Thanks to modern living – and the busyness of the autumn months – hibernation has become more a state of mind than a physical downing of tools to escape the world and stay at home, which is why we’re dressing for hibernation instead. A marked difference from the loungewear look that exploded in 2020, thanks to Covid – something that, shudder, we’re too scarred to ever fully go back to – this look hinges upon cocooning yourself in the cosiest clothes that work for both staying in and going out. Think of it as: what is the closest thing to pyjamas I can get away with wearing outside, while still looking fabulously undone?

What’s the look? It’s about spinning a French terry cotton sweater to wear with your favourite straight-leg jeans for the office, mastering off-duty dressing by pairing joggers with a crisp robe coat and, for an unexpected twist, an easy pair of super-soft suede moccasins on a coffee run, or having a great pair of ultra-comfy fleece mules, akin to slippers, that work for both outdoors and in. These pieces ensure you feel comforted and soft while facing the outside world, but equally lend your at-home look a distinguished polish (in other words, you won’t be mortified to open the door to the postman).

To pull off such styled nonchalance isn’t easy, but to succeed always feels like a real dressing win. Shop the best pieces we love for hibernation dressing below.
