One Colour – Brown. This season is all about the brown colour palette, particularly a darker, velvety chocolate shade. Expect to see it everywhere – from floaty chiffon dresses to classic leather gloves and boots. It’s a sophisticated, versatile colour that is here to stay.
Plan B – Mustard. Last season’s buttercup yellow has matured into a richer mustard colour. Even denim will be served in this more elegant and versatile shade.
One Texture – Faux Fur. The furry coat is this season’s ultimate must-have. You’ll find it on Russian-style ushanka hats (Dsquared2) or as multicoloured fur trims (Marni). The essential accessory is the fur stole – but make it faux, of course.
Animal Print – Snakeskin. With a nod to the 2000s and giving distinct Bohemian vibes, snakeskin is back. It appears on everything from mini dresses with matching gloves to long- sleeved, ruffled dresses (Zimmermann) and is the perfect finishing touch for a pair of investment boots.
One Accessory – Bag Charms. Following the trend set by cult collectibles like Sonny Angels and Labubu, bag charms remain the star accessory this season. Plush toys are favourites – think teddy bears and other adorable designs that hark back to childhood.
Trench Coats with a Twist. The classic trench has been reinvented with subtle, special design elements. These nods to newness don’t compromise its versatility but certainly help it stand out from more basic versions. Givenchy, Victoria Beckham, Junya Watanabe, Rokh, Duran Lantink, and Carolina Herrera are all championing them.
Sheer Romanticism. Chanel confirms that sheers remain a key trend this autumn, appearing in diaphanous dusky pink and paired with tweed. Dior, on the other hand, offers an all-over dreamy look in off-white and nude tulle for effortless boho-chic.
Straight-Leg Jeans. Popular boho brands have conspired to revive straight-leg jeans. Available in mid or low-rise, extra- long, and often featuring details like a split hem. They pair perfectly with other hippy-inspired clothing and accessories.
Trending Basics. T-shirts, polo shirts, and straight-leg trousers are cult classics. Streetwear is being reinvented with a more minimalist and functional feel. Over-the-top prints are relegated to the back of the wardrobe in favour of clean lines and subtle detailing. The classic shirt also gets an update with new crease-resistant, stretchy, and easy-to-iron fabrics. Long-sleeved polo shirts in eco-friendly, innovative fabrics make a stylish alternative to jumpers.
Comfort & Freedom of Movement. Tapered trousers and suits in technical fabrics offer both comfort and freedom of movement. Washable, stain-resistant versions are gaining traction. Coats are long, and jackets worn like overshirts are a must-have.
