I Lead a Fashion Department—These Are the Versatile Items We All Wear

Bobby Schuessler Tue, 15 Mar 2022 Who What Wear

As one of the heads of our fashion editorial department here at WWW, I lead a lot of meetings (albeit virtually for the most part). Often, after we complete the necessary agenda items (whether that’s a brainstorm or a story run-through), the conversation will naturally lead to shopping and what’s currently at the front of our closets. This probably doesn’t come as much of a shock given that we’re all fashion editors. Well, recently, everyone weighed in on the elevated basics they’re coveting. Of course, there was a lot of overlap.

We discovered there are essentially five versatile items everyone on the team owns and won’t give up for a while. I’m talking about everything from a specific denim cut to an of-the-moment shirting silhouette. Keep scrolling for a deeper dive, complete with styling references from various team members and shopping picks.

The oversize shirt continues to reign supreme as a modern staple. In terms of colors, our favorites run the gamut—everything from classic white to saturated hues to lighter shades.

Straight-leg jeans will always be go-tos, but the more relaxed silhouettes are front-runners among the team for that of-the-moment vibe.

Elevated basics are key to a well-balanced wardrobe, and leather trousers are a must-have in this category. That ideal pair will bring an elevated, luxe feel to any ensemble.

Our editors unanimously agree that a slouchier blazer is a wardrobe essential. That A+ style is polished, modern, and chic.

In terms of true spring staples, a trusty trench won't fail. Currently, it's all about the longline styles that we're all gravitating toward.

Next, check out more spring shopping picks.
