10 Influencer-Approved Skirts That Might Make You Rethink Your Love of Dresses

While some may say summer is the season of the dress, I personally define myself as a skirt enthusiast. Endlessly versatile, skirts are an item that can be elevated enough for just about any occasion and also dressed down for more casual affairs. As an example, the checked slip skirt I wore to a wedding alongside a slinky silk cami last year is now the same skirt I wear to picnics on weekends alongside a plain white tee and Stan Smith sneakers.  To further prove my point that skirts are in fact, an unsung wardrobe hero, I’ve taken the liberty of tracking down a few summery iterations that come with influencer-approval. From buzzy brands like Ganni, Sir and Musier Paris to high-street favourites like H&M and ASOS, this season we’ve seen a plethora of chic skir...

Seamstresses From Dior and Chanel Launch Tissuni, a Network For Open-Source Design Patterns

Tissuni, which is a French portmanteau for “united fabric,” is a collective of seamstresses from elite fashion houses like Chanel, Dior, and Saint Laurent that is committed to reducing fashion’s waste problem. Founded in March by Chanel seamstress Marie Beatrice Boyer, the movement began by supplying over 3,000 free face masks to essential workers in France. Now, Tissuni is experimenting with open-source design patterns. Boyer was inspired to launch Tissuni in the early days of lockdown in response to global shortages of personal protective equipment (PPE). French hospitals were in desperate need of cloth face coverings in an attempt to preserve critically low supplies of surgical face masks. Since launching Tissuni, the collective has expanded to over 100 members from re...

6 Trending Arket Items That Come With The Influencer Tick Of Approval

20 Of The Best Summer Jackets for Cloudy Grey Days

Unfortunately, in the UK, summer does not necessarily equal great weather. And while we may love to sport our linen mini dresses and floral-laden midis, often we are also required to have an outfit backup plan.  I know jackets may not necessarily be the item on the top of your wish-list during the summer months, but let me tell you, for practicality purposes they could be the most important items you own. From blazers to trenches and tailored denim, there are several trans-seasonal jacket options around that are optimal for the grey summer days yet will also act as ideal outerwear through most of autumn.  With linen fabrics to other lightweight alternatives, seasonally-appropriate summer jackets are available in an array of different styles spanning casual and dres...

25 Epic Summer Buys That Are Still in Stock in the Net-a-Porter Sale

The Net-a-Porter summer sale is now in full swing, with many of pieces now reduced up to 70%. Trust us when we say there’s so much good stuff to sift through this year, but like any sale clicking through hundreds of pages of products can be a little overwhelming. This is where we come in. Plenty of cult buys have already been snapped up, but worry not, because there’s plenty of goodness left to unearth. The sales are always a chance to buy a little bit better than you would normally, so we recommend before you dive straight in thinking what is missing in your wardrobe, what would be really worth upgrading, and if you have any big events to forward plan for. For example, these sales are a great opportunity to buy wedding guest dresses for all the rescheduled ...

7 Perfect Outfits to Wear in 20-Degree Weather

What should you wear when it’s neither completely boiling nor on the freezing side? This question is important to answer this week for a couple of reasons. Firstly, we’re no longer housebound all the time. And secondly, my weather app tells me that the temperature is going to linger around the 20-degree mark all week. Granted, the app isn’t always the most reliable but the thing is it can be a difficult climate to dress for, which is why it’s important to work out what to wear. Do you take a jacket with you? Can you wear sandals? Is time for boots? Throw in the additional issue of it raining all week and you’ve got yourself a game of sweat or water.  As you can see, this gives us plenty of style questions to answer, which is why we decided to go hunt...

6 Trending H&M Items The Style Set Is Loving This Summer

There’s no denying that this summer H&M has created some real winners in the fashion department. From the puff sleeve pink dress, that’s been worn by Zeena, Karoline Dall and more, to the sheer wrap top that garnered the attention of Claire Wakeman and Katherine Omerod, the brand can certainly be credited for some of the most buzz-worthy products of the summer thus far. Though, those aren’t the only piece that the fashion set is loving. In fact, several stylish influencers have been seen wearing other lust-worthy, expensive-looking items from the high-street retailer this summer.  Ellie from Slip Into Style sported a ruched dress last week that looks far more expensive than its £35 price tag, while Eni Illori has worn the brand’s lilac m...

This Summer I’m Most Excited About Wearing This ’70s-Style Print

Vintage floral prints. To get better acquainted with what this means, all you need to know is that this pattern often falls under the following category: gaudy.  You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online.

16 Feel-Good Items on My Summer Wish List

Hello! It’s Elinor Block, Who What Wear’s assistant editor, sharing with you my picks for the month. As we’re easing out of lockdown, I’ve had time to think about the products—fashion, beauty and lifestyle—that have genuinely kept me going. I don’t have any real words of wisdom for how I kept (mostly) sane, but sticking to a routine has been invaluable. That includes getting properly dressed in the mornings in clothes I love and putting on makeup. It also includes wearing a smartwatch, which has helped me stay on top of my activity levels.
