While Eary opted to keep her stonewash jeans skinny rather than go flared, they came covered in patches of peace signs, cacti and fish bones to add to the show’s trippy vibe.

Accessories also channelled the 1970s, with wide mirrored aviators, tasselled silk scarves and neckerchiefs harking back to fashion’s period of all things far out:

Prada

From emerging designers to established luxury brands, fashion’s love for the 1970s didn’t discriminate.

Prada’s collection of topstitched suiting and denim in a palette of indigo, beige and brown was yet another example of the label’s signature quirky take on the classics – as Miuccia said herself: “You pick something that is old-fashioned. It’s the only new thing.”

Costume National

Elsewhere, a handful of brands teased out the 1970s nascent punk aesthetic. Inspired by legends of rock, from David Bowie to Jimi Hendrix, Costume National showed a suiting-heavy collection with flared fits, oversized lapels and wide-collared shirts echoing the style of some of rock’s most ostentatious icons.

Colours ranged from azure blue to burnt orange, managing to be bold but not garish, while last year’s all-white trend made a reappearance in the form of white wide-legged suits – think Tony Manero in Saturday Night Fever:

Saint Laurent

At Saint Laurent, Hedi Slimane referenced the style of one of the decades closest to his heart, producing a range of psychedelic rock-inspired pieces that included everything from slim jeans and shearling jackets to snakeskin boots and fringed suede:

On The High Street

So, it’s clear designers have been inspired by the seventies this season – but why should we care? Is the 1970s trend really destined to cement itself in the cultural consciousness and trickle down to high street shop windows? Or will it shine like a disco ball for a split second before splintering into a thousand insignificant pieces?
