Who What Wear

April 03, 2022 at 07:02AM The relationship between a fashion person and their dress collection is one that shouldn’t be underestimated. Name an occasion, life event or even just a previous dinner plan and no doubt they’ll be able to tell you what they were wearing—and it’s usually always a dress that’s most memorable. There’s not a date in the diary that a dress can’t be worn, and this is why they deserve recognition. For spring, they’re basically an essential, and there are so many new dress brands we’re excited to wear. When it comes to the best designer dresses, though, we always know where to head to for certain styles. You can rely on the likes Christopher Esper, Jacquemus and Johanna Ortiz to tick off the cut-out trend, Aje and Faithfull The Brand to cover puff sleeves and Victoria Beckham, Zimmermann and Co. to fulfil dopamine…

April 03, 2022 at 06:10AM Pedis at the ready, people—sandal season is knocking on our wardrobe doors, and, my, are we ready to embrace it. After months of hiding our feet underneath layers of woolly socks and leather boots, it's almost warm enough to let them breathe again in a pair of flesh-exposing sandals. This is serendipitous timing, seeing as the season’s hottest pairs have just begun to land. Influencers, who always tend to be a few weeks ahead of the rest of us in terms of their wardrobes shifts—the ‘gram waits for no content creator, after all—have already started wearing their sandals on the regular. In doing so, they’ve effectively highlighted the most covetable pairs. It’s my job to filter out the best bits in fashion for you, so I took it upon myself to whittle down the top sandal trends for 2022, seeking out the very best…

April 03, 2022 at 06:05AM If you live near a Zara store, consider yourself lucky. The closest brick-and-mortar location to where I live is hours away. On the plus side, I’m not a fan of trying things on in dressing rooms. I’d much rather do that in the comfort of my own home. Speaking of, I’ve been dying to try some pieces from Zara’s spring collection after seeing how luxe they look, so I did. Below are my reviews and IRL photos of seven trend-forward and expensive-looking items (or sets) as well as two pairs of shoes that I doubt will stay in stock for long. Get my candid thoughts, and shop them all below.My review: This skirt suit hits on many trends (cobalt, miniskirts, suiting) but not in a way that makes it look like you’re trying too hard. The fabric doesn’t wrinkle, which is a big plus for me,…

April 03, 2022 at 06:00AM Emma wears a Rixo dress and Hayley Menzies cardigan.As an editor at Who What Wear, I typically spend a lot of time looking at new-in products, so every week, I update this story with the pieces that have caught my eye and that really stand out.I have only just started going back into an office and attending IRL meetings again and so am currently looking for more spring staples to add to my wardrobe, along with wedding guest outfits. This week, I’ve selected a beautiful summer dress from All Saints, an amazing printed shirt from Whistles and the dream Jimmy Choo sandals.So whether you’re looking to buy, browse or discover something new, keep scrolling for pieces from the high street and designer labels that I love and think are worth investing in.This comes with a matching slip skirt, too.I tried these…

April 03, 2022 at 06:00AM I know it’s hard to keep up with the constantly revolving door of nail trends lately, but let’s just take a step back and appreciate the simpler things in life like, oh I don’t know, a few nail colours for spring, maybe? I’ve gathered an impressive roster of hues that seem to be popping up everywhere these days. I won’t lie, though—I had a little help from celebrity manicurist Elle Gerstein. She dished on all the shades she’s using this season and what designs she’s loving lately.“Designs I’m loving right now are impressions and pops of bold pastel,” she says. “They’re great for brushstroke techniques and abstract art—both are going to be very big. The colours are muted but when combined correctly can make an impactful contrast. They also look great with a metal accent, which is another huge…

April 02, 2022 at 08:00AM The sun is shining (at least, it is while I type this), and temperatures have reached double figures. At the risk of jinxing the weather, let’s talk about spring outfits. I’ve been in spring mode for a while, but with the weather finally taking a turn, now seems like the perfect time to really start breaking down outfit trends we can expect from 2022. With the burden of layers almost behind us, I’m turning my attention to the pieces that’ll help make my existing wardrobe feel more current and on-point for spring. By now, I expect you’ve already brushed up on your fashion knowledge by consulting our seasonal trend report. (If you haven’t, take a moment to get up to speed—I’ll wait.) Now, while the runway trends are undoubtedly important and will set the tone for the next…

April 02, 2022 at 08:00AM I have to confess. I had planned to write this story about new styling ideas for 2022 from the spring/summer collections. After completing my research for the piece, I looked through my saved images and noticed that seven out of eight of the styling ideas that had stood out to me all involved a pair of trousers. So here we are. This is now a story about how to wear trousers in 2022 because they’re clearly all I am paying attention to right now.Our most-read stories of the month are pretty much all about wide-leg trousers, so I’m not alone in my trouser obsession. It seems like we’re all ready to get out of the leggings and comfortable trousers and return to more tailored styles. Designers such as Peter Do, Proenza Schouler and Victoria Beckham showed us how to incorporate tailored trousers…

April 02, 2022 at 08:00AM Six years ago, my family experienced a huge scare when my then 65-year-old mom was rushed to the ER in order to receive an emergency cardioversion—aka a medical paddle used to restart her heart. The day before the trip to the emergency room, we’d been travelling, and my mom (who has since discovered she has an extreme sensitivity to sugar) had a pumpkin spice latte and an almond-filled French pastry for breakfast and then later on after dinner a small vanilla ice cream cone. As she explains, it was enough sugar (at least for her) to send her heart into atrial fibrillation, or an uneven heart rhythm.“As scary as the experience was, it turned out to be a blessing in disguise,” she tells me. “I banished heavy sugar doses from my diet and noticed that my skin started…

April 02, 2022 at 08:00AM You know we’re big supporters of a top-to-toe tonal look. It’s a sure fire way to look put-together, whether you’re sporting a chic co-ord or different shades of cream and white, for example. But that doesn’t mean you can’t look equally as premium in an array of colours. In fact, because it’s often more difficult to put together and pull off colour, if you get it right the results can be even more impressive. The hard part is knowing which colours work together and which ones, well, don’t. Unfortunately, the rules don’t always make sense which makes figuring out the right colour pairings even harder. Just think about that traditional adage ‘pink and green should never be seen’, and we all know that’s not true. Usually there’s just ‘something’ about it that works when you put on a winning colour…

In doing so, my allergies have improved, I feel…
