Nail The Corpcore Aesthetic With Mango’s New Selection Collection
Designed in collaboration with Danish stylist Alex Carl, the collection offers workwear in luxurious fabrics for the boardroom and beyond.
It seems like every other week, TikTok brings us a new “core” trend. But unlike other “cores”, such as cottagecore and even mermaidcore, corpcore is a timeless aesthetic with the potential to be incorporated into your work wardrobe for years to come. The term refers to office-appropriate clothing with a street style twist; powerful and practical items that can be worn at work and in your everyday life.
Mango’s hot-off-the-press Selection collection for fall/winter 2024 comprises fluid and flexible pieces that are cleverly designed to take you through a busy day with ease and style. The campaign was shot on the streets of London by photographer Tim El Kaïm and stars top model Mica Argañaraz.
Featuring a range of contemporary clothing created in collaboration with Danish stylist Alex Carl, you can count on showing off an eye-catching wardrobe that not only makes you stand out in a room, but will also get everyone in the office to sit up and take notice.
Changing shifts
The stylish collection is intentionally stitched to take you seamlessly from one occasion to the next as you engage in life around the city. As chic for the evening as it is office-smart for the day, this city-slick collection comprises various types of garments so you can make the transition from day to night in a snap. Combining masculine and feminine elements, dress it up or down according to the mood of the moment or the call of the hour.
Transform a slip dress into an elegant outfit for a dinner dalliance by sprucing it up with choice accessories such as a dazzling necklace, brilliant earrings or a beautiful silk scarf. Or spruce up a pair of smart trousers by shedding those comfy pumps or loafers and slip into a pair of sexy pointed-toe mules, high boots or heeled moccasins to complete the ensemble for a romantic date or formal evening soiree.
Experiment with layers, such as by draping a structured blazer over a halter-neck blouse with a dare-to-bare back, ready to be revealed once that last email has been sent and you’re ready to meet your girl friends for happy hour.
Savvy style
The pieces in this dynamic range exude a timeless quality while oozing contemporary flair that is befitting the modern woman. From power pantsuits and sleek jackets to flowy dresses, the wide range of sartorial options mean you can switch things up for a fresh look every day.
Go bold with a fabulous strapless dress that features a voluminous skirt, opt for a feminine touch with delicate lingerie or mini-cuts, or take the bow trend to the boardroom with long bow accents to add a striking twist—literally and figuratively.
Meanwhile, get creative with the art of layering with dapper trousers—from denim jeans to leather capris—which can be worn in a casual combination or within a more sophisticated ensemble.
From stitch to chic
It is clear that a lot of thought has gone into the construct of each garment. From its practical functionality to the high-quality fabrics used—including pure wool, cashmere, silk and leather—each piece is carefully chosen to yield that coveted smooth and luxurious feel.
Adding to the collection’s creative iteration is its unique inside-out tailoring, which Carl has ingeniously incorporated into each piece. This method intentionally exposes elements such as linings and turn-ups, which are usually hidden from sight. Blending elevated tailoring and ’60s-inspired silhouettes, the new Selection collection brings the best of both worlds in a marriage of classic charm and modern chic.
With Mango’s versatile Selection collection, everyday elegance is easy and effortless. Give your fashion resume at the workplace a boost and make an unforgettable impression wherever your career takes you.
