Generally associated with artists, writers, and intellectuals, bohemian culture incorporates various clothing styles from around the world, as well as historical costume. This style consists of loose, colorful clothing and has been known as boho chic, hippie style, and Aesthetic dress.
For women, look for billowing dresses and soft, flowing tops. If you can run through a field of flowers comfortably, it’s probably a great bohemian piece. For men, look for tunics, loose-fitting jackets and cardigans, and slouchy sweaters.
Utilize your options if you’re a lady.
- Loose, flowy skirts (think gypsy style)
- Dresses such as tunics or sundresses.
- Even mini- or micro-skirt (especially if paired with above-the-knee boots).
- Many male hippies did wear robes or even skirts. There are skirts made especially for men.
Bohemianism is the practice of an unconventional lifestyle, often in the company of like-minded people and with few permanent ties. It involves musical, artistic, literary or spiritual pursuits. In this context, Bohemians may or may not be wanderers, adventurers, or vagabonds.
