Fashion is circular, with trends coming back into style years after they become decade defining looks, often helped by TV shows and films modernising these familiar fashions.
While Noughties inspired dresses and low rise jeans have been the fashion focus recently, personal stylist Lindsay Edwards thinks there's some clear Seventies inspired looks appearing in stores.
With shows like Amazon's Daisy Jones & The Six trending full of bold orange and brown colour schemes, TikTok has already pounced on Daisy's 'Cool-Girl Wave' hair.
Looking closely, there's a whole host of Seventies looks in fashion right now but they can easily be modernised for a 2023 twist.

Bell bottom jeans
Where else to star than with a bell bottom jean, that Lindsay points out "were actually introduced onto the fashion scene in the Sixties."
"The Bell bottoms didn't reach their peak popularity until the Seventies," Lindsay added. "Denim trend cycles are slow moving. We have been eased in to their resurgence gently, having witnessed the gradual transition from skinny jeans to a more flared feel for a few seasons now.
"Bell bottoms will be here to stay for a while now, this is no fleeting trend."
Softer fabric flares had a resurgence a few years ago, complete with paisley patterns and bright colours, to give a more Sixties vibe but the denim flare is firmly Seventies and easily spotted on the high street right now.
Satin shirts
Bold prints, flowy fabrics and satin shirts are easily recognisable as a hallmark of the era, and the stylist from Bedfordshire thinks they're making a return.
Lindsay said: "Wide collared satin shirts were very popular with men and women during the Seventies - tucked into a pair of bell bottom jeans naturally. Satin shirts are everywhere right now, but if budget allows I'd urge you to consider silk as an alternative to satin.
"Whilst the appearance between them is fairly minimal, silk is a far more breathable option being a natural fabric. Silk shirts are timeless pieces and will surpass any trend."
Modernise your satin shirt by moving away from the orange and brown tones of the era - or lean all in and live your retro dream.
Shag haircuts
After the mullet craze of 2020, last year wolf cuts exploded onto the scene but now Lindsay says the classic Seventies shag is back.
She said: "One of 2023's biggest hair trends is the shag haircut, a versatile style that works with virtually any hair type. It features short choppy layers, long curtain bangs, and lots of texture.
"It was hugely popular in the Seventies, but is enjoying a well earned revival. Wednesday star Jenna Ortega clearly got the memo, recently swapping her trademark pigtail braids from the Netflix series for the iconic shag haircut."
The cool-girl wave is a great way to lean in to the Seventies styling without committing to a cut but if you're wanting to dive in, the shag cut is bang on trend.
Chunky platform heels
"Platforms are the absolute epitome of Seventies fashion," explained Lindsay. "As disco fever took hold, party goers danced the night away in shoes with dramatically height-boosting sole and heels.
"It feels really exciting to see their long awaited return to the High Street. A metallic platform will go with any colour you pair them with so are ultra versatile"
If you're hoping to tone down the look, you can always wear them under your bell bottom jeans to give the platform effect without the knee high boot.
A more casual version would be the platform ankle boot, which can be worn to the office or on a night out - great if you're hoping to stay on trend but save some cash.
Bold sunglasses
No look is complete without a killer pair of sunglasses to effortlessly push back your hair or hang from the front of your band t-shirt.
Lindsay said: "Sunglasses took the fashion world by storm in the Seventies. As well as the aviator style, oversized glasses with lightly tinted lenses were also very popular."
Aviators have Top Gun Maverick to thank for their resurgence into the world of cool but if you're not hoping to hang out with Goose, try a round lens that's slightly oversized.
The key here is a brown or orange tinted lens with similar colouring on the frames, neutral tones will also make sure your sunnies will go with any outfit you choose.
