How To Create A Modern Capsule Wardrobe
With a seismic shift in how we live in the last year, a change has also come in the way we get dressed. This shake-up to our wardrobes has been the most acute for those who transitioned from offices to working from home. We know that more than ever, we need clothes that will work hard for us and staples that will form an unshakeable capsule wardrobe, so we’ve rounded up the key pieces that you can rely on this season. From everlasting jeans to classic accessories, here are the styles to revolve your whole week around.
Signature denim
Denim has always been a default for capsule wardrobes, and our latest styles are cool and timeless. With stretch and non-stretch variations available, you can choose from our signature barrel legs, classic slim legs, and skinny silhouettes, or something more modern like our pleat leg jeans. And if you’re looking for adding versatility, invest in a few styles to rotate every season. We offer a range of washes and hues too, from classic indigo to fresh shades of white. Dressing for elevated moments? Our authentic flares are designed with a high-rise waistband and a full leg, with a slim fit for a hint of elegance. On balmy summer days, switch jeans for denim shorts in classic silhouettes, cut from organic denim.

The building blocks
What to wear on top? Avoid any sartorial stress by investing in a selection of staples that will go with everything, from jeans to printed midi skirts. It’s wise to have a choice of classic shapes in easy shades, as well as some statement pieces to bring the energy. From printed shirts and free-spirited knits to subtle blouses and minimal T-shirts, our edit offers something for everyone. To create an off-duty look that still feels pulled together, style T-shirts with your favourite denim, trainers, and a lightweight jacket this season. Elsewhere, our cotton-crafted sweatshirts, complete with sporty joggers, are as perfect for weekends spent at home as they are for a modest airport aesthetic – once traveling is back on the agenda, of course.

One-and-done dresses
Our dress edit always brings an array of elegant designs and more casual throw-on pieces – this season is no different. Opt for midi-length styles that are comfortable enough for days spent at home but look seriously chic when stepping out — and, best of all, they require minimal styling. This summer is also all about the slip dress, so give in to a sense of nostalgia with a selection that feels relevant for now, from subtle pastel shades to of-the-moment prints. After dark, slip-on barely-there sandals and chunky gold jewellery with any of our dresses for an alternative take on evening attire.

Forever coats
‘Investment piece’ is a phrase that gets bandied around a lot in relation to fashion, but our latest coats are truly deserving of the name. These ageless staples are, above all, practical––there’s no chicer way to protect yourself from the elements––but also promise to add instant elevation to every look.
Whether it’s easy neutral hues, rich autumnal shades or a classic jet black, these infinitely wearable coats can be layered over everything, from your favourite pair of jeans, oversized suiting and day-to-night dresses to add a feeling of purpose. This endless versatility gives our coats universal appeal, something that can be said of very few pieces of clothing.

Wear-everywhere boots
Nothing gets us enthusiastic about autumn-winter wardrobes quite like a pair of new boots. After all, sturdy soles will prove an everyday ally during colder climes, and thankfully, our latest selection has something for every mood – from elegant heels to combat flats, you’re guaranteed to find the sole for you. Highlights include our Amber Lace-Up Boots that continue to draw favour and our Dahlia Lace-Up Boots that lend themselves to after-dark plans and special occasions. Keep your eyes peeled for fresh takes on the military boot and reinvented sock styles later this season.
