Sorry White T-Shirts, This is the Only Top I’m Wearing This Summer

For 2021 my aim is to be as self-disciplined as possible when it comes to trends. While I think designers should keep pushing towards a more timeless approach to design that prioritises longevity, it can be too easy to demonise the concept of trends as a whole. Ultimately, re-invention is what makes fashion so exciting, the key is to just focus on styles that remain true your personal style and that don’t run the risk of being worn once then discarded. With this lens in place, I’ve been passing my eye over the trends that are coming up for spring/summer 2021 and making a shortlist of styles that I feel will slip into my pre-existing wardrobe with ease. My first point of call? The waistcoat.
I would forgive you for experiencing unnerving ’90s and noughties flashbacks at the sight of a waistcoat, but this isn’t Sienna Miller and Kate Moss tassel-clad bohemianism, rather I’m viewing this tailored piece as a more interesting alternative to my trusty white tee this summer. I primarily plan on wearing it with wide leg jeans and loafers in spring, then with the odd cheeky tailored short come summer. If I’m feeling particularly fancy, and I have a smart-casual event to attend, (remember those?) I might go all-out with a pair of matching tailored trousers.
There aren’t many of waistcoats to be found on the high street, and the majority are stocked at minimalist haven Arket (of course), however if you’re on a budget I would also recommend looking at vintage options—I’ve included a few in my edit below. Another top tip is to check out the men’s department at high street brands, where you’re far more likely to find beautifully tailored styles at reasonable price points. You might just need to experiment a little with sizing.
Of course, if your budget is a little more generous then you’ll find countless options on Net-a-Porter and Matches. Frankie Shop’s beige waistcoat has been popular amongst the fashion crowd, but I have also been coveting Bouguessa’s cream-coloured piece, which would feel very ’90s Gwyneth Paltrow with jeans and chunky sandals.

If you fancy a more slouchy iteration, take your cues from Sylvie Mus who opts for a long-line, deep-V style.

Add a matching blazer and tailored trousers to create a statement-making suit-like finish. Oh-so dapper.
