Walk this way
Now that spring’s in the air again it’s time to lighten up with crisp cotton shirts, jackets and cardigans for a stroll around Tokyo’s back streets.
Spring forth
It’s time to refresh with American classics and Italian tailoring mixed with some Japanese sharpness. Cardigans, lightweight jackets and blazers are perfect for clever seasonal layering.
Pleasure wear
In Tokyo a day off work is a rare treat and whether you spend it walking in the park or working your way through your magazine stash, you’ll need the perfect attire.
…and relax
There’s no need to rush your Sabado in Madrid – potter around the apartment, tuck into ‘El País’, and then take to the streets for a market trawl and some antique book buying.
Mixed doubles
Court-side tailoring gets a serious workout: tennis whites, tomboy tailoring and covetable kitbags prove that sportswear and style needn't be at odds.
Short story
Urban beach clubs call for clothing that doesn’t sacrifice elegance. Opt for neatly tailored swimming shorts that can be worn for a stroll round town once you’ve dried off – or to the bar.
Saddle up
This summer, cycle around the Cyclades in primary colours, checked socks and comfortable pedal shoes and buy a copy of ‘Rouleur’ for something to read on the verge.
Tailor-maid
Sometimes it pays to look that bit smarter, and this season’s neat but versatile tailoring, structured dresses and oversized bags are everything you need to take you from farmer’s market to meeting.
Mellow yellow
Spring is here and it’s time to get friendly with this season’s shorts. If it’s a bit early to bare, we suggest lightweight cotton trousers, 1920s-inspired knits and blazers for mooching.
Showering dressing
April brings wardrobe challenges. For the best in rainwear, tailoring and knitwear, Monocle heads to the streets and cosy shelters of Hayama, one hour south of Tokyo.
