With local pandemic restrictions moving forward and then back again, the past few months have been a bit of a rollercoaster. The only thing we can control is the way we choose to look at things. Even with travel off the cards for many of us, it’s possible to imbue our moments with a sense of adventure. So, pitch that tent in your garden or strap on a dive watch, even if you’re just plunging into a pool.

Utilitarian-inspired pieces such as a khaki coat and a colourblock parka get seriously stylish in outsized proportions.

IN YOUR ELEMENT
