On The Runway
Max Mara has always done ‘modern utility’ well and this season, brands like Alberta Ferretti, Tod’s and Saint Laurent went all in too with relaxed boiler suits, structured jackets and cargo trousers, while final touches like structured belts, aviator sunglasses and pocket details pulled everything together. For a more feminine approach, look for softer fabrics like linen and lightweight cotton – as seen at Victoria Beckham.
How To Wear It Now
Neutrals are the cornerstone of this trend, so it’s an easy one to get on board with. The key is to balance the look with wearable basics – think oversized cargos with a grey sweatshirt, a belted utility jacket with 90s-style jeans and a cargo skirt with a basic white tank. If you want to go head-to-toe, look for a cool boilersuit – just remember to go for a loose silhouette and team it with feminine accessories like pointed flats and chic sunglasses.
