It’s also an opportunity to lean into colour if that’s your preference, so play around with shades to suit your style and personality.
Style secret: To avoid checks looking too conservative or dated, choose modern blazer cuts such as an over-sized, boxy shape. When it comes to layering, take advantage of the textured nature of the print to integrate a variety of fabrics.

Keep it colourful
In a breakaway from conservative suiting, colour has made an in incredible impact in this otherwise corporate-dressing arena over the past few seasons.
And given it’s popularity across a range of age groups, coupled with it’s ability to flatter a variety of body shapes, coloured suiting is a trend that we see continuing into the foreseeable future.
Style secret: Confidence is key when it comes to pulling off this top-to-toe combination, so start by choosing a shade that suits and flatters. From there, play around with monochromatic pairings, such as a black evening top for after five dressing, or a crisp white shirt or t-shirt to dress things down by day. If you’re one to really embrace colour, then inject a contrasting shade to create a bold colour-blocking effect.
And remember, the obvious advantage of a two-piece combination is the ability to create a variety of wardrobe options. So break up the two pieces and mix and match with your best basics to instantly update your style.

Success in a dress
What’s not to love about this hybrid fashion piece – it combines the tailored elegance of a classic blazer with the chic allure of a dress.
And while Eva opts for the celebrity shock value of exceptionally short, there are plenty of styles on the market that offer a little more coverage.
Style secret: Look for soft-tailored styles that are a bit more fluid, so you get the structured jacket effect with the softness of a dress or skirt. Belted styles, or swapping out ties for a leather waist belt, offer additional detailing that help nip in waistlines and create shape. Layer over turtlenecks and tights and wear with knee length boots to take the look well into the winter months.
