Most Wanted
A curated roundup of the best new fashion arrivals, hand-picked by our editors
Bold, paintbox brights swept the SS24 runways, so if you’ve been looking to inject a bit of color into your wardrobe, now is the perfect time. Proving just how effortless it can be is Jacquemus, whose chic ‘Titolo’ blazer comes in a forest-green shade lifted straight from a Joan Miró painting (a key inspiration for the brand’s Les Sculptures collection and one of the artists whose work formed the backdrop for the show, which was held at Fondation Maeght in Saint-Paul de Vence, France). The verdant hue works with everything from monochrome to vibrant prints, so in the spirit of this year’s Met Gala ‘Garden of Time’ theme, why not try yours over a floral dress? Something clean and sculptural will keep the look fresh.
As for the fit, the loose, menswear-inflected shape makes light work of layering: “I throw blazers over everything, from denim to dresses, and would team this one with a pair of wide-leg jeans, retro sneakers, and finish with a ’90s shoulder bag,” says NET-A-PORTER shopping assistant Connie Parkinson. Adding a pair of sunglasses, such as Saint Laurent’s ‘Amelia’ aviators, will add instant cool points, too.
To maximize the blazer’s crisp, tailored lines, underpin yours with Carven’s boxy logo-print T-shirt (a NET-A-PORTER exclusive) from Louise Trotter’s debut collection, which was styled with two key looks on the runway and is the ultimate staple this season, and Salon 1884’s ‘Cecily’ pants. Part of our NET SUSTAIN edit of mindfully crafted fashion, they’re made in the brand’s native New York, with fine pleats at the waist to create a touch more volume, echoing the shapes synonymous with ’80s New Romantics, but in a sleeker, more modern way. Balance the proportions with Dries Van Noten’s curved-heel sandals and add Loewe Paula’s Ibiza’s foldable striped raffia tote for days spent dashing between meetings and networking events. For evening, choose Gabriela Hearst’s buttery suede ‘Soft Demi’ clutch, which is also exclusive to NET-A-PORTER.
Lastly, you’ll need a few pieces of jewelry to tie the look together. Since silver is having such a moment right now, we think Ysso’s artfully twisted ‘Cordella’ ring, handcrafted near Athens, and Anissa Kermiche’s silver-plated ‘Charmeur Rope’ swirl pendant make the perfect finishing touches.
