How to Dress for the Return to the Office

Your back to office workwear wardrobe essentials …

Heading back to work from next week but struggling with what to wear to the office? From September 20, office workers will begin to return to their respective HQs. In a hybrid work era expect to see hybrid workwear: the parameters of office attire have changed. Invest in a few forever pieces and with some small tweaks and changes, you can make your nine-to-five repertoire a little bit more comfortable. Prioritise a great jacket, comfortable wide-leg trousers or leggings (yes leggings, check out Wolford’s Perfect Fit legging) paired with knit sweaters, comfortable tops and a matching blazer. Wear tailoring together or apart. Choose a comfortable pair of loafers and stash heels under your desk. Workwear specialist The Fold is launching (on October 2) a standout jacket within its new autumn collection: the Kingston sculpted blazer made from Italian premium wool and created in collaboration with leading female tailor Jennie Adamson. With 13 years of formal Savile Row experience, Adamson has used her expertise to design the architectural structure of this jacket, creating a power piece in the process. “I think people’s attitudes are changing with regard to how they shop, with many choosing to spend money on investment pieces that are going to last for years and years rather than fast fashion,” Adamson told us. With many women now splitting their time between the office and home, every piece must be versatile and work for a multitude of occasions, including social events, business meetings and dinner with friends; www.thefoldlondon.com. With that in mind, here’s our edit of great workwear available online now …
