Tired of choosing between "boring formal" and "too casual for work"? You don't have to pick a side. Office wear for women has moved far beyond stiff shirts and structured trousers — today it's about pieces that carry you confidently from your 9-to-5 desk to a client meeting, without sacrificing comfort.
At DEHI, we believe workwear should still feel like you. Our Office edit is built around exactly that idea — mindful, wearable pieces in linen and wool that mix and match effortlessly, so your mornings get simpler and your closet works harder.
Here's how to put together a polished, classy work look using pieces you'll actually want to wear on repeat.
1. Start With a High-Waisted Linen Pant
A well-cut pair of trousers is the foundation of any work wardrobe. Our Girth High-Waisted Linen Pants are breathable, structured, and flattering at the waist — perfect for long office days.
- Girth High-Waisted Linen Pants – Navy
- Girth High-Waisted Linen Pants – Black
- Girth High-Waisted Linen Pants – Beige
- Girth High-Waisted Linen Pants – Coffee
Style Tip: Pair with a crisp shirt and loafers for a clean, no-fuss office look. Stick to solid, muted tones like navy, coffee, or off-white for maximum versatility.
2. Layer with a Woolen Waistcoat for Instant Polish
Nothing elevates an office outfit faster than a well-fitted waistcoat. Our Waistcoats — in Houndstooth, Herringbone, and Check patterns — add structure and a smart-casual edge to even the simplest shirt-and-pant combination.
- Woolen Waistcoat – Houndstooth
- Woolen Waistcoat – Black Checkered
- Woolen Waistcoat – Champagne Beige
- Woolen Waistcoat – Brown Check
Style Tip: Wear it open over a plain top for a relaxed boardroom look, or buttoned up for client-facing days. Keep accessories minimal — a sleek watch and stud earrings are all you need.
3. Try a Woolen Trouser for Winter Workdays
When the temperature drops, swap linen for wool without losing the tailored silhouette. Our Girth High-Waisted Woolen Pants come in rich check and herringbone patterns that read as effortlessly formal.
- Girth High-Waisted Woolen Pants – Houndstooth
- Girth High-Waisted Woolen Pants – Grey Herringbone
- Girth High-Waisted Woolen Pants – Champagne Beige
Style Tip: Pair a printed woolen pant with a solid top to keep the outfit balanced and office-appropriate.
4. Add a Jacket for Layered Sophistication
A well-tailored jacket does double duty — keeping you warm and instantly upgrading your outfit. The Bae Jacket is a wardrobe staple that pairs beautifully with our linen or woolen pants.
Style Tip: Layer over a shirt or top and let the jacket be the statement piece — keep the rest of the outfit understated.
5. Finish the Look with Striped Pants
For days when you want a subtle print instead of a plain trouser, our Soho Pants in fine stripes add just the right amount of personality while staying office-appropriate.
Style Tip: Keep the top half solid and minimal — the stripe should do the talking.

FAQs
1. What fabrics are best for office wear?
Breathable, structured fabrics like linen and lightweight wool work best for office wear — they hold their shape through a long day and stay comfortable in most weather. DEHI's Office edit uses linen for warmer months and wool for winter.
2. Are waistcoats appropriate for a formal office?
Yes — a well-tailored waistcoat in a solid or subtle check pattern reads as polished and professional. Our Waistcoats are designed with structured silhouettes that work well in corporate settings.
3. How do I style a jacket for work without looking overdressed?
Keep the rest of the outfit simple — a plain shirt or top and tailored pants. The jacket should be the statement piece, not one of several.
4. What colours work best for formal office wear?
Neutral and muted tones — navy, beige, coffee, grey, and champagne — are the most versatile and easiest to mix and match across your work wardrobe.
