The 70s look is back and stars all over the world, including Sarah Jessica Parker and Kylie Minogue, have been embracing their inner 'hippie chick'.

This season's catwalks are dominated by the decade's iconic styles and trends, including maxi dresses, mini-skirts and hot pants, with designers Marc Jacobs and Rebecca Taylor basing collections on the stylish 70s.

Dawn Hunter from online fashion boutique Fashion Pony said: "The 70s look is one of freedom and expression. It allows the wearer to feel comfortable and stylish at the same time. This year's catwalks - in New York and Paris - were filled with modern-day hippie designs which have been fully embraced by celebs."

70s Hollywood icons, Brigitte Bardot, Romy Schneider and Caterine Deneuve, as well as Jean Seberg were prominent 70s fashion trendsetters, wearing swirling prints and maxi hemlines.

For those who want to follow in the celebrity footsteps and embrace their inner 'hippie chick' without breaking the bank, stylish 70s clothes can be found on fashion website www.fashionpony.co.uk, which have a contemporary take on the decade's look, at affordable prices.

Speaking about on-trend tie dye jersey maxi dress with lattice back detailing and three-quarter sleeves, Dawn said: "This dress is perfect for the modern hippie chick. It can be worn day or night, flatters most shapes and offers comfort and style - letting the wearer look like they're not even trying. It needs no further accessories to look its best, which makes it even better value for money. It can be worn with sandals or in true hippy style, bare feet."
