The spring edition of working wardrobe
Spring is just around the corner, which entails changes in our daily and work wardrobe. We are sure you may be already asking yourself what designs you should invest in to look not only chic but also stylish at the office. Well... we come to you with the answer right now! We introduce a guide to models that fit into the framework of the business dress code, as well as current trends.
Timeless blazer
A well-tailored blazer is a key element of the office dress code, which adds elegance and undeniable professionalism to any outfit. Thanks to it, we can create a variety of sets, since it works both in combination with shirt dresses, midi skirts, and classic trousers. The devil lies in choosing the right colour or favourite print.
In addition to the classic black, this season's popular colours are brown, grey, and navy blue. If you prefer monochrome models, we recommend the proposals from Bottega Veneta or Isabel Marant. If you are a pattern lover, we have something really special for you. The houndstooth and herringbone patterns prevail at The Mannei, stripes and checks dominate the Saint Laurent collection, but a very appealing alternative for work this spring may be a minimalist monogrammed Gucci blazer!
Formal straight-leg trousers
The best trousers for the office are those with straight legs. Even though black pairs are the most popular, in spring we encourage you to experiment a bit with other fashionable shades, such as banana yellow, ash grey, ivory or sepia. We are sure that they will bring a bit of freshness to your wardrobe and add character to any styling.
As far as details are concerned - this year we recommend designs from Saint Laurent, Jacquemus, Gucci or Isabel Marant. These brands have numerous interesting options, so you can easily find the one that suits you. At the beginning of the season, focus on models made of cotton, but when the long-awaited hot and sunny days arrive, linen is the go-to material.
Minimalist shirt
The white shirt is a reliable classic, but it is worth considering other options when styling it for work. Why not try out a fashionable yet subtle colour, stripes or even denim? All of these suggestions are so timeless and versatile that they will successfully fit with the rest of your ensemble.
Only the necessary? Gucci, Stella McCartney and Balmain KIDS SHOES 25-39. Toteme and Loewe chose thinner and thicker stripes, while denim made an appearance in one of Gabriela Hearst’s recent collections for the Chloé fashion house and in Victoria Beckham’s portfolio.
Classic midi skirt
The midi skirt is a yet another essential of the business dress code, which provides comfort while still making you look attractive. It is important to remember that you do not have to limit yourself to one cut, because your expectations could be met by a pencil skirt, as well as by a flared, pleated or trapezoid cut.
If we were to point you to the most interesting items, this season it would definitely be designs from Saint Laurent, Alaïa, Dolce & Gabbana or Jil Sander. The collections of those brands include every conceivable cut and material, subtle shades and classic patterns: from houndstooth and stripes to a minimalist version of animal patterns.
Roomy shopper bag
If you don't have that perfect work bag in your closet yet, there is no better option than a shopper.
What about the trend-setting blue.
Scarves / shawls.
The most durable material for shoppers is leather. Of course classics in black and white are a sure bet, for example Gucci’s 'Ophidia', but you can also immerse yourself in the ever-present browns and beiges from Ferragamo, Chloé or Fendi.
Add to wish list? Bottega Veneta covered the iconic 'Arco' with the hue and added the iconic 'Intreccio' weave.
Versatile loafers and ballet flats
Footwear for work that is perfect for spring? Loafers and minimalist ballet flats for the win! They are comfortable enough to get you through the day and classic enough to match any outfit. Check out our picks.
First things first – irreplaceable loafers. The most versatile models are waiting for you at Saint Laurent, Ferragamo and Jimmy Choo. You can choose from earth tones, white and – the most common but unbeatable – black. In addition to their horsebit classics, Gucci Boots / wellingtons.
