Miranda Kerr wears the Breton top style staple

Miranda Kerr wears the Breton top style staple

Miranda Kerr has the fashionable wardrobe to match her model lifestyle, but she too knows the importance of style staples.

Spotted wearing a stripped top, Miranda manages to ooze Parisian chic whilst toughening it up with her black skinny jeans and black leather biker jacket.

The humble Breton top is an all-round classic that goes with anything and everything in your wardrobe, you’ll find yourself wearing this throughout the year for plenty of different occasions.

Coco Chanel introduced the design to the world, taking inspiration from sailors after visiting the French coast, and it was first seen in her nautical collection in 1917.

Since then we’ve seen it on plenty of style icons through the decades including Marilyn Monroe, Brigitte Bardot, Edie Campbell and Audrey Hepburn – to name just a few.

Miranda Kerr is just one of today’s modern style icons who favours the style staple, Kate Moss, Alexa Chung and Olivia Palermo have also been spotted wearing it whether at a festival or sat front row at a fashion show.

Whether you go colourful or classic, the high street is awash with Breton tops this season – we suggest wearing a colourful hue with white jeans this season for a tried and tested look that is the easy answer every time.
