Bandanas are in vogue!

The 90’s are back! The looks  popularised by Beyoncé and Christina Aguilera are back on the catwalks. The “sudden craze” around bandanas and scarves is revived .  Just fold it into a triangle with the V shape facing down, place it at the forehead and tie it underneath your hair . This accessory is a “must” as is racing through the ready to wear fashion and the markets.

 The bohemian look worn below by Christina Aguilera with a cropped red T-shirt and low waisted denim trousers is a classic of the 90s. This trend now is taking us by surprise. The bandana can be worn with a denim jacket or even a suit. While, the divas preferred denim trousers with a top and high heels, the catwalks, especially Dior and Marc Jacobs are recreating new looks.

Marc Jacobs collection 2020 made an homage to the mods and Jackie Kennedy. The 1960s were revived through matching mini dresses with A line coats and tights in pastel colours. This time though, instead of the 1960s hats the looks are accessorised with matching head scarves.

Dior Fall 2020 presents the 1970s allure, tailored jackets presenting the “Le Bar” style , full of attitude and confidence in combat boots and fishnet tights  . The collection highlights depicts plaid coats, jumpsuits, denim jackets and bias cut checked outfits. The woman presented on the catwalk is not as relaxed but rather sharp and determined. She is a feminist ready for a march ! Within this atmosphere we are introduced to our loved accessories: bandanas. If, in the past I would have totally ignored the statement, now the message is bold and direct, you can match a bandana with almost everything. The catwalk spoke!
