Dog tooth check, hounds tooth check or the smaller scale version named puppytooth, is usually in black and white. A two-tone broken check pattern, often in wool, is this season's must have. It originated in the Scottish lowlands, but was popular as a fashionable fabric in the fifties and sixties, especially loved by Hipster culture. However it's also often worn by chefs in the form of trousers as it disguises any food smudges! Vogue have been picking out their favourites and so have Clothes Box with their new in Peggy dress for a taste of fifties dog-tooth!
