Editor’s Guide: How to Style Essentiel Antwerp
1. The Masterful Clash
Don’t be afraid to pair a floral blouse with leopard print pants. The secret? Ensure the two prints share at least one common color (e.g., a pop of neon pink in both) to tie the look together.
2. High-Low Dressing
The brand’s sequin skirts aren’t just for parties. Dress them down for the daytime by tucking in an oversized graphic tee and finishing with chunky dad sneakers and combat boots.
3. The Statement Knit
Essentiel Antwerp’s knits are iconic. They are often oversized and fuzzy. Let the sweater be the hero by pairing it with simple straight-leg denim and a silk slip skirt for texture contrast.
The Fit: Generally runs true to size, but the aesthetic is often relaxed.
Knits & Tees: These are designed to be oversized. If you prefer a closer fit, size down one size.
