Style icons such as Audrey Hepburn have worn black to convey everything from authority and elegance to sex appeal. Finding the perfect black outfit has never been easier said than done!

Ponsonby is known as one of the style districts…. meet the taylor team from Ponsonby and what they choose to wear to work in this creative and stylish district. ….

We put it to the team to choose one look from the Winter 11 Reveal Collection that puts a little kapow into their week day wardrobes. So here it is! Meet the team below.

For those of you who don’t know her, she is the life of our production here at Taylor. Words from Petra….

Unfortunately this season I am unable to pick only one favourite as I have too many. My top list includes Divided sweater, I just love this piece so much as it works with everything and you can wear it three different ways. I like to layer a black or white half sleeve tee underneath so you get the contrast of the two colours.  In the segment skirt I feel feminine with an edgy twist. My outfit is finished with the loop scarf and you are ready to enjoy your day well dressed!

Introducing Violet, our very talented Fashion Grad and winner of 2010 AUT Fashion award for Innovative Design……… Violet’s favorites

My favourite taylor piece this season is the pleated coda tunic in porcelain. I absolutely adore wearing this piece, and you may have seen me in it, as I wear it all the time! Now that the weather is getting colder  I am wearing it with a long sleeved merino top underneath, a black slip, and black leggings or our navy integral pants. I then finish the outfit with a wide belt at the waist (my favourite is our ‘o’ belt in basalt), then throw my venetian wrap over the top (worn by Johanna here), or facade sweater (worn by me in the picture) and I’m ready to go!

Meet the wonderfully stylish Johanna, all the way from Mexico with her gregarious style and contagious laugh, she will have you sorted with a touch of lovely Latin American!

Jo says….I like to wear the excursion dress because of its versatility with different looks to play with. I love garments with movement. I like to be practical with the things Im wearing  and I can travel with this piece, it packs easily and I get many looks out of one gorgeous garment. With my beautiful ribbed venetian cowl I am finding I am wearing this literally every day. This is one of the best merino wool garments – you will look cool and stylish in this.

Forget the fashion cliches: Here is our pick of top timeless fashion tips to freshen up your wardrobe!

1 ) Go pale – Fact: Tonal layering takes the hard work out of getting dressed in the mornings. Put together a chic neutral palette – we love shale, fog and vapour – from which to build your taylor outfit.

Shay dress fog, integral pant vapour, Nikki Gabriel hirsute vest cream. Leather circle jacket.

2) Button Up – The Essential Shirt will take your further than work. You don’t have to look like a gypsy just because its the weekend. Bring our Fabulous nightfall- navy stripe Definition shirt  into your wardrobe, then add cotton velvet jeans, great heels and a bright lippy.

3) Enjoy the new lengths – We can help you find the silhouette and proportion that suits you best, no matter weather maxi skirts or short hemlines are on trend. We will work a silhouette that will suit you and make you look effortlessly stylish.

4) Keep a fresh feel – We would rather see the unexpected in our cleverly layered outfits. Try  different lengths to create intrigue. Try a longer layer under a shorter jacket, Belt your cardigan or jacket closed…. short sleeves over long…try taylor pieces with a twist.

Meet the wonderful Wellington taylor team, and see some of the winter pieces they can’t live without! The focus of the season for Wellington is impeccable tailoring and streamlined silhouettes!

If you take a trip to Customhouse Quay, you will be sure to meet our chic and stylish Monique, manager of our beautiful Wellington boutique. Words from Mon…….

While we all love a dress for its all in one appeal – I cannot go past my white Half Sleeve Tee and black Peg Pants for winter. I like simplicity, and classic black and white. If I throw on my tee and pants I can accessorise with shoes and jackets to suit all occasions. Heels and a bit of makeup is all that is needed for a night out, boots and my Tweed Destination Jacket for work, flats and my Venetian Cowl Wrap for running around in the weekend. The Peg Pants are a little different, but well tailored and are a great alternative from skinny’s or your classic wide leg.

I have worn my Destination Jacket with everything, it is such a great cut, nice and fitted, the perfect finishing touch… you will definitely get your money’s worth out of this piece!

Rosie is new to Wellington from Auckland, she is young, fresh and vibrant with an amazing eye for style. …and has already put together some stunning taylor looks. Rosie loves……

The silk shay dress is fantastic to wear on its own, it makes a statement and makes you feel great. Its perfect to throw a little Blazer over the top of, and some Integral Pants underneath (especially cool with the vapour colour pants)….you can get lots of wear out of it, don’t just save it for special occasions. I get just as much wear out of it with my long boots casually, as I do with my heels for a night out.

Gab is our fashion design grad from Massey University, and has been with taylor Wellington since opening…..she is a pro at tailoring and is the best girl to come and see for the perfect fitting outfit! Keep your eyes peeled as some of her own designs will start turning up in taylor soon..

Gabs pic’s……….The Integral Pant and Cable Moss Wrap are both great finishing pieces. We all know how easy it is to buy a piece that starts an outfit but with these pieces you can finish many outfits. The Integral Pants have a slight lustre about them which makes them incredibly easy to dress up. They can be worn with any top layer that goes past the hips or if you want to wear a short top pop it over a slightly longer layer -Like our taylor Camber Tunics – to get a great tiered effect. The Moss Wrap by Melbourne label – cable is a favourite of mine because it goes with every single piece of taylor I own! (which is basically my whole wardrobe). This piece looks great, pinned belted or worn upside down. Easy to make your own. The Helium Top doesn’t limit itself to just trousers or skirts. You can tuck it in and blouse it over a high waisted skirt or wide leg pants and belt. Alternatively put a slightly longer layer underneath and pop it over then leg pants.

 

See you in store soon to see what looks these girls will create for you.

You will know our sales manager Anna who is simply the best at putting together a new look for a new you……we just can’t get her out of the shay dress! See what she can’t get enough of this season……

“Truth be told, I am such a black girl! so I love mixing up textures. The silk of the shay dress is great with my venetian pants worn under neath and my over the knee boots……I love the differing lengths of the hem line, I feel feminine but with an edge. On those cooler days I slip a merino/mesh scoop underneath and throw on my circle jacket in the black deerskin.”

Meet Kate who is new to our Newmarket team and a super star mum of four, she knows exactly whats us mums out there need in our wardrobe to look  and feel amazing. ……

“I totally adore the Pleated Coda Tunic in nightfall, I’m a great believer in practicality too and that’s where my wash and wear pieces come in that I just cant seem to live without! I love the fact you can hand wash this one! Also the Venetian Pant is a must for my wardrobe……I feel so good in these, and can dress them up for an evening out or put back with the Half Sleeve Tee and Conceal Raincoat with sneakers and I’m transformed to the sports field.”

Charlene is another talented Fashion Design Graduate, we are so lucky to have such a creative talented team! You will recognize her from the weekends in Both taylor Auckland stores, ready to help you with your styling needs……..Char loves……

“Just like a good pair of jeans, a classic white shirt is never out of style, and I love a good classic with a unique twist. This season for winter I am loving my white Flote shirt. I love the swing silhouette and the crispness of the Japanese cotton. Dressy enough to wear to work and casual enough to have for the weekend put back with a pair of dark denim jeans and brogues. I am currently wearing it with my black venetian pant, and to complete as a winter look my Nikki Gabriel smock cardi overtop with my chunky ankle boots.”

There are many reasons we LOVE Cable knitwear! We adore the fact that their collections are transeasonal. Their silhouettes are modern yet timeless, and can be worn throughout all seasons for all occasions.

Every Cable piece should be considered a luxurious collectable reflecting their use of the finest merino wools and silk cashmere blended yarns.

We find Cable knitwear complementing our taylor philosophy and style time and time again, reflecting refined detailing and a fundamental commitment to quality ensuring the perfect harmony of style and function.

Some easy ways to work Cable into your taylor wardrobe below……………

 

The collar detail on this Cable wrap cardi is beautiful! The wrap cardi comes in Black and cream, essential for all outfit needs. We love this with our taylor helium top in sandbank, leather O belt in basalt and linear pant in shadow, the perfect taylor alternative to a legging and the hide all sins pant. Of course our classic conceal coat casually thrown over top to finish will not only make you look great but practicality on hand it will keep you dry.

There is nothing like a snugly favourite that looks as amazing as it feels. The Cable Moss wrap is available in shale pictured above, a Black and white tweed and of course black. This garment carries the woolmark – the symbol of quality for pure new wool. We love the many ways to wear this style and worked back with our must have buttoned assemble tunic in shale merino, fav linear pant in cigar and if you don’t have a taylor shaped o belt this works fabulously. Throw on your leather circle jacket with this to add a bit of understated chic.

 

Classic is the number one rule of thumb!  Pictured here is the Godet Wrap cardi in black , which is also available in navy and sandbank. Feel as good as as you look with this cashmere, silk and merino blend. Wear this wrap longer or turned upside down for a cropped look to add variety to your wardrobe. Worn with our amazing velvet pant and too good to be true Flote Shirt……….the essential of all shirting.

Pump up the volume with this cable sleeveless godet vest, which can also be worn cropped like the godet wrap above. Shown in the sandbank colour, it is available in black and navy also. Put together with the linear pant in shadow and love thy leather circle jacket in distressed grey. We adore the line at the front and shorter feature at the back giving this shape a modern twist on the winter cardigan.

You will find it hard to make a choice with these lovely knits but you are guaranteed to keep warm and look amazing!
