Just what is acceptable work wear during the most on-parade week of the year for us fashion folk? A week spent creating a broadsheet newspaper and blog dedicated entirely to fashion requires a certain uniform to be worn. It’s not a ‘look at me’ thing. As with most editors, I’m really not looking to stand out. If anything, it’s the complete opposite, but in a considered, ‘I know what works and what doesn’t, ergo am sporting THIS’ kind of way.

Step forward M&S. Not only have their non VPL pants been a life saver, the denim Limited Collection shirt dress and cashmere stripey scarf [worn today as belt, worn yesterday at our midnight production meeting as turban] among other fashionable attire is today’s thoughtful get up.

What better validation of choice than discovering my younger, exceedingly cooler co worker Blue Hammond wore the same kind of thing but for boys? More from Jeremy Dyson’s Shop Gear later…
