HOW TO WORK NAUTICAL

A narrow striped top is a fashion classic borrowed from the matelots by French designer Jean Paul Gaultier. Try it in red as a change from blue.

Anchors are the skull of the season!

A sailor pant is a flattering alternative to jeans. Wear them cropped and with a very wide leg.

Rope belts, navy, slicker yellow, all good. Boat shoe, bad. A platform sandal is jaunty.
