LESS IS MORE: WORKWEAR EDITION
“DRESS SHABBILY AND THEY REMEMBER THE DRESS; DRESS IMPECCABLY AND THEY NOTICE THE WOMAN."
- Coco Chanel
Conversations around sustainability are quite in trend right now and so is the underrated effort to dress for a zoom meeting every single day! The constant struggle to come up with a fresh fashionable look for online/ offline meetings while still being sustainable is real and to cater to that, here is a Project 333 workwear edition. An sustainable clothing initiative!
Project 333 is a minimalist fashion challenge by Courtney Carver which invites one to dress in only 33 items for 3 months. It includes clothing articles, jewelry, accessories, etc. It created quite a buzz in the fashion market as ethical fashion is the need of the hour and so are professional items in one’s wardrobe which not only say business, but also serve as timeless classic pieces.
WHITE SHIRT: A CLASSIC
Whether yours is made from crisp cotton or soft silk, the tailored shape of a button-down makes any outfit feel instantly elegant. Pair it with a pleated skirt or a striped linen trouser, or be experimental enough to rock it with a printed blazer, one can never go wrong with a white shirt!
POWER SUIT: BOLD AND BEAUTIFUL
May it be a board meeting or a ‘not-so-serious’ zoom meeting, there’s no right time to make a fashionable statement. An investment in a colorful pantsuit is a must. Wear the trousers and blazer as separates or a combo, they are the perfect capsule wardrobe additions.
WAISTCOATS: ANDROGYNOUS ENOUGH?
Powerful and trendy, waistcoats have made their mark in work wear and are considered to be a must have. Pair them up with dress pants, a button-down and a tie and you are ready to rock your Annie Hall look!
ACCESSORIES: A STATEMENT.
Black pumps? A must have. A classy buckle belt? A need. A neutral briefcase and a colorful tote. A smart move. A pair of sleek glasses and bold eyewear? Try it, won’t regret. Or a tote that can take you from 9AM to 9PM in a stunning color, can add a layer of style to your casual work outfit!.
Long gone are the days where one had to stick to a simple black or grey option for work wear. Now is when one can rock the modern and elegant look of Megan Markle or color-match accessories like the Duchess of Cambridge or feel as confident as Priyanka Chopra in her colorful statement pieces. Limited items doesn’t mean limited fashion. It actually means more creativity within the limitations.
