Weekend on the horizon and with it an invitation to a garden party? We give you tips on what to style depending on the occasion and the weather.
Meeting in a relaxed atmosphere
If you're meeting friends for an afternoon drink or the master of the house's culinary display at the grill, choose clothes that don't restrict your movements. Don't overdo the elegance so you don't look and feel uptight. Long or short jeans, a T-shirt and comfortable shoes will be reliable. Throw a pullover or sweatshirt over your shoulders in case it gets a bit chilly.
Cool Guy Jean - the Dsquared2 jeans, are worth buying just for the name of the model. They accentuate the silhouette with a low rise and slightly tapered legs, and feature the brand's signature rips and paint stains. There is also room for shiny sequins. In the same brand's catalogue, we find an equally interesting design, but with a higher waist. A nice combination is offered by Gucci - navy blue trousers with cream-coloured drawstrings at the waist, a pullover with colourful logos and a cashmere jacket, together with socks and flip-flops, currently on show in European fashion capitals.
Even more casual!
Want to be even more comfortable? No problem, choose a chic tracksuit. Wear it with flip-flops and socks, no need to be shy anymore! Givenchy suggests teaming your tracksuit with a hooded jacket. Heron Preston invites you to go on adventures in the urban jungle. Versace uses the same black-and-gold pattern from the T-shirt to tie the look together.
Like in youth
When you get together with people you know from school, you can bring them back to the past in fashion. In recent months the trends of the nineties have made an incredible comeback: wide, ragged trousers, voluminous shirts - especially flannel shirts, denim jackets and millions of patches. Nothing to do but remember the good old days with a "Best of 90s" playlist....
This clothing carries a message - on the Monument Who Decides War X Barriers NY collection you'll find colourful stained glass-inspired patches depicting distinguished black activists such as Martin Luther King Jr. and Malcolm X. Balmain embellished with numerous rubs and a "vintage" effect will remind you of how this effect was achieved by rubbing new jeans with a pumice stone for hours... A denim jacket lined with fur and fabric elements like this one from Dsquared2 was a must-have item in every man's wardrobe, remember?
More formality
If the garden party is to be held in a more formal atmosphere, opt for sporty elegance. Casual is always the right choice when you need to make a good impression without overdoing it. Oversized suits and loose-fitting blazers for example are perfect for this look.
The black single-breasted wool oversize blazer by VETEMENTS will satisfy any minimalist. The navy blue Golden Goose jacket features a double-breasted button fastening with an engraved logo and showcasing the logo on the sleeve. A single row of Corozo buttons can be seen on the Bacio Jacquemus blazer in bright green, which can be matched with trousers to create a suit.
Ready for anything
The vagaries of the weather can spoil even the best outdoor parties, but there's no need to let it terrorise you. Remember, every storm has to pass and after most of them you can continue the party. What better way to get out of the house with an Alexander McQueen umbrella with a skull-shaped handle? Top it off with Excavator rubber wellingtons with a scrunched up nose from Balenciaga and a Balmain rain hat and no caprices of the weather will frighten you.
