How to build the ultimate spring capsule wardrobe, according to fashion experts

When you think about spring fashion, what comes to mind? We're guessing, florals. However, for those of us who typically lean into a more masculine fashion style, we’re in luck, as florals were the bottom of the agenda for the spring/summer 2024 fashion shows.

I don’t get much of a chance to stop and admire the opulence en route in that is The Madarin Oriental, Hyde Park, but it’
