Autumn/Winter Essential – Women’s Blouses

For an easy way to update your look for autumn/winter, consider the blouse the one piece you need for day to night style.

AW11’s women’s blouses come in a number of styles to fit with the season’s key trends – from ladylike chic in a pussybow blouse to a more androgynous look in a button up blouse – they’ve taken on a new lease of life and are set to become a major player in your AW wardrobe.

As seen on the runways at Gucci, pussybow styles are key this season. Go for bright primary colours and jewel tones to inject some colour into your ladylike look.

If, on the other hand, you’re channelling the boyish look seen at shows from Yves Saint Laurent, Dolce and Gabbana and Chanel, stick to a monochrome palette. Muted shades of black, white and cream look sleek and sophisticated with tie front blouses a must-have style to work the look.

Celebrity inspiration comes from the likes of Pixie Lott, Alexa Chung and Fearne Cotton. All three often wear blouses to different effect both day and night, putting their own unique spin on the trend and showing their versatility.

Their versatility is a big part of blouses appeal – pick a simple style and it will take you from office to bar with just a switch of accessories.
