No you haven’t been transported back in time to the age of free-love and flower power. It’s 2020 and the tie-dye trend is back with a vengeance, reworked and remastered into a more wearable everyday print. Here is our selection of the best – there’s something for everyone.
How to embrace the tie-dye trend
Fable premium sporty leather sandal in blue tie dye, £32 (was £40), ASOS
From OG’s Teva, to Prada’s Nomad, this style of sandal is everywhere and it’s incredibly versatile, with more colourways and fabrics than you can count. This ASOS tie-dye pair are ticking all the boxes.
Shape Enhancing Bandeau Bikini Top, £24, Next
Multi Belted Bikini Briefs, £16, Next
Tie-dye in neutral tones is stunning, and looks perfect on beachwear (sitting-by-the-paddling-poolwear)
Bleach Tie Dye Mom Tapered Jeans, £39.99, Topshop
On paper tie-dye jeans sound less than desirable, but this stripped-back minimal interpretation is great for summer.
Tori Tie-Dye Midaxi Dress, £55 (was £110), Monsoon
You wouldn’t usually associate tie-dye with occasionwear, but let this dress be the exception to the rule. We love the delicate yellow tones and soft fabric. So elegant.
Dusk Tie Dye Denim Jacket, £45, Weekday
A playful take on the classic denim jacket. Pair with a flowy white sun-dress for extra wow-factor.
Benno Dye Tee Dress, £64 (was £128), All Saints
We love a mix and match. This sleek tie-dye slip dress comes with the perfect accompanying crop t-shirt.
Twisted Vacation Chuck Taylor All Star, £60, Converse
These just scream summer fun. The festivals may be cancelled, but donning a pair of these and blasting your favourite songs will do for now.
A great interpretation for those of us with a monochromatic wardrobe.
Oversized Trousers with Lilac Tie-Dye, £29.99, Pull & Bear
The tie waist. The loose fit. The cropped length. Not only are these a flattering shape, the delicate splashes of colour are to die for.
Tie-Dye Denim Bermuda Shorts, £25.99, Pull & Bear
Basically, Pull & Bear are bossing the tie-dye trend.
Easy breezy blue.
