Suits you, girls!

One trend which never seems to go out of fashion is the masculine look for women’s clothing and fashion. Whether it’s blazers, shirts with dickie bows, shorts, blouses or edgy tailoring, it seems it’s definitely here to stay.

Storming the runways at London Fashion Week were suits in pastel shades, mixed tailoring with skyscraper heels, and oversize androgynous trousers with metallic brogues.

From Coco Chanel’s time through Jean-Paul Gaultier to Giorgio Armani and Stella McCartney, fashion designers and couturiers love this look. And we love it on the high street too, as it’s easy to wear and takes us comfortably from office to evening.

Key to this summer’s look have been designer trainers and flats of every type, with man-size watches and chunky chains, as well as metallics and brights stealing the show. Autumn/winter sees the welcome return of cosy woollens, boiled wool, hats, scarves and gloves to finish off this trend, but in muted heathers, berry shades and naturals. Clutches, small angular handbags and totes are aplenty too.

Faux fur, fluffy jumpers and coats, and the constant delight of leather are also on the agenda. But it’s the masculine look which we’re replicating at the moment at Get Waisted to the delight of our clients, cinched in with glorious belts to showcase a feminine shape. We’re not talking the harsh padded shoulders and shapeless trends of the 80s (think Annie Lennox) but a sophisticated take for the season.
