3.1

Jacket - 3.1 Phillip Lim 

Shorts - Paul & Joe 

Heels - Zara 

Watch - Michael Kors 

Phillip Lim has always been one of my favourite designers. Following the launch of his 3.1 collection in 2005, Lim successfully redefined the meaning of wardrobe basics.

Having famously told Vogue that the aim of the collection was to bring back "the flounce and volume" of clothing in an interview - this tailored jacket is no exception. 

What should feel like a masculine statement piece feels like one of the most feminine I have come across. Paired with some plain shorts and a white chiffon vest, the jacket adds a sharpness which could only be achievable by a classic piece from his 3.1 collection. 

Shorts and Jacket both from The Designer Studio pop up store at Cheshire Oaks.
