Tap into modern everyday outfitting by adding key utility-inspired pieces into the mix. Swap your trousers for cargos and match them with body-skimming knitwear or try slipping on a roomy olive-green shirt with a slim leg pant. The takeaway: It’s a classic play on proportions. As you relax your silhouette in one area, select a more form-fitting, elevated garment to balance it all out.
