Attention please, military fashion is not just for size zeros!

If you want to join up to the military trend but worry about all those shiny buttons and fastenings bulking you out in the wrong places then fear not, this season the new look military is softer and easier to wear than ever.

We’ve picked out the perfect style solutions for working the military vibe whatever your shape, size or age – with all the trimmings.

1. Military Accessories

Take this leather satchel bag for example – with straps, studs and metal details in on trend tan, it adds a soft touch of military might to jeans, cords and knitwear. Or slip on a pair of buckle detail boots in grey or black to work with jeans, leggings, skirts or dresses, they’re so versatile.

2. Winter Coats

Pear shapes can easily work this season’s double breasted military coat as its flattering A-line shape gives great hip and bum cover. If you have a fuller bust opt instead for cleaner lines and minimal details like our So Fabulous Frill Hanky Trim Trench in flattering black. With frill shoulder, cuff and back detail it works the trend in a subtler way. And because it’s a classic piece of outerwear you can working the look into every outfit – and for seasons to come.

3. Longline Tunics

Tunics are your best friend ladies! Not only do they work the military vibe, they are comfy, effortless and flattering. Longer in the body, they disguise tums, bums and thighs and better still, there’s a style for every occasion. We love this So Fabulous Stripe Tunic for casual weekends on jeans or leggings (perfect with long boots and a long, lean boyfriend cardi). For smarter days, try this South Military Tunic with slouchy pockets and on trend zip detail. And for a touch of glitz this So Fabulous Embellished Tunic really rocks the look in sizes 14 to 32 with stud and chain detail.
