PAUSE Editorial: Bringing Spexy Back

The saucy librarian look is spanning the runway to social media, as corporate-core is in full swing and office attire becomes the uniform of the streets. Look no further for autumn/winter’s hottest new accessory than prescription glasses.

Being a dork has always been cool and we have the likes of Raf Simons, Jonathan Anderson and Alessandro Michelle to thank for that, being creatives who have always explored the uglier sides of fashion. With special thanks to Miu Miu, who showed us sheer cardigans and midi skirts are acceptable for the workplace, heading to work just got a whole lot sexier.
