Lora button front chiffon maxi dress.

If you thought you'd seen the last of grunge back in the 1990s, think again. Grunge is back again this year, although it's a more dressed-up version.

It's still comfortable and tartan-heavy but slightly less dirty.

Think more Miranda Kerr than Courtney Love. Haul out your Dr Martens from the back of the cupboard and team them with a pair of distressed jeans, or go right back to the 90s and wear them with a floral maxi dress.

Concert T-shirts can get an airing, along with leather jackets and deliberately messy bed hair.

Pull out a knee-length skirt and pop an oversized coat over the top and go overboard with some heavy eye makeup.

Have some fun with 2014-style grunge. But don't get too carried away with your op-shopping for true grunge pieces - I suspect this is probably a short-lived resurrection.
