Collection: Kendal Calling Fancy Dress

THE SUMMER OF LOVE

It's location in The Lake District is perhaps one of the most beautiful of all the festivals going ahead this Summer, but that’s not why it’s one of our favourites! The reason we love Kendal Calling Festival so much here at Smiffys is because of the fantastic Fancy Dress parade and celebrations that now take place as tradition every year – the only change is that this year it will be taking place on Sunday. Festival-goers, young and old go all out as they don costumes and painted faces to enjoy the themed festival areas and family activities. So get ready to unleash your wild side as this year’s fancy dress theme is all about taking a trip back to 1967 and The Summer of Love. Yes. The 60’s hippie movement is coming to the Lakes and we couldn’t be happier about it. Think florals, psychedelic prints, flower crowns and tinted sunglasses of all colours! You could pair together some flared trousers and a funky tie-dye T-shirt. One of our Carnival Jackets will give off perfect Sgt Pepper vibes. We also have plenty of accessories if you’d prefer to add subtle hints like this Peace Sign Necklace, to your festival outfits. So get ready to swing into the 60’s this Summer!
