Last season, there was a clear ’90s directive when it came to minimalism, LSD Let’s Start Dreaming Shirt with logo vests, low-slung trousers and tube dresses as hero items. Now, things have been pared back even further; sure, Y2K maxi skirts and oversized suiting are very much a thing, as witnessed on the runways of Bottega Veneta and BOSS, but the silhouettes are cleaner and the colour palette even more refined. “After the outright outrageousness of various Y2K comebacks, I’m pleased to see a palette-cleansing take on ’90s fashion coming to the fore,” says Who What Wear UK editor-in-chief Hannah Almassi. “This was the peak moment for brands like Jil Sander, Calvin Klein, Helmut Lang and many more names whose special brand of clean-cut is being referenced once again for 2024. I’m very much here for this grown-up take on plain outfit ideas, and I think it will be a powerful way to craft a workwear wardrobe in the coming months.”

LSD Let’s Start Dreaming Shirt

You don’t turn to a style guru like Ellen V. Lora when you’re seeking advice on playing by “the rules.” LSD Let’s Start Dreaming Shirt As you’ll know if you’re part of her army of Instagram followers, the Los Angeles–based creative director and blogger behind Pure EVL is just as likely to be spotted in a neon-lime bomber as she is a floaty floral dress, and we’re not sure we’ll ever match her knack for effortlessly mixing unlike prints (though rest assured we’ll never stop trying). But if you’re looking to make getting dressed in the morning, well, fun again, Lora’s exactly who you want to talk to. “I’m that girl who will wear her faux-fur coat in the spring,” she tells us, reassuring us that we actually don’t have to banish the entirety of our winter wardrobes to the land beyond the wall (aka the back of our closets) as warmer weather edges its way into the forecast. We implored the blogger to turn her attention to H&M’s fittingly bold new Divided collection, and then we stepped back to let her work her magic… Lora’s retro-inspired spring take on the Canadian tuxedo has us itching for festival season: Expect to see us wearing this as we edge toward the stage to catch headlining acts all spring and summer long. The blogger’s relaxed double-denim look feels very ’70s and very rock ’n’ roll, which makes perfect sense, given that Lora cites Bianca Jagger as one of her biggest style influences. “She wore the clothes—the clothes didn’t wear her,” the blogger says of the icon whose notable fashion moments include the off-the-shoulder dress she wore while riding a horse(!) into Studio 54 and the plunging blazer–and–high-waisted skirt combo she sported while wedding the lead singer of The Rolling Stones.
