How To Style White For Autumn

2. Don’t be afraid to play with colours and textures to create the perfect contrast! Think bold printed heels, a colour pop lip or a floral printed blouse with white culottes.

We love mixing chunky knitwear, waterfall trench coats, longline cardigans and dresses with contrasting panelling in lace, mesh and leather for a sophisticated touch.

Sheer fabrics are a great way to wear white during the evening, via lace tops and sheer blouses. Just add a matching bra or cami underneath.

As a general rule, when wearing all white choose streamlined silhouettes and structured shapes for a timeless and classic look. For the office, try a cropped blazer with a feminine white blouse and tailored pants with black court heels or wear white to your next formal event with a mini embellished shift dress and nude heels.

    White is such a gorgeous colour but I really worry about unsightly stains in hard to see places if I wear it.

    I gave up white the moment my eldest had his first vegemite sandwich. I hope to rediscover it in a decade or so.

    Glad to hear you are another fan of white @whatthe! I hope to not be so bogged down by black this winter!

      Yes white really seems to brighten my face when I wear it on my top half.

    Doubling up on white looks great!

    I love a clean white T – it goes so well with so many things and is so comfortable too.
