Clever quilting
“Shirts, roll-necks, gilets and any top with a longer body or longer sleeves can lend themselves to layering, so you can pull them out from underneath another layer. Consider it a case of ‘peel and reveal’,” says Lauren.
Layered jackets, as seen at Balenciaga, Sacai, Marni and Prada, are a key trend to try, according to stylist Louise Carmel Hall. “Take one padded jacket or gilet and slip under a herringbone or houndstooth coat. Alternatively, try with a classic mac as seen at Burberry and Vetements,” she explains. “It’s a great way to get more mileage out of your winter wardrobe.”
Hug a hoodie
“When it comes to party season, I love to wear a sequin skirt with a denim-look shirt and then add the following layers: a cashmere hooded top and a lightweight mac, with the hood tucked out. Trainers or boots complete the look, depending where I’m headed,” says Vickie.
“Don’t forget to layer with accessories!” says Louise. “I love mixing my jewellery to recreate that Eighties revival trend. Hats, gloves and scarves are also essential layering items for winter and are easily added or taken away when you are running about town.”
