I’ve Done the Research–These are 6 Autumn Trends that London Girls Won’t Wear
With another Fashion Month behind us and an exciting season of dressing ahead, there is plenty of new style inspiration for those looking for an easy wardrobe refresh in the upcoming months. While the runways might have given us some standout moments we won’t forget in a hurry (Loewe car dress, I’m talking about you), when it comes to what we actually want to wear this autumn and winter, the first place I always look for inspo isn’t to the shows, but to the crowds outside. Street style is the place to go to see how catwalk trends translate to real life, and every city has its own distinct style. In New York, you’ll find the androgynous cool girls who champion tailoring and up-and-coming brands; Milan is your destination for statement, ...
Jennifer Lopez Just Wore the Easiest Jumper-and-Boot Outfit for Autumn
It is a fact that Jennifer Lopez remains ageless. She may undergo a metamorphosis every few decades, from Fly Girl to Super Bowl Halftime Show headliner, but at her essence, she remains Jenny from the block—dynamic, vivacious, and radiant. Fans of J.Lo (now officially Mrs. Affleck) may wonder what this next chapter has in store. Whether dressing to the nines at Ralph Lauren’s S/S 23 show or casually on a coffee run with her husband, Lopez exudes confidence, power, and peace. We are into the Afflecks’ casual couple style, but don’t be mistaken. Lopez’s burgundy ensemble is monochrome dressing without appearing uptight. The oversize knit sweater paired with sportier trousers and lug-sole boots works perfectly in this super-saturate...
Mango Just Collaborated With This French It Girl on a 10/10 Partywear Collection
We’re really being spoiled with top-tier high-street collaborations at the moment. Last week saw & Other Stories pair up with über-cool designer A.W.A.K.E Mode and, launched today, is Mango’s latest collection with Camille Charrière—French It girl, original influencer and all-round modern-day style icon. Tapping into the excitement around the upcoming party season, her 60-piece, limited-edition edit is full of sparkle and velvet, with more than a sprinkle of nineties and noughties nostalgia added in for good measure.

Princess Kate Just Wore the Winter Outfit Editors Use to Look Expensive
Opting for a timeless Max & Co camel coat, Kate masterfully matched the rest of her outfit to it to create high-end finish. This, in the fashion industry, is called monochroming—wearing one shade top-to-toe—and is the very styling trick editors and influencers use when they want to look expensive and put together. Underneath it she wore a knitted midi, which just so happens to be our favourite dress style to wear at this time of year, which she then finished with pieces we’ve seen before—a handbag from DeMellier and heels from Ralph Lauren. New in this outfit mix, however, is a waist-belt from affordable Brit brand, Boden, but I have no doubt it won’t be the last we see of it now that it’s been inaugurated into Catherine’s wardrobe. Continue on t...
Lexus Collaborates With Hiraku Co. and YETI for Off-Road LX 600 Alpine Lifestyle Concept
Lexus USA has just presented this year’s concepts at SEMA, and amongst its handful of sporty vehicles, the luxury LX 600 SUV was highlighted like never before. Appealing to fans of the outdoors and camping, the SUV was transformed into the LX 600 Alpine Lifestyle Concept — offering ruggedness and more off-road capabilities to the premium range of family vehicles. Created in partnership with Hiraku Co. and YETI, the LX 600 Alpine Lifestyle Concept sees exterior enhancements like a Dissent off-road 5052 Aluminum Rack System, 10 gauge steel modular front and rear bumpers, a Comeup Seal gen2 12.5rs winch with Agency 6 shackle, JAOS carbon fiber over fenders, and a plethora of lighting by Rigid Industries. The complete storage loadout sees gear from YETI which is joined with a TrekB...
Little Thunder’s Solo Exhibition “Reality Dropout” Is Coming to Over the Influence Hong Kong
Themes of femininity, sensuality, and humor in a mix of whimsical and mundane settings are common denominators in Little Thunder’s artworks. Born and raised in Hong Kong, the popular artist and cartoonist have won the hearts of both domestic and international fans with her distinctive yet highly technical art style, evident in her astounding Instagram following. For the first time, the artist will exhibit 12 canvas paintings for her solo exhibition “Reality Dropout”, showing exclusively at Over the Influence in Hong Kong. “The name of the exhibition Reality Dropout means to withdraw from ‘reality’. It is about seeking the truth and peeling it back layer by layer and realizing the lines between reality and the imagination is only getting blurrier,” explained the artist. Self...
These Trends Used to Be “Dated,” But They’re Set to Be Big for 2023
Just when you think a trend may be gone for good, a buzzy designer or It girl will breathe new life into it. This statement stands strong as ever, as the current list of what’s cool in fashion pulls from the ’60s and the mid-2000s, and there’s no solid prediction of what could come next. Fashion is cyclical, and it’s only natural that things will come back in style. Even when I report on certain pieces being “out,” I always remind the reader that it’s up to them to decide what’s worth keeping or tossing. And while I’ve grown familiar with the pattern of trends coming and going, a few items that came down the 2023 runways still took me by surprise. In light of discussing 2023 fashion, I scoured the collectio...
I Thought I Was Over Uggs—These 5 Outfits Convinced Me Otherwise
Uggs are making a major comeback. Yes, you heard that right. There’s no denying that they have been bubbling up for a while now, and after spotting some of our favourite fashion influencers donning the cosy footwear, the whole Who What Wear team can’t stop talking about the brand’s resurgence. Ugg was founded by a young Aussie surfer in 1978 and made a name for itself by using only the softest sheepskin to create fluffy slippers and boots, which rose to fame in the 2000s thanks to It girls like Pairs Hilton, Nicole Richie and Lindsay Lohan taking a shine to them. Fast forward to 2022 and after booming onto Instagram, the brand is back and is rebranding its styles as essential autumn/winter footwear. So what is it that we a...
I Put Together 5 Stylish Winter Outfits Entirely From & Other Stories
A big part of my job is spotting great outfits; there’s nothing I love more than stumbling across an impressive ensemble on Instagram and adding it to my Saved folders to share with you when the time is right. That is, except perhaps assembling the outfits for myself! I started my fashion career as a stylist, and while I wouldn’t trade my Who What Wear writing gig for the world, there is something undeniably satisfying about pulling together an outfit from scratch. Only now, instead of styling on a model, I get my creative fix by way of a curated outfit build. This week, I’ve focused my energy on & Other Stories. The brand’s winter collection has just landed on site, and there are so many excellent shopping options. I thought it would be fun to see how...
They Say This New Acne Scarring Treatment Works Wonders—I Put It To The Test
In the days after my treatments, my skin was pink, and I could see the track marks from where the needles had punctured my skin. It certainly looks more severe than it was, and I didn’t experience any pain whatsoever. This lasted up to four days, after which my skin settled and the bumps has disappeared. Naturally, my skin was more sensitive during this time, so I was given some aftercare tips to ensure my skin healed well. I only used gentle skincare for up to four days after each treatment, and mostly avoided stronger active ingredients such as retinoids and acids for the duration of my treatment course. Lynton has a cooling serum gel which is designed to be used post-procedure, which I used in the days after my treatment. I stayed out of the sun and wore an SPF each day, whic...
Influencers Always Wear This Autumn Wardrobe Staple—23 Our Editors Rate
Here at Who What Wear, we love to talk about wardrobe classics. Knits, denim, amazing boots…there are some items that are just born to be part of a capsule wardrobe. But on my recent Instagram scroll I discovered that there was one such item that doesn’t get nearly as much air time, and that’s sweatshirts. From slogan emblazoned to embroidered logos and vintage washed out vibes to hoodies and cropped silhouettes, it’s true that the best sweatshirts come in all shapes and sizes. There’s something about a slogan sweatshirt that just instantly pulls a cosy autumn look together. Whether it’s the iconic image of Diana running errands around town in her oversized number or the myriad of influencers we’ve spotted on instagram in slogan styles, the ob...
Not All Boots and Trousers Go Together, But These Combinations Always Work
As we steadily approach the start of winter, it’s easy to feel like you’ve tried every single outfit combination in your wardrobe. With a reliable rotation of the same jeans and trousers being worn with various pairs of boots throughout the last few months, day-to-day dressing can seem like a repetitive task all to often. Thankfully, with fashion weeks in Copenhagen, New York and Paris all having taken place in the last couple of months, we’ve got plenty of new autumn/winter style inspiration, and we won’t let a little bit of inclement weather stop us from having fun with our outfits. From innovative new formulas to tried-and-tested classic combinations, some of our favourite influencers, fashion editors and street s...
