WHAT TO WEAR TO

What to wear when the invite says 'smart casual'

By Jemma Tibbals, 26 April 2017

Dresscode. The inclusion of 'code' is pretty explicit that this is something which needs to be cracked, deliberated on, and possibly, for hair to be pulled out over. Until now that is, because Canadian-born model Grace Mahary is the ultimate smart-casual pin-up girl in this winner of a get-up. Time to unpick the perfection...

A simple rib-knit dress (if you're really lucky, already in your ammo) walks the smart-casual line like a pro: fuss-free and occasion-appropriate. Where the real outfit chutzpah comes is via the accessories you choose, in Grace's case it's a sustainably-made fluffy handbag by cool New York brand, Brother Vellies (conversation starter), and hot lace-up boots. Keep your tones complementary (mmmm, caramel) and you're a certified queen of smart-casj.
