With spring on its way, now is the perfect time to look ahead to the new season – and it’s a tale of two halves. From Seventies styling to slick utilitarian silhouettes, the options are as diverse as they are delectable

RETRO SWING

Call it hippy deluxe, festival chic or bohemian romance – whichever way you look at it, the spirit of summer is distinctly Seventies. Suede and denim are the textures to fall for, complete with exaggerated florals and relaxed silhouettes for laid-back swinging style
