tiefront

Among all the traditional femininity and pin-up chic, one of the most characteristic fashion trends of the 1950s was the crossover of menswear into women's wardrobes. From taking workwear denims into the mainstream, to wearing pieces of military garb, the fifties set the trend for decades to come.

This Tie-front Denim Shirt is an ideal choice for that injection of retro charm. It takes a men's shirt shape, in utilitarian denim fabric, and adds some sex appeal with a high tie front and sewn 'rolled sleeves'. Adaptable for many retro looks from fifties to 70s, this shirt is a truly versatile piece.

Get it online from Boohoo for £18.
