THE DETAILS

Choose the fabric wisely

Material is everything. Choose a heavy knit for a flattering fit and a lighter fabric for the warmer months ahead

Be bold with what you wear it with

Stripes are a neutral – they can be paired with other prints and patterns, colours and combinations

Decide whether to hang loose

Your stripes can be tucked, tied, belted or left to hang loose – there’s no wrong way to wear them

Perfect for summer

Don’t be afraid to dress up your stripes with a skirt, or wear as an accent layer under a dress

Keep it simple

If in doubt, wear a striped top with solid-colour bottoms
