Keeping it simple has never been more of a ‘look’. You can thank fashion’s fixation with all thing’s nineties minimalism for that. Or maybe it’s the Y2K revival favouring clean, classic basics – either way, we’re in. Celebrating polished power-casual, we’ve got all the elegantly unfussy staples you need to make a unique and chic spring closet with staying power.
CITY STAPLES
Tap into a sportier feeling for a low-key look to take daytime
THROW A LEATHER BLAZER IN THE MIX
Embrace an off-white leather blazer for spring to summer transitioning
A drop to help you cruise through the seasonal interlude, these on-point fits are reliable for building out-the-door ensembles in minutes. Adaptable for city, work, low-key and everyday living, look no further than this undemanding, modern and streamlined spin on pared-back monochrome.
TAKE INSPO FROM MENSY TAILORING
Go with the fierce styling - a slightly tapered leg, bold block heel and slick low pony
Later, for a refined way to do holiday style, target suitcase-friendly shapes and special details to take beachside to evening. Think billowing cottons and silky slips for a chic bikini-complementing take on the humble pool cover-up. Plus, plenty of sunshine-ready tops, shorts and loose trousers.
CLEAN ‘N’ EASY
When it comes to spring trousers, our focus on menswear-inspired tailoring and relaxed shapes wins every time
For a fresh start, reach for the textural, ribbed-knit lightweight dress as a mood setter. Introduce the coolest cutaway sandals-to-be-seen-in and a strong, grounding blazer for whopping fashion points. Or maybe the reliable vests are more your style move? Pick sleeveless sheer details or contrasting tanks.
ADD OOMPH WITH STATEMENT SLEEVES
Pair with modern black, white and navy trousers in easy drawstring, utility, wide-leg and high waist options
Top of our wishlist is the key waistcoat and all the blazers in black, white and lovable leather. Over dresses, worn alone as tops and giving jeans a face-lift (all that’s needed is a gold chain or two). A white tee under that sleek black suit’s not a bad idea for an update on rock grunge formal.
TRY NEW SPRING TEXTURES
A ribbed lightweight knitted dress is ready to go
Think of this capsule as the foundation blocks to whip up graphic black, white and navy medleys. It’s a ruffle shoulder top with white wide-leg trouser, a black vest trimmed with a pure white piping, a go-to pocket-front shirt – worn with everything! Effortless wearability that never goes out of fashion. Like we said, simple.
POMPOM TO GO
Nothing we’d rather take to cocktail hour
