There’s nothing basic about these plus size must-haves.

NA basic long sleeve top is the perfect all-rounder. Whether you style it under a pinafore dress, tuck it into cigarette pants or wear it over your favourite jeans: it’s an absolute must-have. To ensure wearability and comfort, go for a high quality fabric like cashmere, merino wool, or simply natural cotton. During the summer months, a simple but luscious ponte jersey top would elevate any look. You’ll find the perfect outfit-completer in our selection of basic tops by Vento Maro, Zizzi or Zhenzi.

A well-fitting pair of trousers is an absolute must-have when it comes to off-duty basics. It can be effortlessly combined with a cashmere jumper for a laid-back look, or styled with a silk shirt and opulent jewellery for a more elegant feel. Whether made from stretch denim, wool blends or soft jersey following a narrow, straight or wide leg, the perfect pair of trousers is an invaluable investment.

The beautiful waterproof sporty jackets on our edit would offer all-round protection from the elements, with zero compromise on fashion.
