Rihanna is no stranger to the lingerie as outerwear trend, but while we’ve seen plenty of exposed stay-ups, this is one of the first examples of a corset worn as outerwear that we’ve seen in a long time. She paired her corset with ripped jeans and reptile skin heels while out and about in New York recently.

Some people's wardrobes are about a small selection of pieces that all fit within one aesthetic - Tania Braukamper isn't such a person. With a wardrobe that spans three different rooms, her approach to fashion is a mixture of current-season key pieces mixed with vintage finds she's sourced on innumerous shopping trips around the world's more cultured capitals. Despite a disparate approach to shopping, Tania is adamant that the key to mixing vintage with new season is to stick to key looks and colours that work for oneself. And it's a theory that she works into her writing for Fashionising.com, where she serves as the publication's Editor.
