WOMENS | THE ART OF LAYERING

With the colder season in full bloom, mastering the art of layering is a must. this styling technique effortlessly elevates  your look while also being extremely practical in winter. layering is one of the most conventional ways to make the most out of your wardrobe this season. Wondering how to nail the look? Here are some key tips to consider:

Base layers in winter are an essential. Start off with the thinnest layer; such as shirts and long sleeve tops, then build in fabric weight with knits, sweaters, shackets and finish off with blazers, puffer jackets or coats. Don’t forget to consider the colours, textures and patterns of your layers in complimentary or deliberately clashing contrast to pull the whole look together!

Texture in your layering is key, especially if you’re going for a tonal one colour look, with each fabric adding depth or contrast. mix both heavy and soft textures with our range of low environmental impact styles; such as the orla cotton cashmere crew with drop shoulder cocoon coat and finish off with the alyse cord pant. Take it to the next level by topping off with the sofia cable knit around your shoulders for an extra layer.

Tone-on-tone dressing is a perennially chic option. the mix of ivory and brown tones creates a stylish yet down to earth impression, making it the perfect choice colour duo for knits and coats. Find your casual-cool ensemble this season with the hazel tapered slouch jean in ecru & layer with brown or beige coloured knits, sweaters, shackets, coats and cardigans. don’t forget to layer your pieces from lightest to heaviest and be brave by getting creative with pattern and texture.

Super-soft and cosy loungewear is the ultimate off-duty   essential this season. It is completely natural to gravitate towards an oversized sweat set to enjoy optimal comfort. but it doesn’t have to end there, elevate your loungewear game by pairing your favourite sweatpants or ours with the sofia knit tank and finish off with the sofia knit cardigan for an on-trend layered appeal. add the leah denim jacket to create a layering masterpiece.

Prints and patterns add some dimension to your winter wardrobe - style the lottie shibori rib print dress to add some personality to your look. And then layer the look with our must-have mika puffer jacket in terracotta. To create a more cohesive style when styling your favourite printed garments, work in the base colour of the pattern with any items you’re layering over. This leaves the main statement piece as the hero, perfectly complemented back with the layered items.
