Working Winter To Its Fullest
The 2020 Autumn/Winter collections are dropping now and honestly, here at M2 we’re pretty excited for what our favourite labels are bringing us. Among our top picks is the lineup Working Style is bringing which continues to be an evolution of great fabrics, soft construction, and most importantly of all, comfort. They always manage to hit that delicate mark of professional and social lifestyle looks, making the need for dressing up or dressing down between occasions an unnecessary relic of the past.

We like to support local and the shooting location for this year’s collection represents some of the best and roughest parts of our beautiful country, as well as the birthplace of many of NZ’s iconic architecture.
“We wanted to juxtaposition the beautiful soft fabrics against the hard – masculine rock of North Otago,” says Managing Director, Chris Dobbs. “As a proud New Zealand brand with heritage of over 33 years, we were really excited to go into the spine of our country, into the bedrock and see if we could create something special,” he says.
The quarry the shoot is set in has delivered the stone for works such as St Patrick’s Basilica, Dunedin Railway Station, Christchurch Arts Centre, Chief Post Office in Auckland and Dunedin Law Courts, to name a few.
The Working Style man has an expanded range of options this year. Highlights include a chocolate flight jacket with a removeable shearling collar and a whole host of shirts and suits that can be mixed and matched at will.
All of these options, as well as the cuts and decisions made in their design, underpin the sense of an understated sophistication. Take a look over the next couple pages and visit workingstyle.co.nz for more.
