Floral Print Palazzo Trousers from Boohoo

Palazzoprinted

As skinny legged trousers fall back out of favour with mainstream fashion, designers have gone in the opposite direction in this season's fit. Both fifties and seventies style wide-legged trousers are popping up everywhere, with these Floral Print Palazzo Trousers from Boohoo offering something for the braver retro lovers out there.

The palazzo cut is heavily seventies influenced, with a high waistline and loose wide-leg the silhouette is ideal for the luxurious and flowing feel of seventies Riviera style. The bold floral print, while not for the faint of heart, recalls the decadent feel of the mainstream taste of the time.

They're now available online from Boohoo for £20.

Sateen Bandeau Dress from Oasis

Bandeauoasis

Wiggle dresses are a perennial go to for the sexier end of fifties styling, creating the bombshell silhouette that the decade is so known for with ease. For a dress that has all the vampish appeal without being too much for the daytime, this Sateen Bandeau Dress from Oasis is a great choice.

The dress has a definite fifties structure, with a kneelength hemline that's balanced by a sweetheart neckline and halter strap. The tailoring is spot on, with a high cinched waist and just enough hip-hugging to create a great hourglass. Finished in a sweet floral print, the colour palette has a sunny feel that just treads the line of wholesomeness.

It's available now from Oasis for £55.

Florals are always a big focus for designers during the Spring and Summer months, paving the way for a variety of retro eras to provide inspiration. This Codie Floral Printed Smock Dress from Missguided uses a floral print to help create a killer sixties look for the sunshine.

The mini dress silhouette is given an extra 60s element thanks to wide bell sleeves with an added tight cuff, creating a bold outline that contrasts the simplicity of the a-line skirt. With the florals used on the border and cuffs, and chic chiffon-look fabric creates an ethereal style that's a great ode to later sixties looks.

Plum Flower Dress from Fred Flare

Plumflowerdress

The warmer weather can often mean that fitted fashion is the last thing you'll want to wear during the day. The stylish and practical solution is all in the fabric choice, however, as shown in this Plum Flower Dress by Fred Flare.

Taking a structured shape inspired by fifties daywear, the use of a light fabric and slightly loosened fit means this won't be as restrictive as many retro reproduction pieces. The plum floral fabric is a nod to the Hawaiin tropical influence found in American fashion at the time, too.
