Preppy Polish

Straight-leg jeans are a style staple – and rightly so. Magically leg-lengthening, they flatter every age and figure. Add a Breton top, baseball boots and a beanie, and you have the four corners of the polished weekend wardrobe.

The kaftan has become fashion’s sunshine go-to, and now, with denim dresses filling the spring collections, it’s no surprise to find the two trends combined in one perfectly pared-back piece. Classic accessories nail the chic-simple sensibility.

Street Styling

Wide jeans are the current cool-girl cut, from flares and baggies to tapered styles like this flattering pair. The mood is Y2K casual, with retro additions – the cropped puffer, the ‘dad’ trainer – completing the vintage vibe.

New Noughties

Y2K is the retro reference for cutting-edge denim designs – think stone-washed finishes, boxy jackets and low-rise jeans with distressed details. Statement denim demands centre stage, so a plain white tee and black boots are all the additions you need.
