OK so this is not a get-the-look high street bargain, so sue us. Better yet spend the lawyer's fee on this beautiful example of sartorial perfection

Technically a bow flies in the face of the purists' mantra but this bow sleeve cropped leather jacket slips through on the grounds it is unfettered by a collar and we like the fact the shade is 'gingerbread'

This blouse could be the foundation of your summer purist wardrobe, wear it with tapered trousers or a leather skirt. The exposed zip is another design plus, in fact, we say buy two!

As sweet as this skirt appears, the key to the purist look is in the styling. Wear with a men's starched white shirt tucked in, tails protuding from the hem, and a serene look on your face

Good news! M&S have delayed the launch of this delicious butter soft leather skirt, so it is not to late to channel some of the Celine spirit. We plan to wear ours with a black vest

The purist trend doesn't scream sexy, but more quietly elegant. Shorts should be lady like not cheek hugging! For a complete look team with a white blouse and wooden wedge

The clue is in the title, there's nothing over-branded about this fragrance. It's purist to the extreme and we love the clean lines of the bottle too
