IN PARTNERSHIP WITH F&F
Achieve everyday elegance with F&F’s Autumn/Winter range at Tesco
Autumn brings with it a promise of new beginnings, and nowhere is that better expressed than in the arrival of F&F’s Autumn/Winter 2025 collection. Fashion that is made for real life – from the moments we carefully plan to those we never see coming – F&F understands that confidence begins with clothing that makes you feel composed, elevated, and ready for anything.
This season, design director Ben Lee signals a return to heritage with a softer, modern edge. Think checked overcoats and chunky knits, long shearling coats that cocoon, and tailoring that strikes a balance between sharpness and ease. Leather sets in inky black, argyle knits and textured co-ords add dimension, while festive months ahead lean into 1950s-inspired glamour – oversized bows, mohair with organza trims, and tuxedo detailing that channel understated chic. The palette is rich yet wearable: chocolate, mocha, caramel and warm neutrals anchor the collection, offering versatile layering for real-world wardrobes.
Dreamy Denim
A standout of the season, the wide leg jean returns with exaggerated flare and a true-blue wash – a subtle nod to 1960s spirit but with a distinctly modern polish. For those who love a coordinated moment, a denim cropped shirt and patch-pocket flares with statement ruffle shoulders nod to boho-meets-western styling. Whether you prefer barrel, utility, or seamless silhouettes, inclusive sizing from 6 to 22 ensures everybody finds their perfect fit.
Tonal Tailoring
One of the collection’s most refined notes is tonal tailoring: easy to wear, endlessly versatile, and quietly luxe. Co-ords are the epitome of this idea – a sophisticated check that suggests country club chic, or a chocolate suedette set that is both laid-back and sophisticated. The ability to wear these sets together or as separates multiplies their value, making them true wardrobe investments. Layer with argyle knitwear in caramel tones for a preppy twist, or contrast with dark-wash denim for a streetwise finish.
Statement Outerwear
Every Irish woman knows the power of a great coat, and F&F ensures no wardrobe is without one. Protective puffers and teddy borg jackets are practical yet stylish, while longline brushed wool coats with built-in scarves lean into high-fashion simplicity. For a touch of off-duty glamour, the mocha faux fur duffle jacket is irresistible: draped shoulders and a box fit bring instant polish to even the simplest jeans-and-boots day.
Perfect Partywear
As the festive season approaches, partywear takes centre stage. The collection channels elegance over excess: clean lines, luxe fabrics, and silhouettes with impact. A cream sequin mini with velvet bow straps is a conversation starter, while the LBD – reimagined with an oversized organza bow – is a lesson in desk-to-dinner dressing. For those who prefer sleek minimalism, the black mesh two-piece is sultry and sculptural.
Hosting at home? Satin co-ords bring laid-back luxe to dinner parties, while burgundy shaggy cropped jackets and velvet bow tops nod to the colour of the season. As F&F puts it, burgundy is the new black – dramatic yet surprisingly easy to wear.
Footwear & Accessories
No look is complete without the right finishing touches. This season’s F&F accessories balance function with flair: biker boots with chunky soles, studded ballet flats that mix delicacy with edge, and western boots in soft suedette for that boho finish. For evening, satin bow slip-ons in lipstick red bring playful glamour, while black suedette kitten heels deliver day-to-night ease.
Everyday Luxury
Not to be overlooked are the quieter moments in the collection: cosy loungewear and capsule wardrobe essentials. Matching sleepwear in festive prints, mohair knits in nostalgic fairisles, and crisp layering pieces in neutral tones create an edit that is as versatile as it is stylish. It’s fashion with longevity – understated heroes that can be styled and restyled all season long.
F&F’s Autumn/Winter 2025 collection is all about confidence with ease – an elevated, quietly bold wardrobe that adapts seamlessly to real life. From morning coffee runs to black-tie parties, from school drop-offs to dinner dates, it proves that affordable fashion can also be aspirational. For full collection details, visit tesco.ie.
