M.C. Overalls: The menswear brand you didn’t know you wanted for yourself

For those of you who don’t know, M.C. Overalls started out back in 1908 as utilitarian workwear for men and was set up by brothers Myer Cooper, Morris Cooper and Louis Maister. Fast forward to today and it’s not just men who are loving it – the brand caters for the modern workforce, including yours truly.

I love this brand because it sells classic pieces, meaning you don’t have to think too much about what to wear. For example, there could be that one piece where it just needs a statement shoe and you’re basically done. The silhouette is continuous so it will suit you whatever your height. I love a classic boiler suit shape; at M.C. Overalls they have a heavy cotton version with a zip up the front – you’ll love it. If you’re a fan of trousers, you’ll love the straight leg styles, the silk pair (perfect for evening!) and make sure you try on the skinny leg version if you’re wanting a slimmer fit.

My top tip: belt the pieces for extra shape, and it’s a great way to take the look from day to night. To tide you over until M.C. Overalls launches it's online store on August 4th, we've rounded up our 5 favourite pairs of overalls in stores now...
