Pure and simple

We love the simplicity of the huge floral pattern party visible in this bio-cotton number from Oiliy. The puffy sleeves have pleat-details on the shoulder and with the collar it forms an homage to traditional clothes from Dutch fishermen. Use it as a shirt seen here with jeans and a smart trench coat and heels or as a dress with a pair of cool boots.

Oiliy, ‘Dijon’ dress, €299
Oiliy, ‘Poitiers’ pants, €169

Strike a pose

With a nod to the ‘80s this Odessa shirt with a casual fit, revere collar and all over simplistic floral print is the perfect combination of vintage and modern. Style and comfort in perfect harmony. Wear the shirt tucked into your favourite pair of jeans with a retro-style belt and strike a pose.
