What to wear to work - TM Lewin 1898 Fresh Look Collection AW12


     Fine shirt retailer T.M. Lewin is  on the move again, they are launching a new collection of womenswear for the Autumn season. Aptly named the "Fresh Look Collection," which woman doesn't want a fresh look as she transitions into the cooler months? However instead of succumbing to the "darkness" the new collection from T.M. Lewin had been introduced with a splash of colour to their traditional tailored shirts. A warm Berry, a rich Teal and a sophisticated Watermelon are the colours to chose from the upcoming collection. 
     The designers have also added detailing to the shirts for the Fresh Look collection in the form of simple frills and stylish bows. An ode to the Victorian style era Black Plain Fitted shirt with bow & frills  White Plain Fitted Shirt with bows & frills  White Plain Fitted shirt with Frills  Black Plain Fitted Shirt with Frills. The little details on the shirts the prints, bows, frills  bring  feminine touches, that we often find must be sacrificed when purchasing work  wear clothing. These shirts will transition well from office to meet ups with girlfriends. As always these shirts are made from 100% cotton.

    The new collection will be available in-store from the  August 6th. Ahead of the launch date I was contacted by the company and sent some material to look over and give my thoughts. In regards to the collection I love the fact that they are using colour, I always say shirts are a great way to add colour to your everyday work wear wardrobe. Even if you are in a corporate environment, a room full of colour is sure to boost the mood in the dead of winter. It is good to see a company like T.M Lewin adding new colours to womenswear, breaking away from the monotonous pinks and light blues, after summer it seems that in the UK designers give up and start making black clothing. 

My top picks are the Blue shirt with the flower pattern, the Red coat and the Watermelon checked shirt.

  1. Good collection.. with a really good review. Just a pity that I'm in a totally different part of the world to the UK. Some of these shirts would look really good on me as work shirts. :)
