Plus: Lisa Armstrong on post-mastectomy fashion
| | Sponsored by | | | | | | | | | | By Lisa Armstrong Head of Fashion | | My favourite aspect of the Ask Lisa column is that I never know what readers will email. One week it’s a 50-something looking for advice on how to update her clubbing wardrobe for an Ibiza holiday. Next, it’s a plea for tips for prosthetic-friendly clothes, following a recent mastectomy.
Often there’ll be universal lessons. In this case, it’s the importance of high- (but not too high) cut armholes that won’t flash thick, supportive bra straps. Uniqlo’s soft vest tanks to the rescue! What’s consistently clear is how good clothes make us feel. That’s why a jersey dress from Jigsaw caught my eye. Elegantly draped with discreet, subtle cut-outs around the waist, it’s anything but matronly.
Bucket hats have been big with hipsters for a few years and now Princess Anne has given them the royal seal of approval. The Princess Royal wore a stylish £23 JD Sports one at the Olympics this week. Bethan Holt rounds up the best ones to buy this summer.
