Sen Wye is an emerging womenswear label, founded by designers Charlotte Macke and Holly Keepfer. Its clothing is a nod to the 90s and is both feminine and understated in its look. Referencing the decade's sleek and body-hugging silhouettes, Sen Wye presents updated versions of Calvin Klein's slinky tank dresses and creates separates that would hang in the automated closet of Clueless character Cher Horowitz.
From its tube dresses to its pale pink sweater sets, the Sen Wye lookbook is both minimalist and girly in its aesthetic. The British label creates luxe and understated pieces that are effortlessly cool and nostalgic. The brand embraces fashion's 90s obsession but chooses to be less literal with their reference of the decade.
This lookbook is captured by photographer Katy Thomas and features flawlessly styled wardrobe picks by Molly Bridger.
