Bottega Veneta AW16 Workwear: Shop The Look Now
The Bottega Veneta AW16 show showed us timeless sophistication with a modern, relaxed edge. If you’re looking to rebuild your office wardrobe, there are plenty of tips that can be taken from the show to elevate your daily workwear. From key pieces to styling tricks, here’s our breakdown of the inspiration you should be taking from the runway to the office.
The Slouchy Suit
A boyish, looser-fitting suit still looks smart but is much more modern (and bonus points for being so comfortable)
Blazer, £85, Topshop
The Short Sleeved Sweater
Layer a short-sleeved sweater over a long-sleeved shirt with an oversized collar and rolled up sleeves.
Sweater, £130, Polo Ralph Lauren
The Skinny Scarf
A skinny scarf can instantly update any outfit. Like in the Bottega Veneta show, wear with a suit but swap your shirt for a camisole.
Scarf, £8, River Island
The Checked Skirt
A checked pencil skirt may seem a little bit ‘grandma’ but wear with chunky flat loafers and a roll-neck cashmere jumper for a sleeker look.
Skirt, £125, Weekend MaxMara at Matches
The Velvet
Layer this velvet top over a shirt or roll neck and wear with cigarette pants.
Top, £12,99, H&M
The Trench Coat
A trench coat is a classic wardrobe staple that never goes out of date and is the perfect coat to wear to work.
Coat, £180, French Connection
The Pointed Flat
Work footwear doesn’t have to have a heel. Pointed flats are super chic, and these lace-up ones from Aldo will look great with a cropped trouser.
Shoes, £55, Aldo
