As the leaves shift and temperatures dip, our wardrobes need to evolve too. Autumn is all about layered looks, textures that pop, and accessories that carry you through unpredictable weather. In this guide, we’ll walk you through how to style hoodies, jackets, and accessories for the season, highlight signature brands to shop, and show you exactly how to make your newest pieces work from daytime to the terrace.
HOODIES & SWEATSHIRTS
Styling Tips:
Start your base layer with a quality hoodie or sweatshirt that fits close to the body—not bulky, but comfortable. The key this season is layering smartly, not piling on.
For extra warmth and style, let your hoodie hood peek out from under a jacket. That raw edge of cotton adds contrast.
Textured fabrics (like cotton fleece, lambswool-blend panels) are on trend for AW25, helping your look feel tactile and elevated.
Brands to watch: Stone Island’s fleece lines, CP Company’s technical hoodies, and Burberry’s heavier cotton blends. These carry weight in both style and substance.
JACKETS, COATS & GILETS
Styling Tips:
Autumn demands versatility. Reversible pieces or lined overshirts are gold this season—they let you flip your look while staying warm.
Trench coats are more than classic—they’re transitional. Style with knitwear beneath and let your cuffs roll.
For colder days, mix in bomber jackets or lightweight puffers under longer coats to get insulation without bulk.
Earth tones, muted olive, chocolate brown, and deep navy are dominating outerwear this year — they pair cleanly with autumn palettes.
Don’t forget to play with length: a mid-length coat over cropped trousers or slim denim elongates your frame and gives room for layers.
AUTUMN ACCESSORIES
Styling Tips:
Accessories are your finishing move. Go for structured scarves, ribbed beanies, and leather gloves—in heritage checks or rich autumn tones.
When choosing a hat, reversible bucket styles are winning for utility and aesthetic.
Leather goods (wallets, belts, cardholders) in cognac or deep tan complement cooler tones beautifully.
Bracelet watches with fabric or leather straps bring that subtle detail that elevates your look without shouting.
Reminder: your accessories should contrast or harmonise, never match too closely. A gucci print scarf with a neutral coat gives balance.
SIGNATURE CHECKS & PRINTS
Heritage prints and iconic checks define the season. Brands like Burberry (with its classic trench check), Aquascutum (club check), and Gucci (bold monogram/supreme canvas) set the visual tone for autumn style. When you shop these signature patterns, consider these tips:
Use checks sparingly: a statement scarf or hat against a more muted coat will draw the eye.
Layer patterns carefully: pair checks with subtle textures rather than bold prints, so the look feels calculated, not busy.
Color coordinate: pick one accent check tone and echo it through accessories (a tie, glove trim, hat).
Invest in one check-forward outerwear piece this season—it becomes your anchor garment.
