I like it when Emma is a Punk



Tartan trousers make a massive punk statement. It is an iconic print connected with the Sex Pistols and instantly conjoures images of punk culture. Studded leather and bold zips and buckles on  the leather jacket convey the passionate aggression that fueled the punks.
Punks would have ripped, torn, spray painted, safety pinned, burned the garments -anything to create shock factor and express their rage!

So it was supremely difficult to conjure images of the generic "hippy" without re-imagining Forrest Gump's Jennay's intense relationship with her guitar and his brush with racism. 
So here is my interpretation: raggedy unwashed knitwear teamed with overtly floral hareems that bring only pure thoughts to the mind. And Emma did feel at one with nature.
