Whether working wardrobe magic on Emma Watson's outstanding Beauty and the Beast promo tour (something you can ogle in more detail over on this somewhat genius dedicated Instagram account) or perfecting the ultimate red carpet look for the girls we're always watching—think Sophie Turner or Lily James—Rebecca Corbin-Murray is the British A-list stylist we a) couldn't imagine fashion life without and b) would really, really, really like to go shopping with. Her roster of clients reads like a who's who of the best dressed women of our time, so it's no wonder she's made it onto The Hollywood Reporter's revered Most Powerful Stylists list two years in a row. Look a level deeper, and you'll find that Rebecca herself also has a personal style to rival any, which is why we are thrilled to have her on board at Who What Wear UK to answer your burning fashion questions each month.
Contrary to what some fashion critics may say, the skinny jean is still alive and kicking. Your go-to washes are black, indigo and stonewash. Steer clear from anything distressed or with rips, but a frayed edge is a great update for 2017. You want the length of the jean to hit just above the ankle to avoid any tregging or pedal pusher allusions.
We're now halfway through the year, and I believe that there are two particular styling formulas that now stand out—simple apply to your favourite skinny jeans in order to make this trusted item feel up-to-date. Keep reading to see and shop the skinny jean looks that feel right for now.
Style Notes: For a day look, pair your classic skinnies with a Gucci tee, or anything similarly simple and classic, and a pair of loafers—COS always have a great high street option if you don't want to break the bank.
Style Notes: For the evening, add a pair of delicate heels, like Manolo Blahnik's Chaos sandal in black or neutral suede, and then throw on an Equipment silk shirt.
