The 70’s are back. Whether it’s fringe or suede, the psychedelic decade is all over the runway. Featured in Valentino, Sonia Rykiel, and Jason Wu, this season highlights bohemian floral prints and hippy, round-frame specs. If you’re going back to school or trying to update your closet, here are the essential pieces you need this fall for the 70’s revival.
1. Denim skirt
The denim skirt is a closet staple, but this season midi and even maxi are the lengths to look for. Along with front buttons, a darker wash and more distinct seam lines, the denim skirt has been revamped. Pair it with suede, lace-up sandals and a button-down shirt for a more relaxed look.

2. Peasant blouse
The peasant blouse is the most versatile piece—wear it to a bar on a girl’s night out or throw it on for a busy day running errands. This hippy top looks great in white for a “chill vibes only” feel as well as black for a sexier mood. Wear it with blue jeans during the day or a suede skirt at night.

3. Long sleeved dress
Nothing says bohemian goddess like a flowy dress. Whether it’s patchwork or paisley, a patterned piece will make the ultimate statement. The long sleeves are the perfect transition to fall weather. Wear it with suede boots and silver hoops and you’ll be grooving down the runway in no time.
