Today we celebrate the fashion of the bold and beautiful, in particular the effortless, yet edgy, grey marle BnB hoodie.
Vogue calls it "the ultimate neutral". Karl Lagerfeld describes it as "a wardrobe staple". Barb McKee says "it's filled the gap in my wardrobe that I didn't know I had." Whether it's gracing the cover of InStyle magazine or just looking effortlessly chic at the coffee shop, this pret-a-porter item is a must have for every swimmer. The grey marle has been gracing the catwalks of Manly for many years, firmly establishing itself as a timeless classic.
WWIB? You tell me- I think they all look great!
Gorgeous Michelle likes to pair her hoodie wth a with a wetsuit and a smile. She also likes to pull it out for fashion events and openings.
John and Fiona insist that the hoodie should be worn with trackies and buggies for the ultimate Australian fashion statement. The scarf gives John the modern, yet classically stylish, look that he aspires to.
