Looking expensive has very little to do with how much money you spend. Some of the most luxurious-looking women aren't dressed head-to-toe in designer labels; they simply understand the power of fit, grooming, proportion, colour and attention to detail. A £60 outfit that fits beautifully, is perfectly pressed and styled with elegant accessories can easily look more sophisticated than a £3,000 designer outfit that doesn't fit properly. If you want to create that polished £10,000 look without the £10,000 price tag, these are the styling secrets worth knowing.
1. Tailoring is the ultimate luxury hack. Nothing makes clothing look more expensive than an incredible fit. Affordable trousers that have been adjusted perfectly at the waist and hem can look bespoke, while a blazer that sits beautifully across the shoulders instantly creates a stronger silhouette. Instead of constantly buying more clothes, consider spending a little money altering the pieces you already love. Shorten sleeves, adjust waistlines, hem trousers and take in dresses where necessary. A £70 suit tailored beautifully to your body can look far more luxurious than an expensive suit in the wrong size.
