The world is bursting with fashion — Saint Laurent’s impeccable double-breasted jackets, Balenciaga’s sculpted hourglass blazers, Chanel’s eternal tweeds — and yet office wear seems to have missed the memo. Somewhere between the runway and the office, all that beauty and creativity got… downsized.
Workwear brands keep promising reinvention, then hand over the same “versatile” blazer season after season — as if the design team missed the trend forecasts. Worse, when they try to break free from the cookie-cutter blazer, they veer off course and fall flat for lack of imagination (our pet peeve: random florals and arbitrary abstract prints). In reality, the right blazer versus the wrong blazer is the difference between looking in the know and looking unaware. Professional women are expected to have a meticulous eye for detail — why should that stop at their presence?
At Maestra, we spend hours in lookbooks, scanning runways, collections, street-style moments, and red carpets so you don’t have to. Then we cut through the noise to find what actually works in real work lives. We decode, distill, and translate fashion into smart, usable formulas — designed to empower, not overwhelm. Our goal is to make fashion a tool of confidence, not a complicated or unachievable ideal.
That’s why each of our Trend Reports ends with a How to Work It section — where inspiration meets execution. Your shortcut to decoding trends and some thoughts on how to apply them for work with clarity.
Insiders have access to our Style Briefings where it all comes to life — our own full looks and outfits inspiration building on the Trend Reports, spanning the business world’s dress codes: formal, professional, smart casual, creative, and casual. Plus those all-important OOO transitions, for women who move seamlessly from boardroom to bar, data room to date night, or conference call to cocktails.
Lastly, everything we feature is accompanied by shoppable options across price points. We’re staunch believers in the high-low mix — pragmatic elegance in practice. While The Row may provide the inspiration and some options, we also add more affordable options across the pricing spectrum.
Because at the end of the day, you have better things to do than scroll or second-guess. We’re here to make looking credible — and feeling incredible — as easy, efficient, and enjoyable as possible. After all, you never know where being the best version of yourself might take you.
