Key into the Saturn-ruled zodiac sign’s ability to dress for success with these simple style rules

Unlike their Sagittarius or Libra peers, the last thing Capricorns want is to come off as flashy. Forget about logomania or crazy colours. Choosing to let their abilities and accomplishments speak for themselves instead, Capricorns opt for sophisticated outfits to leave a good impression. Kate Middleton is the perfect example. The Princess of Wales nails the royal dress code with her elegant and timeless collection of dresses, coats, and pantsuits. You’ll also notice that she sticks to the same palette of colours and silhouettes, on top of being faithful to her favourite fashion brands such as Alexander McQueen. Once a Capricorn figures out what works for them, they stick to it—which allows them to focus on more important things like ruling a nation.

There isn’t a colour more suited to a Capricorn’s tastes than grey. Sitting between black and white, the neutral hue exudes modesty, seriousness, maturity, intelligence and calmness when worn. Before you write it off as boring, though, consider how Capricorn supermodel Kate Moss has rocked fifty shades of grey over the years. The style icon tends to take boardroom staples and give them a sexy twist, whether by pairing them with tops with plunging necklines or adding a little bling via silver jewellery.

Capricorns need a uniform when they’re making their power moves, which is why it’s imperative for them to have a fine suit in their wardrobe—or more, in the case of former US first lady Michelle Obama. During her Becoming book tour, the author and attorney cut a striking figure in an array of pantsuits that were not only impeccably fitted, but also came with a flourish. She emphasised her stature with another Capricorn staple: statement pumps.

Sure, he may be known to turn heads with his unconventional style choices on the red carpet, but Hollywood star Timotheé Chalamet likes to keep it low-key when he’s out of the spotlight. His off-duty style reflects a Capricorn’s appreciation for simplicity and ease, which in Chalamet’s case translates into hoodies, plain white tees, track pants, baseball caps and sneakers. While Chalamet shops for his basics at the likes of Prada, Celine and Burberry, you can easily achieve the same sense of casual cool by heading to Uniqlo.

Capricorns are the old souls of the zodiac, which often makes them big on vintage and classic pieces. That could mean anything from owning antique watches or, in the case of a younger Cap, building a ‘90s band tees collection. Both Timotheé Chalamet and BTS’ singer V have flaunted their music tastes through vintage T-shirts that fit right in with their laid-back style.
