There’s nothing quite like the inexplicable satisfaction of a really good outfit. Sometimes it can be hard to put your finger on what it is exactly that makes something work: It could be a clever colour combination, an unexpected silhouette, or even a subtle trim on a pair of trousers. As a fashion editor, it is my job to keep an eye out for these winning ensembles. It’s a tough job, but someone’s gotta do it. We even have a channel on Slack that is literally dedicated to great outfits, and boy, are there plenty to choose from.
This story is essentially a line-up of all the fabulous outfits that have been given the Slack-channel seal of approval. I find that the looks that stand out to me are often relatively simple in composition but pack a punch via colour, print or fabric. Tonal dressing is the perfect example of this, and many of my chosen outfits go with the colour-match approach, be it mint green or zesty orange. It’s so simple yet so effective.
I’ll be updating this story over the course of the year with new outfits that catch my eye, so be sure to watch this space! In the meantime, scroll on down to see the looks that have set my heart racing this month, and shop similar pieces. Happy scrolling.
