If we had to distil down our wardrobes to just five items, a bold-striped shirt would be one of them. A neutral pattern that works with everything, stripes are an effortless way to add interest to the simplest looks without overwhelming them. Here, we style Massimo Dutti’s linen-blend version in four effortlessly chic ways.
1
Layer Up
For a cool, relaxed vibe, layer your striped shirt over pieces that may otherwise feel too dressy for the day.
2
Pair With Denim
Denim + stripes = a match made in heaven. Take the season’s biggest trend, the denim midi skirt, and give it a spin with stripes.
3
Make It Monochrome
Play on the shirt’s classic colour palette with wide-leg white jeans and simple black accessories.
4
Just Add Shorts
It’s easy to overlook shorts in favour of skirts in the summer months, but a well-tailored pair with a longer length will take you everywhere, from the office to a dinner date.
