Maybe it’s the cold weather creeping through the office door, or perhaps it’s just the way that designers have recently been returning to heritage pieces with a contemporary eye, but the traditional bouclé jacket and skirt combination is something we can’t get enough of right now.
Smart and sophisticated, the bouclé ensemble will always be a trans-seasonal staple for us ladies wanting a look that transcends trends without being dull. But remember – Coco Chanel herself was never one to avoid sartorial experimentation, so try going for bouclé pieces with contemporary detailing. From Moschino Cheap & Chic’s bright pink tiered pocket dress to Iro’s studded cropped jacket, the bouclé has been reinvented as of late.
And it’s not just about the jacket itself; put your bouclé pieces to work at the weekend by pairing them with leather shorts and opaque tights for a sexy yet sophisticated look. As Coco herself said: “In order to be irreplaceable, one must always be different.”
Wrap up. Make a statement. Be beautiful in bouclé.
