Thank you, it’s new
Yes, we know it’s still warm outside, but consider this your cheat sheet to the transitional trends to try now, from the return of layering to covetable new-season accessories.

Usher in autumn’s heritage mood with tactile textures: think plush corduroy in jewel tones like this emerald midi skirt, authentic denim jeans with exaggerated proportions and silky-soft satin shirts. In a nutshell, fabrics that feel like a comfort blanket when the mercury falls.

The key to mastering the layered look is to blend pieces of different weights in each outfit. For example, a delicate blouse over a turtleneck jumper, or a lightweight trench coat with a chunky knit.

Whether you opt for plaid, tartan or Prince of Wales check this season, make heritage prints feel ultra-modern with up-to-the minute styling. Think oversized tasselled earrings and plum trousers for a rich tonal look. A bejewelled velvet bag adds the finishing touch for evening.

Wear it wide
Bid farewell to your skinny jeans because wide-leg denim is the shape to be seen in this autumn. With a high-rise waistband and hip-skimming A-line shape, the silhouette is much more flattering than you might initially think and makes the perfect companion to a preppy trench coat and court shoe combination.
