The time has officially come to start looking to the season ahead, and when it comes to what we’ll be wearing for the next 5 months, there’s a reassuring number of wearable trends and wardrobe staples to consider for the colder months to come (and yes, that could signify the retirement of the micro mini and platform shoe).
There has always been an air of sadness around the end of summer, and putting away your shorts and sandals for another year can be a reminder that the days are about to get darker and drearier, but my answer to that is think optimistically of all of the opportunities for dressing up ahead. This is cosiest period in the calendar, and it’s positively brimming with colour and texture, when else could you wear bright red faux fur? or glossy, head to toe leather? It also signifies the countdown to Christmas and the sparkly party season ahead, and if nothing else, a pumpkin spice latte just doesn’t feel right in 30 degree heat.
So, while this year’s runway collections were a celebration of all things “extra AF’ (think supersized tailoring, floor-skimming dresses and plenty of head-turning colour), when it comes to the items you’ll buy now and wear forever, there were a handful of particularly strong pieces that stood out as hot-ticket items and we’ve pulled them together in a handy little edit for your perusal. Keep scrolling to see the 10 major autumn trends that deserve a place in your wardrobe now, and for years to come.
