WHAT TO WEAR: WIMBLEDON EDITION

What to wear to Wimbledon - The Oldstrom style guide.

Chic, stylish, smart, effortlessly cool- this is the vibe we would want to give off if we were fortunate enough to be court-side next week.

If you have managed to snag yourself a ticket and you want to be the best-dressed spectator this Wimbledon season, then you will definitely want to take a look at the Oldstrom style guide below.

 

Although there is no specific dress code for women at Wimbledon, smart dress is encouraged meaning a suit would be a go-to choice. We would also recommend sticking to a light and airy colour palette.

This Dea Kudibal combination: Zinsa jacket, Carita trousers and Cristana shirt is smart, clean and crisp with a subtle and cool twist.

 

Hopefully, we will continue to be blessed with gorgeous sunny weather for the event, in which case you will need to plan your outfit accordingly.

A linen jumpsuit, dress or set will be light and comfortable for a day outside in the heat, while a big pair of sunglasses can double up as a sun protector and as a style statement.

 

A blazer is always recommended for any event in the UK, just in case the temperature drops… and no one does classic blazers better than Sand Copenhagen!

Complete your look with fun, summery accessories like the Ocean Pearl Earrings from the Caroline Svedbom Resort collection, along with a big stack of matching bracelets of course.

 

BEYOND THE BLUE

The sun is finally out, summer is just around the corner and we have the perfect jewellery collection to complement your warmer weather outfits - The Resort 2024 collection from Caroline Svedbom.

THE AW24 - END OF SEASON ROUND-UP

The start of 2024 was a super busy period for the Oldstrom team - Another successful selling season of showroom appointments, trade shows, brand visits and road trips. But now we have had a moment to rest and reflect on everything we have achieved, we wanted to highlight some of the most exciting events of the last few months.

Take a look at what we have been up to recently over on our socials and in the highlights below.

LAUNCHING GLAS EYEWEAR AT TOP DRAWER

Back in January, we attended our first trade show of the year, launching a very exciting new brand as part of the Oldstrom portfolio - the premium eyewear brand GLAS Eyewear. We also took our popular Swedish jewellery brand Caroline Svedbom to the show and showcased their beautiful Spring and Summer collections. This was a great way for us to jump into the new selling season with momentum and introduce the new GLAS brand to UK customers.

MEETING BITTE AND MICHAEL KAI RAND

At the beginning of the year, Julie and Freya travelled to Copenhagen for the AW24 kick-off meeting with Bitte Kai Rand. On this trip, they got the chance to meet the founders- Bitte and Michael, (Who we have to say are the loveliest people ever) as well as preview the new collection at the brand’s head office. A very fun and insightful trip overall and they can’t wait to visit again for the SS25 kick-off.

SCOOP TRADESHOW - AW24 EDITION

In February, we were back at Scoop, showing off all of the amazing new collections from our brands: Caroline Svedbom, BRGN, Bitte Kai Rand and Sand Copenhagen. We also took this opportunity to launch Edblad Jewellery to our customers and new potential buyers. The Swedish jewellery brand was a massive hit, with everyone loving the chunky, trendy, statement style of jewellery that Edblad is known for. (We love being able to offer customers new, unique and exciting product offerings!)

ROAD-TRIPPING AROUND IRELAND

At the beginning of April, Julia and Freya took Oldstrom on the road, visiting 36 stores in various towns all around Ireland. From Dublin to Kilkenny to Cork to Galway, the girls visited key existing stockists like Ellen B, Venezuela, Gallery 9 and Macbees, as well as introduced themselves to new, potential buyers and stores.

Key takeaways from the trip and all of the lovely chats they had along the way include a very positive reaction to the first season of Mei MeiJ, with stores experiencing great feedback on the brand and great initial sell-through. Another super positive product category for Ireland was accessories, with stores selling current brands very well and looking to introduce new names like Edblad and GLAS Eyewear to the mix.
