BOHO DRESSES
Boho-chic is a style of fashion drawing on various bohemian and hippie influences, which, at its height in early 2005, was associated particularly with actress Sienna Miller and model Kate Moss in England and (as “bobo” chic) actress and businesswoman Mary-Kate Olsen in the United States.
Sienna Miller’s relationship with – and, for a time, engagement to – actor Jude Law, after they had starred together in the 2004 film, Alfie, kept both her and her style of dress in the media headlines during 2004–05. In December 2004, Vogue featured Miller on its front cover and described her as “the girl of the year”. Later, the ending of her relationship with Law (which resumed temporarily in 2009–10) seemed to signal that boho too was past its peak. In fact, as early as May 2005 the Sunday Times Style magazine had declared that “overexposed” white peasant skirts were “going down”and had advised adherents of boho to “update your boho mojo” by mixing the look with metallic items (anticipating so-called “boho-rock” in 2006) or with layers. By the end of 2005, Miller herself, who claimed later that her boho look was not very original – “I think I’d just come back from traveling or something” – had adopted other styles of dress and her shorter, bobbed hairstyle – ironically a feature of bohemian fashion in the quarter century before World War II – helped to define a new trend in 2007.She was quoted in Vogue as saying “no more boho chic … I feel less hippie. I just don’t want to wear anything floaty or coin-belty ever again. No more gilets …” Even so, in 2008, Miller reflected that
It was a strange social experiment, to be responsible for all that. It made me self-conscious, which, inherently, I’m not. People would say, “I’m sick of boho”, and now I stand up and say, “But I liked those clothes – it’s not my fault that they were copied, you wore them and now you’re sick of them. Also, I did not start the trend.”.
