Short and Sweet: Peacocks Swings the 60s Back Into Vogue

    MIDDLESEX, ENGLAND, July 28, 2011 /24-7PressRelease/ -- New York fashion week was full of 60s inspired designs, with cute dresses at the forefront of many collections. Now leading value fashion retailer Peacocks is making the 60s style mini dress one of its key looks.

Peacocks are currently retailing a range of styles to suit all tastes and purposes and, most importantly, all budgets - from smart 3/4-sleeve offerings suitable for the office through to punchy prints perfect for a night out on the town.

The Peacocks range shows off edgy outlines as styled by Mary Quant and thigh-high hemlines a la Brigitte Bardot. The crisp tailoring of Jackie Kennedy with splashes of lipstick red, burnt umber and cobalt blue snatched straight from Twiggy's finest fashion shots.

A spokesperson for Peacocks commented: "Go for bold with bright blocks of colour or a vibrant Pucci style print, and team with your favourite pair of block colour heels for evening wear or a fabulous pair of knee high boots and thick black tights for a day time look. Complete your retro revival with a feline flick in liquid liner and lashings of black mascara."

With Peacocks mini dresses available from as little as GBP18, this is one tried and tested trend that everyone can afford.
