While we’re currently in the midst of another heatwave, I am under no illusion that it is here to stay, and autumn is slowly looming. We’re slowly starting to enter that transitional season, and deciding what to wear is about to get a whole lot harder. Finding outfits for a range of temperatures is key for me, but I don’t have a designer budget to match it. If there’s one brand I know I can rely on for capsule wardrobe staples that suit a wide range of occasions and give me that effortlessly chic finish, it’s Massimo Dutti.

Often referred to as Zara’s “older sister”, Massimo Dutti’s collections take on a more refined approach. Known for its sleek, upscale tailoring, soft palettes and focus on silhouette and form, it focuses less on viral pieces and more on capsule hero buys that will last in your wardrobe for years to come. That’s why you’ll find this high street hero in so many great wardrobes across the globe.
