ageless style: spring greens

ageless style has collated a selection of brilliant trousers in Spring greens. Included are styles which we think are timeless, beautifully tailored and which will perform with equal merit in a Summer wardrobe. As ever, we have chosen fabrics which are mainly composed of natural fibres; fine wool, cotton, linen and silk. We hope you enjoy the post and find it useful. Go green! (Click on an item's description to make a purchase)

Wear these tailored, fitted trousers in a deep green as casual attire, for a well edited Spring/Summer wardrobe. Effortlessly cool in a cotton/linen mix.

Bold hues such as this bright green (below) are most definitely on trend and work particularly well when accompanied by a semi-abstract printed silk blouse. The combination of tailored pieces exudes chic.

With a nod firmly in the direction of the trend for pastels, AS acknowledges that a quietly cool mint green, acid green and pistachio green hues are pastels for grown-ups whilst being playful and whimsical.

White (and off-white) dresses. Spring is here.

To coincide with the arrival of Spring, ageless style has done the hard work for you by compiling a collection of white dresses.  The emphasis here is classic shape, with a focus on clean lines and minimal fuss.  We have chosen fabrics which are primarily natural such as cotton, silk and linen although viscose is added to some pieces for an improved fit.  Wear the dresses with pumps or sandals by day, or add towering heels for evening cocktails.  [Click on an item's description to purchase]

Who is ageless style?

In the fashion industry there is a growing need for classic designs which are timeless, or ageless; not governed by consumer age, trend or season.  Although there are selected pieces within high street brands which can be said to be classic, there is not a label which has an entire collection.  Ageless style will fulfill this requirement by supplying an online centralised space which will provide consumer awareness of selected suitable ageless pieces available on the high street.

This space aims to keep you informed about fashion pieces that are ageless.  Appropriately conceived in 2011 when, in fashion,  “grown-up thinking has overtaken trendy folly”, (American Vogue, August, 2010).
