And just what your summer needs
We can just about see a glimpse of spring round the corner, and J.W. Anderson's latest collection for Uniqlo is just the right trans-seasonal capsule for it.
For this SS20 drop, Anderson has played around with British classics again, re-imagining them a modern twist. There are still the heritage checks we've come to expect (remember the reversible tartan coat of AW18?), but stripes and patchwork take centre stage, inspired by the country.
I am especially loving the gingham, which adorns peasant blouses, midi dresses, jackets, linen stoles and tote bags this season.
The menswear is as versatile as ever, and the utility shirts, cargo trousers, striped t-shirts and trench coats would work just as well on women too.
New this season is a line of kidswear which mirrors the adult offering, so there is a little something for everyone.
Last time around, the collection sold out quite quickly, and I imagine it'll be the same here, so be quick if you don't want to be disappointed. Here are my top picks.

Penny Goldstone is the Digital Fashion Editor at Marie Claire, covering everything from catwalk trends to royal fashion and the latest high street and Instagram must-haves.
Penny grew up in France and studied languages and law at the Sorbonne Nouvelle University in Paris before moving to the UK for her MA in multimedia journalism at Bournemouth University. She moved to the UK permanently and has never looked back (though she does go back regularly to stock up on cheese and wine).
Although she's always loved fashion - she used to create scrapbooks of her favourite trends and looks, including Sienna Miller and Kate Moss' boho phase - her first job was at MoneySavingExpert.com, sourcing the best deals for everything from restaurants to designer sales.
However she quit after two years to follow her true passion, fashion journalism, and after many years of internships and freelance stints at magazines including Red, Cosmopolitan, Stylist and Good Housekeeping, landed her dream job as the Digital Fashion Editor at Marie Claire UK.
Her favourite part of the job is discovering new brands and meeting designers, and travelling the world to attend events and fashion shows. Seeing her first Chanel runway IRL at Paris Fashion Week was a true pinch-me moment.
