The iconic era of the 70s has returned to catwalks and style guides across the world this summer and has been passed onto the high streets and online retailers. This summer’s direction has been taken from the likes of Marc Jacobs, Rebecca Taylor and Tracy Reese who have all taken inspiration from the styles first created back in the 70s from forward thinking stylists much like themselves.

The denim trends of the 70s are especially in demand as they begin to hit the streets in the form of high waisted denim shorts and trousers, likely to only appeal to small audience but definitely a style critics say will be big this summer regardless of whether you love it or hate it.

Fun summery dresses inspired by the 70s will also play an integral role in recreating the glam rock look ideal for festivals and summery days. Another 70s favourite which is coming back big this summer is jumpsuits, although not likely to be everybody’s preferred style it will definitely bring back strong visions of the 70s era.

The 70s styled dresses and jumpsuits can be combined with other hot summer trends by wearing them in either floral prints or block colours to maximise the full on-trend summer 2011 look.

However if you’re in doubt on how to get the full 70s look or what to mix the best and safest option will always be our trusty friend – denim! Synonymous with the 70s but by no means a stranger in any of the other decades. To complete the denim 70s look either go for flared or wide-leg style in the customary high waisted jeans.
