If you’re in the market for a chic new blouse – for date night or those work meetings where you want to feel the business – may we suggest investing in this season’s high neck style? Spotted in the Khaite, Toteme and Róhe collections, and countless high-street iterations, they are your quick ticket to timeless, polished chic. Scroll to shop our edit of high-neck blouses whatever your budget…

We’ve long stated the cause for ‘jeans and a nice top,’ it has the power to be polished, pulled together, a little bit undone and ‘oh, just threw it together.’ It’s the perfect combo for nailing that nonchalant French girl approach to dressing.

We have spotted plenty of Instagram’s style mavens working the trend, from Anouk Yve’s waterfall-necked COS blouse to Sylvie Mus’ stunning silk blouse with tiny polka dots. Both are excellent with a pair of straight-leg, baggy or barrel jeans but equally as good paired with wide-leg tailored trousers if you need to feel a little more glossy.

For a bit of high-octane after-hours chic, we also love the way Fabiana Cristina styles her high-neck black silk piece with hot pants and opaque tights – sexy, cool and somehow not too much despite the high hems.

There are some incredible blouses out there if you’re looking to invest. The Frankie Shop’s charcoal Nyro blouse is a nice departure from classic black or typical off-white and looks so stylish paired with grey menswear-inspired pants; while Khaite’s Bex top is made from crinkled satin-twill and has a high neck with ties that drape over the skin-baring open-back – just so good.

For more affordable options, the high street has excelled itself with the trend. Reiss’ Lina mink blouse is very much giving Chloé’s bohemian vibes without the price tag, while COS is the store to go to for a high street piece you’ll wear forever.
