The new season is on the horizon! Autumn/Winter is here and so are a brand new wave of trends. Get ahead of the curve and see our top 10 trends perfect for investing in NOW.

1. Cherry Red – Cherry red has been named by fashion houses as the colour of the season. Perhaps an emboldened transition from Autumn/Winter’s usual maroon, this bright, rich colour is as eye-catching as it is chic. See Anine Bing.

2. Combat/Cargos – The Fashion industry has long been influenced by Military and uniform, this trend for Autumn/Winter is no exception. Perfect for the ladies who like a little edge, combat trousers are a stylish casual go-to to momentarily sub your denim jeans. See Agolde.

3. Metalics – AW23 is gilded with glitter and golds. Whether that be flashes of sequined trousers or pointed heels dipped in molten silver, metalics are trickling into both everyday dressing and event-wear. See Essentiel and Aquazzura.

4. Velvet – Velvet is synonymous with Autumn/Winter dressing. A veritable classic re-designed every year in coveted new styles, this textured fabric has an elegant sumptuosity that is both classic and cosmopolitan. See Sea and Paige.

5. Power Dressing – The oversized blazer is back and better than ever. Inspired by 80’s style boxy shoulders, sharp and pointed silhouettes, an hourglass shape has gripped the fashion world. Cut for a flattering cinched waist, this curvaceous silhouette blends classic tailoring with modern femininity. See Stella McCartney and Rohe.

6. Relaxed Denim – Relaxed denim is upgrading. With low and mid-rise cuts, slouchy styles are taking centre stage with 90’s silhouettes. See Agolde, Frame, Paige and Mother.

7. Leather – Leather is a winter hero that never goes out of style. Whether it’s jackets trousers or accessories, there’s a space for leather pieces in everyone’s wardrobe year after year. See Stand, Dagmar, denim brands.

8. Western – Loved by influencers and celebrities alike, western inspired accessories are an essential piece in the viral model-off-duty aesthetic. Easily paired with both skirts and denim jeans, this country-inspired trend is giving boho and rock ‘n’ roll make over. See Ganni, Marant.

9. Quiet Luxury – Minimalism is on the rise. The fashion industry is steering clear of monograms and large logos, and alternatively opting for classic, understated pieces. This spreads from the simplicity of accessories to the focus on investment, capsule wardrobe and sustainability. See Stella, Rohe, Anine Bing.

10. Bandeau – Bandeau and off-the-shoulder shapes are the new go-to. Highlighting the décolletage with bustier shapes paired with modest skirts and trousers is the evening or event uniform of AW23. See Dagmar.

Let’s not forget the small but mighty micro trends stealing the show! Keep an eye peeled for Birkenstocks, fun evening shoes, maxi silk skirts and silk sets. Grab these wardrobe heroes before they’re gone and get ahead of the trends early.
