JUST LANDED: YOUR WEEKEND CAPSULE CLOSET

Classic separates and zero-effort all-in-ones in crisp white, clotted cream and every shade of blue are the off-duty staples your spring closet needs now

All in one

You’ve have heard of the concept of a workwear capsule closet, but have you considered a capsule collection for weekends? Just like its weekday equivalent, the key to off-duty success is a selection of forever-classic separates and fuss-free all-in-ones that are ready for every downtime eventuality. Take this printed midi dress, which looks just as good with a classic long-sleeved striped T-shirt and flatform brogues as it does with a leather biker jacket and heels. Similarly, a statement jumpsuit can be styled up or down depending where the weekend takes you.


Everyday heroes

Maximise the possibilities of your weekend closet by choosing pick-and-mix separates in a palette of blue, white and cream. This ruffle detail chambray blouse taps into the trend for pretty denim, while stripes are perennially chic, whether you go for a narrow-striped V-neck knitted sweater or a classic T-shirt. Expand your denim horizons with a wide-legged cropped indigo pair and a surprisingly versatile straight-leg pair in brilliant white. For a smarter option, we love these dark-blue ankle-grazing herringbone pants.


Over the top

Clever, lightweight layers are key components of a weekend capsule for spring. Denim jackets work for every season and get better with age. An oversized style in a washed-out shade can be thrown over everything else in your closet. Cashmere is perfect for chilly not-quite-spring days: this cream roll neck works great under dresses and over slim T-shirts. Our latest take on the classic trench coat (pictured) includes authentic details and a new shorter length. Not only that but it’s our most sustainable trench yet, made from recycled polyester and BCI cotton.
