“Forever”, when it concerns wardrobe essentials, has changed.
What we once considered essential, may be no longer.

Our social habits have changed, our working environments are different, and our fashion choices are very much different from what they once were. Much of the formality has been swapped for lifestyle wear and the informal become more important.

What is essential"
Many pieces are essential and for each woman, they vary depending on personal style, taste and habit. What shows its face day on day for some might never see the light of day for others.
There are some non-negotiables for me and within those pieces, many subgroups. This is a beginning EDIT – a place to start – and to delve further in later conversations. What should be included is difficult to decipher, as choice becomes confusing and the one conclusion, I have drawn is about my street style pieces. They have multiplied as their importance has increased. A stray pair of cashmere pants has now been replaced with pairs in different styles because the leg lengths and widths now count. Jackets have taken new directions and more relaxed shapes are taking space in a formally more tailored closet.

Watching fashion evolve in this way makes me realise the concept of “forever” pieces is forever flexible and fluid....
