THE COOL COVER-UP: A FLANNEL SHIRT
It’s now less “teen spirit”, more high fashion.
We heart Kurt Cobain, but the soft plaid shirt that he popularised as a staple never quite shook off its grungy, teen spirit affiliations – until now. At Gucci, it’s trimmed with crystals and smartens up a bodysuitand-leggings get-up, while Chloe made it XL and threw it over demure minidresses to surprisingly elegant effect. In short, it’s the new answer to the throw-on-andgo parka – more effortless than the bomber, and lends instant editorial edge. – KYS
