The Enduring Allure of the Check Print
Discover the versatility and charm of the iconic and timeless check print, a wardrobe staple that effortlessly transitions from formal to casual.
Why the Check Pattern Never Goes Out of Style
Tell me it’s time for Autumn/Winter styling without telling me: enter the check. We love a timeless check print for Autumn and Winter styling. Why? It’s versatile. Is there anything more comforting than a ‘trend’ you can always rely on? These are the types of trends we can get behind.
Versatile Styling
Checks can be effortlessly dressed up or down, making them versatile for any occasion, day to night.
Colour and pattern size determine the final look, so if you’re feeling festive, giving girly, or if your style is more refined, there is a check for you.
Checkmate.
Timelessly Trendy
The check print has been a fashion staple for decades (centuries!), and it’s not going anywhere anytime soon.
Enduring Appeal
The check pattern’s universal appeal and ability to transcend trends ensures it remains a wardrobe mainstay.
The Versatility of the Check Print
Formal Flair
Pair a check blazer with wide-leg trousers for a polished, professional look perfect for the office or a special event, or team with a check skirt for a cute co-ord. We love Reformation’s Bondi Blazer, made from sustainable deadstock fabric.
Casual Cool
Embrace the check print’s laid-back vibe with a day dress or punky skirt. Both transition well from summer to autumn with a cardigan thrown over your shoulders, knee high boots or tights.
We love People Tree’s Malin Checked Dress it’s made from 100% organic cotton. Pair with socks and pointed kitten heels for warmer weather or knee-high boots and a turtleneck as it gets chillier.
Feeling Festive
There’s no doubt that check can feel fabulously festive, and there’s something timeless and nostalgic about a red check during the holidays.
We’re slightly obsessed with Slow Fashion brand Damson Madder’s Pia Midi Dress. It’s made from 100% organic cotton and has a multi-way design, keeping the fit fresh.
We’ve pulled together some of our other favourite pieces below from slow and sustainable brands, including, Monica Vinader, Ganni, Nobody’s Child, and as always, we’ve found a sexy pre-loved (designer!) piece, too, this time on Reselfrdiges.
