The game changer: A color-clash blouse

Want to put a zing into your trans-seasonal wardrobe? Consider pastels your sartorial palette cleanser; nothing has the potential to refresh an on- or off-duty look quite like fresh sherbet separates. Take the look up a notch for SS18 with the color-clash blouse: this clever closet essential has the same outfit-elevating properties as traditional pastel shades, but the shock of colors will stop your look from teetering towards saccharine. Top of our wish list right now is Givenchy’s mint and red mashup; creative director Clare Waight Keller channeled the house’s love of a strong shoulder when she was designing this one, making it pretty and powerful in equal measure.
