The French fashion house might have been responsible for reviving this epic trend but it’s the original grunge princess, Courtney Love, you should look to for your inspiration. Back in the 90s, her signature dishevelled, rooty blonde hair reached new heights of cool when she accessorised it with a diamante tiara at the 1995 Oscars.

Blogger Chiara Ferragni wore hers with smooth, blown out hair at Coachella but we’ll be wearing ours with lots of natural texture and a truckload of dry shampoo to give it something to cling to. Feeling the urge to pop out and do a spot of tiara shopping? Our Editorial Director, Liz Hambleton suggests going vintage for the most authentic look. ‘Hit up your local flea market or car boot sale for the best buys, alternatively try department store bridal boutiques for a huge selection of tiaras and ornate headpieces. So much cooler than a flower crown. Just saying…
