The look: A transformational top

Contrary to popular belief, corsets are not inherently outré or ‘tricky’. When worn correctly, they actually complement and sculpt your body as opposed to putting it on display. Layered over a crisp white shirt, Brock Collection’s romantic reinterpretation, complete with a painterly floral print, makes for a brilliantly unusual way to transform one of your most basic pieces. Finish the outfit with Loewe’s trench coat, Simon Miller jeans and a liberal helping of ladylike accessories.
