There’s a strong ’70s influence in the look of spring/summer 2011 so it’s no real surprise that Betsey Johnson pieces are getting a lot of attention in our Hawthorne shop as well as online.

“But Betsey’s not a ’70s designer!,” you cry.

Well, yeah, but she was going strong in the early ’90s which, not coincidentally, also happened to be a big ’70s flashback moment. All flowy and floral, but with that punky punch of color which makes Betsey Johnson Betsey Johnson! Check it:

If you’re in Portland, we’ve got tons of vintage floral dresses for you – including more than a few Betsey pieces.

And if you’re anywhere else, or you just have your heart set on the dress above (which will look amazing with some granny boots and a giant sunhat!), you can buy it from our online shop:
