What's in the Box

Long-sleeve top with attached fringed waistcoat
Psychedelic floral bell-bottom trousers
Peace-symbol medallion on purple cord
Matching floral headband

This Kids 1960s Hippie Costume turns any retro dress-up day into a peace-and-love parade. The cream knit top has a permanently-attached brown fringed waistcoat (no layers to lose), and the purple bell-bottoms feature wild psychedelic florals that scream flower-power era.

Standout details: vertical fringing on the waistcoat hem, oversized yellow peace medallion, and coordinating floral headband. The trousers have an elasticated waist—pull-on easy, no buttons or zips for your kid to fumble with. Fabric feels lightweight and comfortable for all-day wear, whether that's a school parade or a themed birthday party.

Perfect For

Book Week & Historical Dress-Up: A natural pick for 1960s history projects, decade timelines, or any classroom peace-movement theme—pairs with cardboard protest signs or tie-dye props for extra authenticity.

School Retro Days & Disco Parties: Works equally well for 60s/70s decade dress-up days, groovy dance parties, or end-of-year school concerts with a retro soundtrack.

Halloween & Costume Parties: Brings the flower-child vibe to trick-or-treating, costume events, or casual dress-up play—comfortable enough for hours of fun.

How to Wear It

Pair with sandals or simple sneakers to keep the hippie aesthetic. Add round tinted sunglasses (not included) for full groovy effect. Skip modern accessories—the peace medallion and headband are all you need.

Parent FAQs

What size should I order?

Check the size chart for chest and height measurements. If your child is between sizes, we'd say size up—the elasticated waist on the trousers gives flex, and a slightly looser fit suits the retro style.

Can they wear this over regular clothes, or does it need a base layer?

The top is a full long-sleeve layer, so no undershirt needed. In cooler weather, a plain beige tee underneath won't show. The trousers work over regular underwear—no leggings required.

How do I wash this? Is the fabric durable?

Gentle cold machine wash, inside-out. The faux-suede fringing holds up well, but skip the dryer—hang to dry to keep the flares looking sharp and the print vibrant.

Is this suitable for all-day school wear at Book Week or a concert?

Absolutely. The cotton-blend top and lightweight trousers are comfortable for extended wear. The waistcoat is attached, so no risk of it going missing halfway through the day.

Care: Cold gentle wash, inside-out. Hang to dry, no tumble dryer.
