More often than not, dressing is a balancing act. Lean too far one way and you're more masculine than Annie Hall, too far the other and Alannah Hill's your auntie.
Youth World seems to have the balance just right, mixing classic tailored forms like the pencil skirt, the cigarette pant and waistcoat with seasonal touches. Broad shoulders and tucked waists are offset by lace drawstrings. Shorts are paired with bodices,
monochrome slouch dresses still hug curves, while tight waistcoats draw in wide-cut shirts in natural fibers such as sand-washed silk dupion and cotton.
The third collection from designer Therese Rawsthorne, who counts Issey Miyake and Ozwald Boateng as former colleagues, the label is an ode to classic style and a swan song to over-the-top transitory fashion.
