Work & Progress
In the past the working wardrobe or workwear have been useful tags for either suits or other masculine based clothing stories. In 2024 this is no longer applicable to either women or the clothes they wear, a single uniform no longer functions. It’s clothes for work, yes, but modern, fresh, different, and moving into multiple versions of how the day and the week might evolve. The pieces must change to match this variety and not be edited into a single flat, narrow statement. New attitudes require fresh solutions, original approaches in fashion are vital, and these images show what in 2024 really works for work.
