The Trend Taking You From The Office To A Picnic In The Park: Casual Tailoring

Published

Despite a year of Zoom tops and comfy bottoms, tailored pieces have reigned supreme in many SS21 collections with leading brands such as Chloé, The Row and Louis Vuitton. The one thing that sets these tailored pieces apart from others is that their fit isn’t as rigid as you would expect, instead, they’re looser and more casual – the perfect mix between comfy and corporate.

Of course, the relaxed tailoring trend isn’t just for our return to the office. Causal tailoring speaks to the blending of styles we have consistently seen over recent years, proving that the rules around clothing are getting just as loose as our trousers. These pieces will quickly and easily become a statement piece in your wardrobe due to their versatility – whether you’re heading for a picnic in the park or an evening event, slouchy tailoring always looks cool.

For summer, casual tailoring comes in light cotton and linen iterations that feel breezy cool whilst looking elevated and classy. If you’re feeling daring, opt for a full linen suit for summer afternoons, or perhaps lean into the trend with a pair of wide-leg or cigarette trousers in a statement colour. Let the tailoring do all the lifting for you by simply pairing your tailored separates with a white tee and trainers for the casually cool “I just threw this on” look. Alternatively, opt for heeled sandals and a matching linen shirt for the ultimate summer look. Oh and don’t forget your sunnies!
