Barbara hulanicki topshop men

You can almost see the queues of 40 something year olds gathering outside Topshop Oxford Circus next Tuesday when the Barbara Hulanicki for Topshop collection drops.

They might reminisce over the one quid dresses they picked up at legendary 60s-70s emporium Biba. You wonder why it has taken Hulanicki, the woman responsible for reasonably-priced disposable frippery to hook up with Topshop, where the legacy of what Biba did in its heyday still lives on.

For this first collection, Hulanicki has envisioned a good girl and a bad girl, wearing flirty puff-shouldered dresses, dramatic wide trousers and grey suede jacket and short shorts and body-con off-shoulder dresses. Prints have been developed from Hulanicki’s whimsical sketches of dreamy girls from another world proving that Biba’s founder still has an eye that might see more fashion from her that is yet to come.
