Try double denim
In good news, the vibe for autumn dressing is, overall, quite casual. Utilitarian pieces like barn jackets are big news right now, and fashion is seeking out comfort by elevating denim to be as important as a fancy dress or an It bag. With that in mind, a butter-soft denim shirt feels like a luxurious September buy. We love it best paired with jeans which, on paper, sounds hard to wear but, in reality, has a laid-back appeal.

Don a pillbox hat
Vintage look hats, like pillbox, as well as more outré sailor styles, are the style swerve we didn’t see coming for autumn winter. But they are catching on – and not just on the catwalks. We’ve spotted a clutch of style influencers giving this classic accessory a contemporary twist by pairing it with simple basics, such as a white T-shirt, or no-fuss tailoring.

Bag an XL scarf
XL scarves are trending. And by XL, we mean extra long, as well as extra large. Choose a style that stretches towards your knees for maximum impact.

Use a jumper as a waist cincher
This styling trick has been in vogue for a couple of years now, but there’s something about seeing autumnal suiting cinched with a striped knit that feels particularly fresh. Take ultra-cool New York brand, Apiece Apart, loved by style influencer Monikh Dale, as your inspiration.

Embrace brown trainers
You heard it here first: chocolate brown is the shade of the season. Which is good news, as it always looks ultra decadent. Top of the list for the style set are Nike’s Cortez suede trainers in dark brown. Bag a pair if you can.
