Of all the 80s revivalist trends that have hit big this year, Body Conscious dressing is one of the most authentic. It's one the designers are doing well, too, as proven by this D&G Shift Dress.

In a light cream, this dangerously figure-hugging dress takes a demure shift dress and amps up the sex appeal as only the 1980s could, creating an almost Sharon Stone-esque finished look. Made from a cotton and silk blend, it's as luxurious as it is head-turning.

Mary Janes have become the staple high heeled shoe for retrophiles, but rarely do they come so cute and kitsch as this pair from Dorothy Perkins.

These Pink Bar Courts have a mid heel and a bubbly rounded toe. Combined with the fab bubblegum pink shade, these patent faux leather shoes are affordable and ideal for mid sixties style.

Jaeger London may have made their biggest waves with high powered 80s fashion, but they've come past this dated workwear look to make luxurious pieces with broad retro influence. This Wing Collar Cropped Tux is a great example of their fashion forward pieces' vintage inspiration.

While twenties and thirties fashion is usually flapper dresses, this jacket's art deco influence is a great non-literal interpretation of pre-war design. Straight, striking linear patterns combine with a rich light mink shade to great effect. The end result is a luxurious statement piece that could become a classic.

Looking back ten years and the very notion that Victoria Beckham (or Adams as she was then) could be making quality designer clothing seems daft at best. But she's certainly done that, and is using plenty of retro style points with a decidedly modern twist.

This Briseux Silk Minidress is from her brand new collection and takes its cues from the classic sixties minidress. With a high collar, capped sleeves and A-line skirt, the silhouette is well done, while the fabric choice and jewelled purple colour add some modern touches.

Get it online from Net-a-Porter for £1195.
