How to style The Attico: dresses, bombers, cargo pants and zebra, by occasion

The Attico is built for the evening, and the trick to wearing it well is to let one piece carry the look. A fringe mini with flat sandals reads as a holiday dinner; the same dress with a tuxedo jacket over it reads as a wedding. Luxury Shoes ’s fashion editor Gemma Deeks set out how to wear the 222 pieces in stock, by garment and by occasion, with the pieces that prove each point.

Key facts

• One statement piece per outfit: the dress, the bomber, the printed shirt. Everything else stays plain.
• The Attico cuts two fits. Regular-fit pieces take your usual size; the brand asks you to take a size larger on its slim-fit pieces, and the product page says which.
• The house prints, zebra and bandana, pair with black, white, denim and khaki, not with each other.
• The tailoring is black wool gabardine, cut long; it dresses down a lace dress and dresses up a t-shirt.
• Sweatshirts, joggers and cargo pants are cut oversized and long; wear them with a fitted top and a heel to keep the proportion.
• At Luxury Shoes : 48 dresses, 31 jackets, 29 pants, 27 knits and 16 swim pieces in stock.

The mini dress

Start with the piece the brand is known for. The black fringe mini moves with you and needs nothing but a sandal and a small bag; the wool mini with lace inserts covers the arms and reads as the more formal of the two, so it takes a heel and jewellery. For a birthday, the strapless lace and feather mini is the one. In the day, The Attico’s own answer is the melange grey sweatshirt dress, which is a dress cut like a sweatshirt and wears with trainers.

The tailoring

The black tuxedo jacket and the tuxedo pants with the wrap-effect front are a suit that works as two separates: the jacket over a lace dress, the trousers under a plain t-shirt. The grey gabardine pants are the quieter pair for the office. Keep the shoe pointed and the top tucked, because the cut is long and needs a waist.

The bomber and the shirt jacket

The Anja bomber is the brand’s outerwear signature. The military green nylon Anja is the everyday version; the wool and leather varsity bomber is the one for a dinner with jeans. The Diana denim shirt jacket is oversized by design, so wear it open over a slip dress rather than buttoned over a knit. The outerwear guide covers the fur bombers and the coats.

The prints

Zebra is the house motif, and the rule is one printed piece per look. A black and yellow zebra shirt over white jeans, a white and black zebra midi skirt with a black knit, a zebra bikini under a plain kaftan. The bandana-print shirt in light blue and white is the summer alternative and takes denim best. The prints guide has the whole set.

Denim, cargo and sportswear

The Fern cargo pant and the wide jeans are the daytime core. The washed blue cargo pants want a fitted black top and a heeled boot; the wide-leg double-front jeans want a cropped tee such as the black cropped crew-neck and a bomber. The joggers and sweatshirts are cut long and loose; the melange grey hoodie over a slip dress is a very Attico way to leave a party.

Knitwear

The light grey wool and cashmere sweater has the curved Scoop hem, so wear it over something high-waisted and let the hem show the waistband. The beige sweater with the built-in scarf solves the scarf question on its own. The knitwear guide covers the cardigans, which are the pieces to buy for the office.

By occasion

Wedding guest: a midi such as the black corset-seamed knit midi with a heel, and our wedding guest edit for the rest. Dinner: the fringe mini and the tuxedo jacket. Holiday: the zebra kaftan over a bikini, then belted over trousers for the evening. Office: the grey gabardine pants, a white poplin shirt and a cardigan. Weekend: the cargo pants and a cropped tee under the nylon bomber.

Frequently asked questions

How do you style The Attico for the day?

Take the sportswear pieces, the sweatshirt dress, the cargo pants, the joggers and the Diana shirt jacket, and keep the rest of the outfit plain. A cropped tee, white trainers and one printed shirt is the brand’s own daytime formula.

What shoes go with The Attico dresses?

A strappy sandal with the fringe and feather minis, a pointed pump with the tailored midis, a flat sandal with the cotton and viscose summer dresses. The brand makes its own heels; any plain black sandal does the job.

Can you wear The Attico to a wedding?

Yes. The midi dresses, the lace pieces and the tuxedo jacket over a slip are all wedding-guest dressing; the short fringe minis suit the evening party more than the ceremony.

How do the zebra pieces work in a wardrobe?

As the one printed thing in an outfit. Pair zebra with black, white, denim and khaki, and never with the bandana print.

Does The Attico run small?

The regular-fit pieces take your usual size. On its slim-fit pieces the brand recommends taking a size larger, and each Luxury Handbags product page carries that note; the size guide has the Italian-to-UK conversions.

Which piece should I buy first?

A black mini dress, the piece the brand does best; there are 16 black The Attico dresses in stock at Luxury Handbags from $1,040 to $4,710. The nylon Anja bomber is the second buy.
