Styling Guidance

The straight, tubular shaft and pointed toe suit a slim or straight-leg trouser tucked in, or a midi skirt with the boot worn on show. Black leather is a natural neutral, working easily with camel, grey, navy, or burgundy pieces through the colder months. For daily wear, try it with a longline coat and a simple knit, or with a wool skirt and tights for the office.

• Works well with: slim trousers, straight-leg trousers, midi skirts, longline coats
• Colour palette: black, camel, grey, navy, burgundy
