The Checklist: Working Wardrobe
Whether you’re heading into the office, working from home, or simply embodying a back-to-school attitude via your wardrobe, it’s as the saying goes: “September is the January of fashion”. Hence we decided to put together an essential checklist of the four pieces that will see you into Q4 with a business-ready mindset.
1. Crisp Tailoring
Discover clean-cut blazers and effortlessly modern ensembles to dress up or down, depending on your workspace and mood. If you’re more about the “soft power” school of thought, trade sharp silhouettes for relaxed tailoring.
2. The Classic Button-Down
Nothing looks smarter than a neatly pressed shirt, whether that’s tucked under a jacket or worn to elevate an easy jeans-and-smart-loafer look. White is a forever classic, but perhaps you’re feeling experimental, in which case a shirt dress silhouette, pastel tones or a print will take your workwear in a more novel direction.
3. Business Pumps
Pump up your workwear game with our essential edit of sleek footwear, styles that look as good seated at a computer as they do at cocktail hour. Kitten heels are this season’s favourite, with all-white Khaite or runway-ready Prada on hand to help you step into your office in style.
4. A Timeless Tote
Bag yourself one of the season’s best holders, capacious enough for all your essentials (smaller for keys and wallet minimalists, larger if you’re an everything-but-the-kitchen sink kind of person), and stylish enough to wear on the daily to the office, to a meeting or anywhere else you might be headed. Try something sleek and boxy for everlasting appeal (Saint Laurent, JW Anderson and Jil Sander have you covered), or perhaps splurge on a bright colour from GANNI or Petit Kouraj for a lighthearted look.
