Everything but the dress

Dresses not for you? We get it and we also get how hard it is to find good alternative options. It’s 2022, you shouldn’t have to hunt high and low for a formal outfit that makes you feel amazing and doesn’t conform to society’s outdated standards. We’re big believers in wearing what makes YOU feel good whether that’s a three piece suit, a cute co-ord or tailored trousers. So forget about dresses and feast your eyes on everything else we’ve pulled out for you.

We challenge you to find a cooler piece than an oversized blazer. At the races, weddings or big 3-0 parties, if we saw someone wearing this we’d introduce ourselves asap. Effortlessly cool, the oversized blazer sets a self-assured mood from the start. If social anxiety is an issue for you, start with an outfit that makes you feel confident as soon as you put it on. They’re not called ‘power shoulders’ for nothing. Shine bright in fluro shades or let the cut do the talking by keeping it minimal with monochrome.


Shop Blazers

Sorry dresses, but these trousers have stolen our hearts. Tailoring suits every occasion whether you go all out in a fitted two piece or down the smart casual route with tailored trousers and a casual crop top. Rise to the occasion and add a pair of heels to set the ultimate androgynous mood. You’re spoilt for choice when it comes to styles too. Make it a flared affair, keep things cropped, take hems wide, crush on velvet or spin the colour wheel, the choice is yours to make.


Shop Trousers

If you want to give your legs some air time but dresses aren’t your thing, keep things short and sweet with a co-ord. If you’re still feeling clueless this check skirt and blazer is totally Cher Horowitz approved. Dress it up with barely there heels or down with thigh high boots and a t-shirt underneath. The best bit? Wear the skirt and blazer separately to make this winning combination work harder. Three looks in one? Don’t mind if we do.


Shop Matching Sets

The 00s called, they want their going out tops back. If you’d have told us that Lizzie McGuire would still be reigning style supreme in 2022 back in 2004 we’d have laughed in your face but stranger things have happened. Whether you play it safe in jeans and a nice top or amp things up with a micro mini, going out tops are plan-saving pieces. From peek-a-boo tops to slinky halterneck styles, make last-minute meltdowns a thing of the past.
