Flower Power in Bloom All Over Again
Blogged under Apparel, Furniture and Home Decor, House and Garden, Kitchen Wares, Shoes and Accessories by Debi Martin on Thursday 29 May 2008

Flower power is back – on dresses, tops, purses, shoes, even in housewares. But these aren’t those dainty, sometimes dowdy Laura Ashley flowers but big, bold, edgy designs tibi-shift-dress.jpgwith retro themes. Get this take on the 1960s Earth mother maxi dress in a tropical-printed silk from Marciano ($198). For considerably more, this bohemian maxi by Stella McCartney recalls the 1970s ($1,495). You could go from daytime to tripping the night fantastic in this glamorous plumeria silk tunic with elastic cuffs and a drawstring dropped waist ($1,070). Grab this shift dress (pictured) in an eye-popping fuschia pink floral print by Tibi ($192). This Esprit flower top has a vibrant floral pattern, empire waist, camisole stitching, spaghetti straps and hidden side zipper ($49.50). our handbag will be in full bloom with Marimekko’s cheerful Poppies bag ($75). Take a look at Dansko’s floral platform shoes, as comfortable as they get ($49.50). If you really want to go retro, get the real thing at Vintage Swank, where you can get this 1950s purple and neon flower print Hawaiian dress ($125). Back home, you can serve hors d’oeuvres from this 1960s fiberglass serving tray ($65) or cuddle up with the Freckles Flower Power duvet cover and pillow shams ($40, full/queen). Flower-power up your car with Blik’s Flower Power decals ($30 for pack of seven) or even your walls with ADzif ’s blooming orange wall decal ($45).
