Words: Charlie Thomas
We’re still in the heart of winter yet thanks to the whirlwind cyclical nature of the fashion industry, we’re forced to already start thinking about spring. The latest collections are now frequenting shop windows around the country, so despite the current inevitability of snow, it’s time to look forward to the warmer months. Here are 5 pieces to instantly update your spring wardrobe.
UNIQLO RAINCOAT
Featuring classic details such as its adjustable buttoned cuffs, hidden placket and sharp collar, this raincoat is a spring-time essential. Uniqlo have also added their own unique twist with a reversible camouflage/solid lining, which can also be removed for when the weather really starts to heat up.
