Mango, has unveiled its latest collaboration – with ManRepeller creator Leandra Medine – to see you through the winter season in style.
You’ll know Mango, but in case you’re not a ManRepeller regular, what was a fashion blog set up by born-and-bred Manhattanite, Medine, is now a fully fledged millennial lifestyle platform, covering everything from style to self-care.
So the hook-up is a clever move from the Spanish high street giant – and you’ll find colourful embroideries, velvets, feathers, sequins and just the right amount of sparkle in this 32-piece collection, timed perfectly for the party season.
Medine describes the range as a New York break in in a European ski resort with a touch of 1960s American university campus. We call it smart-casual.
There’s also a sustainable approach to the pieces, with recycled cotton, wool and polyester used throughout the range in a rich palette of earthy hues, decadent jewel tones and wardrobe staples to shop. Available from October 30 in stores and online, these are what we’ll be adding to our basket ASAP.
Detachable Gilet Trench, £299.99
A trench coat is a timeless classic and this more relaxed fit will suit all shapes. Brighten it up by layering it over a colourful chunky knit tucked into a high-waisted skirt and boots – the faux fur detachable gilet means you can adapt to whatever the weather brings.
Embroidered Jacquard Jacket, £89.99
A statement jacket like this is an easy way to smarten up any outfit. It’ll bring a pop of colour to an all black ensemble or team with your favourite pair of blue jeans for a smart casual look. The jacquard patten in opulent gold and yellow pattern will add a touch of luxe for the party season, too.
