The British style of clothing is distinguished by its eclecticism. From punk to royal formality, from Dr. Martens boots to twinsets (cardigan and top), the wardrobe of the inhabitants of Foggy Albion is diverse. But this is its charm. In the end, fashion is an accessible form of self-expression, and no one should be limited by one or another aesthetic. In this review, we will go through the main, famous, significant items of clothing that the British introduced into modern world fashion. The most interesting thing is that we already use many of them.

Trench

Whether it's cloudy or sunny, a trench coat or raincoat with a tassel, belt and English collar is an elegant and timeless British invention for "covering up". You can wear anything under it, from ripped jeans to sequin dresses. And there's always a good time to throw on a trench coat.

White shirt

Perhaps the most classic item of clothing on this list, since a white shirt is an essential part of the British everyday wardrobe. It enhances the look with any "bottom". Even with leggings and sneakers.

MBD or black midi dress

It is often overshadowed by trendy bright dresses. But British fashion designers know that few things can truly compete with a midi black dress. Here, it is considered suitable "for a feast, and for peace, and for good people", worn both to a wedding and for a couple of cocktails in the neighborhood pub. Simply the perfect option for lovers of minimalism and those who do not like to spend a lot of time getting ready.

Straight jeans

When it comes to denim, many prefer simplicity. For example, light blue, “washed” jeans with straight legs are what the British adore. Of course, you can always use ultra-fashionable options that will break up the daily monotony of clothing. But everyone always comes back to straight blue jeans.

Black turtleneck

Layers are an integral part of British style, and there is nothing more versatile than a black turtleneck. If you wear it with a shirt or an elegant blazer, nothing will help you stay so chic and slim.

Suit

British women love simple, versatile pieces, including a two-piece suit. Wear it in the summer with lightweight shoes. In the fall, it will keep you warmer than a dress or skirt.

Pleated Skirt

There is currently an explosion of interest in lightweight pleated skirts in the UK. Fashionistas often wear them with sandals and open-back vests in the evenings, and wear them with thick knitwear and moccasins during the day.

Black Leather Biker Jacket

Thanks to their rock 'n' roll heritage, biker jackets have been a must-have item in the British wardrobe for decades. They are so organic to the local style that many brides prefer to wear them to their wedding, right over a white dress.

Knitted Sweater

Classic knitted jumpers are indispensable for protection from the cold at any time of year. But more often British girls wear them in the winter months. Now in stores there is a large number of such items of clothing, adapted to modern fashion - shortened, with cutouts, inserts on zippers, etc.

Loafers

Perhaps these shoes first appeared in Norway, but the British adopted them to add gloss to looks with jeans and dresses. Loafers in Foggy Albion can be found for every taste and budget.

White T-shirt

No one can remember where this irreplaceable item of clothing appeared. But the British made it not just the basis of looks, but an important component for their favorite layering or summer "two-piece" with shorts and skirts.
