Designers tend to look back on the ’70s as a sort of sartorial halcyon days, and – judging by the collections – they’re feeling as nostalgic as ever. Consider Rok Hwang’s modern take on a retro classic: the psychedelic blouse. As well as the print, this statement piece boasts a double neck-tie detail and billowing sleeves, meaning it’s an effortless way to update myriad looks. Put a romantic spin on the season’s Matrix mood by layering it under a sleek and pair with vertiginous stiletto boots. Alternatively, accentuate the blouse’s vintage overtones by pairing it with Racil’s show-stopping, double-breasted and finish with squared-framed for a look worthy of style icons Bianca Jagger and Lauren Hutton.
