If you’ve been paying attention to the runways, you’ll know that the check print trend is set to dominate come autumn and well beyond. So, when I spotted Elsa Hosk getting ahead of the trend, my attention was immediately piqued. Even more so when I realised that the shirt she was wearing wasn’t a fresh-from-the-runway pick nor an archival find. Instead, her semi-transparent oversized shirt is from high-street hero Mango.
At an agreeable £36, Mango’s Textured Checked Shirt comes in the season’s favourite cornflower blue and features an oversized cut, textured finish and covetable checked print.
Worn with little else besides a leather belt slung low across her hips, Elsa proved that this oversized shirt could be the only piece you need in your autumn rotation. However, if you fancy layering it up even just a little, the shirt trend looks just as good styled over a white tee or tank with jeans, or layered over a slip dress while we wait out the last weeks of summer.
Somehow, it’s still available in a full run of sizes—but I don’t expect that to last. Read on to shop the checked shirt trend that’s set to disappear before September.
