Grey collared knit and asymmetric skirt with a brown coat

Musier Paris' grey collared knit and Finery London's asymmetric Alani skirt create a smart-casual base beneath Rita Row's brown Cedar coat. The skirt supplies the most distinctive shape, while the grey top and brown outer layer keep the colours quiet. Try this pairing for a lunch meeting or a daytime event where you want an alternative to trousers.

Why it works

The lighter grey knit separates from the charcoal skirt, keeping the two pieces readable under the coat.
A plain brown outer layer frames the skirt's asymmetric hem without introducing a competing pattern.

How to wear it

Wear the coat open and lightly tuck the knit to make the skirt's waist and hem visible.
Consider dark ankle boots or simple loafers to keep attention on the asymmetric shape.
