It was acceptable in the 70s.
Few people are talking about anything other than Daisy Jones & The Six. Whether you fell in love with the book, built your Friday night around watching the new TV show or are yet to find out why everyone is obsessing over this series, one thing we know for sure is that the buzz around Taylor Jenkins Reid’s story certainly isn’t slowing down.
As we head back in time to the 70s, love, lust and a lot of great music is the main attraction, but fabulous fashion is in no short supply. As you can guess, flared jeans, crop tops and funky florals make up the bulk of what we’re now looking to buy. And it doesn’t look like we’re the only ones, as John Lewis reported searches for flared jeans were up 43%, clogs 20% and jumpsuits 100%, so clearly, the Daisy Jones craze is already catching on.

Of course, this is far from the first time this decade-inspired design has taken a turn in the spotlight, so it isn’t exactly hard to find. From Free People’s Daisy Jones & The Six capsule collection to Mother’s new collection which pays homage to David Bowie’s Ziggy Stardust era, from vintage T-shirts with glittery fonts and graphics to flared jeans with metallic script and tiny gold star detailing, to the beautifully printed cut-out Ba&sh gown, pieces inspired by the era are peppered throughout some of our favourite stores. So we’ve made an edit of just a few of our favourite finds.
Whether you want to dive headfirst into the free-loving fashion era or just perch on the edge with a simple straw bag, there’s something to suit everyone. And we promise we won’t get you to strum along on a guitar.
We The Free Sweet Thing jumpsuit
Denim jumpsuits could be just the ticket for solving the ‘what do I wear’ dilemma, working for a whole host of occasions with minimal styling.
BOWIE X MOTHER Super Cruiser flares
Some of our favourite pieces from Mother’s inspired David Bowie collection include the vintage t-shirts and a raglan cropped cardigan but it’s the flared jeans that are the star of the show. Wear yours with a t-shirt or denim shirt and platform boots.

Clogs have made a serious comeback, and we’re counting down the days until this pair arrives on our doorstep.

Jigsaw Balfour long wide-leg jean
Flared jeans will be coming back into the limelight very soon. But if you’re not yet ready for the standout style, a wide leg will work wonders.

It’s been a long time since we wore a kimono, but can anything elevate an outfit more effortlessly? We think not. And this is a standout style.
