The ‘Old Money’ trend has gone viral on TikTok and we’re seriously obsessed.
It’s all about dressing like you were born into an affluent family and focuses on quiet luxury, which is synonymous with brands such as The Row and Ralph Lauren. The Duchess of Sussex, Sofia Richie, and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley are all fans of this understated elegance.
Thankfully, the high street has this expensive way of dressing on lock. Taking a departure from the bold aesthetics of Y2K and Barbiecore, this places an emphasis instead on classic cuts, opulent details, and timeless neutral shades. Keen to fake it before you make it? Our guide awaits…

River Island waistcoat playsuit
The waistcoat is at the core of this trend. We can imagine roaming around the French Riviera in this look by River Island. You get 2 for the price of 1 as it’s actually a playsuit – win, win!
£65 Shop Albaray wool mix textured waistcoat and trousers
The power suit has had an upgrade this year and we’re here for it. We could totally see Margot Robbie in this textured two-piece by Albaray. Best of all, you can mix and match with more casual pieces for an effortless look.
£164 Shop Boohoo collarless waistcoat and tailored midaxi skirt
Waistcoats in all shapes and sizes fit the bill for this trend, and tailoring isn’t limited to trousers only. This Boohoo skirt co-ord is the perfect example of how you can mix things up. Doesn’t it look premium?

To look expensive on a budget, it’s all about investment pieces that will never date. Whether that may be a tailored sleek suit, boucle jacket or striped shirt, it follows the mantra: quality over quantity.
Phase Eight ribbed cropped jacket £99
We love this hybrid of a tailored jacket meets cardigan by Phase Eight. The ribbed knit will keep you cosy, whilst the textured pattern and gold details will elevate your ensemble.
Shop Boohoo pocket detail boucle jacket £40
Can you believe we found this trophy jacket at…drum roll please…Boohoo?! It’s the Chanel lookalike of our wardrobe dreams. We love the monochrome boucle design, boxy silhouette and pretty pearl buttons.
The key to looking the part also relies on you bridging the gap between polished and effortless. So when styling it can be effective to mix up dressier pieces, such as your waistcoat with more casual items like your favourite straight leg jeans. This will exude an “I just threw it on” between polo and sunbathing on my yacht vibe.
