Sweet yet business-ready, innocent yet serious, a pussy-bow blouse can make a powerful statement – as demonstrated by actress-turned-wellness-guru Gwyneth Paltrow during her dramatic ski crash lawsuit, which she won on Thursday. The star's pale pink tie-neck comes from her own Goop G. Label, and signals soft power in the way that all of her understated courtroom looks have. Caroline Leaper explores how throughout history, the done-up neckline has been loaded with political meaning and social status, from Margaret Thatcher's power dressing in the late 1970s to the Princess of Wales's neckline of choice for a diplomatic mission this month. Scroll down to find out how to harness the power of the pussy bow.

Plus, Victoria Moore shares her top wine picks for Easter and our travel team explore how the war on British tourists has reached Amsterdam.
