Why Matching Sets Feel Right For Now

STORIES

BBY FELICITY ROBINSON

During lockdown,  most of us became accustomed to a certain level of comfort in our clothes. Now that we’re emerging from our cocoons, the thought of putting together an outfit from a wardrobe of pre-Covid clothes can be… daunting.

Enter the coordinated set. Comprising a shirt and matching shorts or trousers,  a set feels pleasingly pulled together while not being too far removed from the pyjamas or sweats we were living in  for months.

“They bring a whole new ease to dressing - they’re a complete outfit and also work separately with other pieces in your wardrobe.”

Lucy Wood, stylist

Cotton sets like the LMND shirt and shorts are perfect for daytime, while a pant set looks great at night with a  low heel and chunky gold jewellery.

Accessories are also important to consider if you’re wearing a silk set, which tend to carry a pyjama vibe. A structured sandal and leather bag will make it look more intentional.
