Does your wardrobe work as hard as you do? Make this season’s new, serve you with iconic staples that make a big style statement. Every piece in this collection is an overachiever… we’d find their success annoying, but we’re too busy reaping the benefits!
The Villanelle Coat
Do you even need an outfit when your coat looks this good?!
Whatever you wear (or don’t) underneath, this luxe layer will ice the cake. The chic robe style is double-breasted with luxe gold buttons and has a cinching belt - it makes us want to go outside.
Pull up the lush fur collar *dark glasses optional* and get down to some serious espionage.
The Carey Overshirt
This iconic overshirt says, yes I do have a ranch and YES you can come for the weekend. It’s not your first rodeo so make damn sure they know it with this hero layer. Strokably soft brushed cotton, it comes in oversized dogtooth, AKA the print of the season. It’s warm enough to double as a light jacket and has pockets deep enough to hold your secrets.
The Diana Blazer
We’re putting it out there, this icon is not just a blazer… she’s a trailblazer. Working SO hard for you, think of her as your personal assistant, she’s got your meetings, drinks and weekends sorted. Labelled boyfriend fit, don’t be fooled by the relaxed silhouette… this attitude is all female boss. Cool in camel, it’s the new neutral getting us in gear.
The Uma Trousers
Who wears the pants? You do baby! These iconic PU trousers were made for power walking, or casually strolling, whatever. We love them for so many reasons, the waist emphasising paper-bag fit, the luxe leather look, the chic tapered leg - it’s a yes, yes, yes from us.
So smooth, rocking up in these is the equivalent of pulling up in a 70s edition Cadillac.
The Norma Straight Jean
There’s a new denim icon in town… move over skinny (we still love you) the Straight is having a big moment. Why the wardrobe promotion? Because Straight keeps its cool at all times and is totally authentic (or looks it, there’s still a little stretch). What about change management? Yes! From brunch to cinema date or BNO, there’s literally no situation the straight-leg can’t handle.
The Rosa Blouse
We went to the prairie and all we got was this blouse. Just kidding, the romantic Rosa is a true island original. Light with floaty frill sleeves, this top says ‘I’m breezy’ and she really is. The scattered floral print and prim neckline give it an “oh this? It’s vintage” look that we are completely in love with. A trophy piece that needs little styling, we’d wear it for brunch, daytripping or mucking out the barn?
The Sienna Dress
Oh you’re into looking ridiculously stylish whilst making zero effort? Same! That’s why we’re obsessed with the nonchalant Sienna dress. Yes, there are many ways to style her, but if all you can muster is a top knot, mascara and flats… this ‘chuck on and stun’ dress is totally with you. From the flattering wrap shape to the long semi-sheer sleeves and tiered frill hem… she’s literally doing all the work.
RI would… make like a rodeo queen in a wide brim hat and boots and go wrangling for compliments.
The Christie Top
The bigger the shoulder, the bigger the impact. Like all boss babes, Christie knows how to deliver a point - have structure, keep it bright and be bold! We thought about raiding Tess McGill’s 1989 wardrobe, but why bother when we have this power top?! Boasting this season’s accentuated shoulders and a wide cinching waist-belt, it’s dressing us for success - in the boardroom or the bar
The Valentina Puffer
Heading to outer space, or the local shop… complete your mission in heroic style. We’re not saying Valentina (the first woman to land on the moon) wore this, but we think she’d love it as much as we do!
The quilted puffer comes in statement gold, has a cinching hardware waist-belt and a seriously luxurious fur-lined hood. We’re ready to launch into autumn/winter, wbu?
The Galore Blouse
Take control and be the protagonist of your own story – it all starts with a pussybow blouse that packs a punch. Silky with puff sleeves, the Galore embraces the feminine but loves edgy and unexpected styling. No pencil skirts here. Just because you’re wearing pink doesn’t mean you’re not a badass babe who knows exactly what she wants. Who needs a hero when you are one?
