The look: dress up, dress down

Creating the perfect closet might sound like an elusive feat, but it can be done, and every discerning dresser knows that the secret is investing in beautifully crafted pieces that are timely yet timeless and, crucially, can be worn myriad ways. Enter New York-based label Proenza Schouler’s louche suiting. Worn together or separately, the elegantly draped blazer and effortless tapered pants promise maximum style mileage. Heading for drinks with your girlfriends? Pair this chic suit with a black vest courtesy of cool-girl label Nili Lotan and kitten-heel boots for an insouciant but luxe look, finishing with a generous spritz of Maison Francis Kurkdjian’s heady fragrance. Enjoying a low-key weekend with family? Swap the blazer for Chloé’s cozy blanket coat. Add an edge to your outfit in the form of Dr. Martens’ classic lace-up boots and be sure to tuck your pant legs in – this season’s instant-cool styling trick.
