Whether you’re cosying up in excellent coats, looking to work the high-low mix or priming for partywear, let these outfits inspire your October look …
A great example of high-low dressing, we love how Olympia Gayot, the creative director of J Crew adds glamour to a utilitarian jacket by pairing it with a fringed skirt and flashes of metallic.
Name a more chic earring combination! Give a classic pearl earring a downtown vibe by pairing it with other finishes such as gold and a playful heart motif. These pearl earrings by Danish designer Sophie Bille Brahe are firmly on our wish list.
Glamourise your autumn brunch look by wearing silk – nothing feels more decadent. This V-back dress by ultra-romantic label Dôen is wonderfully feminine.
It’s currently the season of the Long Black Coat (LBC) and this double-breasted cover-up we spotted on Anouk Yve is entirely elegant. It’s designed by Helsinki-based label Almada which is our new obsession.
Belts are always wardrobe essentials but this season they’re elevated to MVP status. We love Monikh’s leather belt by Khaite, pictured – there’s a high street dupe currently at Arket, too.
There’s a specific moment in October when all we want to wear are autumnal shades of rust and tobacoo. This blazer sums up the trend in one.
Vintage-look leather jackets are trending. While we’re coveting Pernille Teisbaek’s YSL version, we’ll be looking to sites like Retold Vintage and Vestiaire to get our fix.
A wool dress is an excellent investment for winter months. We love how tastemaker Lucie Kratochvilova styles hers with mules and socks for extra cosiness.
Last year’s styling trick of throwing a jumper over your coat is still going strong. We love how effortess (and warming) it feels.
As for after dark dressing, it’s never too early to embrace some lurex. We say? October is as good a month for glitter as any. See Lucy Williams at the recent launch of Reformation x Camille Rowe, a collaboration between the sustainable fashion brand and French/American It girl and model Rowe.
