What do you wear when the sun really shines as though it means it
What do you wear when the sun really shines as though it means it, and you mean to enjoy it? From St. Tropez to Southend, the girls are covering up in long, drifting skirts in the prettiest possible prints. The newest are made on dirndl lines, gathered into a tight waist that is often shirred. Then they add the barest little tee-shirt tops they can find and top the lot with a demure straw hat dripping with flowers. If you prefer something briefer, there are some great new sundresses and playsuits. Cut on real glamour girl lines with halter necklines and bare backs, they are in complete contrast to the almost Victorian look of long skirts. July 1973 P008369

What do you wear when the sun really shines as though it means it, and you mean to enjoy it? From St. Tropez to Southend, the girls are embracing a chic yet modest style with long, flowing skirts adorned in the prettiest prints imaginable. The latest trend takes inspiration from traditional dirndl designs, featuring gathered waists that are often shirred for added elegance. To complete their radiant summer look, they pair these skirts with the most delicate tee-shirt tops they can find and crown themselves with demure straw hats embellished with blooming flowers. For those who prefer a shorter ensemble, there is an array of stunning sundresses and playsuits available. Cut in true glamour girl fashion, these pieces boast halter necklines and bare backs that exude confidence and allure. They stand in stark contrast to the almost Victorian aesthetic of their longer counterparts. This photograph captures the essence of July 1973's fashion scene – a time when men and women alike embraced timeless styles while basking under the glorious sun. Whether rowing on tranquil waters or strolling along sandy beaches, this image showcases individuals expressing their individuality through clothing choices that perfectly blend sophistication with comfort. Preserved by Mirrorpix's Memory Lane Prints collection, this snapshot serves as a delightful reminder of how fashion has evolved over time while still maintaining its ability to capture our imagination.
