Most Wanted

Following an exciting month of sartorial inspiration with fashion shows taking place in New York, London, Milan and Paris, it’s the perfect time to update your fall closet with mood-boosting knitwear and chic tailored separates. When curating the foundations of your new-season edit, earthy tones are a fail-safe choice. The sharp cut of Totême’s wool jacket instantly refines any outfit, and the warm camel hue is exceptionally versatile – better still, it’s certified by the Responsible Wool Standard for animal welfare and land responsibility.

When cloudy days are on the horizon, consider playful pops of color by The Elder Statesman. The label’s cashmere cardigan – available only at NET-A-PORTER – is woven from kaleidoscopic deadstock yarns, offering endless color pairings. Helen Broadfoot, NET-A-PORTER’s deputy fashion director, describes it as an easy addition for brightening up a monochrome outfit.

“As much as I love warm summer months, there is something so cleansing about a shift in season – and that goes for my closet, too,” says Broadfoot. “At the start of winter, I always invest in one or two key pieces that will carry me through the season. I love The Elder Statesman’s cashmere cardigan with its fun, distinctive striped print and colors. For a relaxed weekend look, I would style it with jeans, chunky boots by The Row, and layer an oversized, menswear-inspired coat on top. For a more dressed-up feel, I would wear it with loose-fit tailored pants in a neutral shade of tan, and a relaxed trench coat for an effortless yet elevated look.”

When it comes to the finishing touches, fine jewelry and a statement bag ensure that even the most casual outfits look well-considered. Brent Neale’s 18-karat gold ‘Knot’ necklace features pretty interlocking chain links, and is strung at the perfect length for layering with other styles. Meanwhile, Loewe’s must-have ‘Puzzle’ shoulder bag is a timeless classic, reimagined in a fresh tangerine hue. Wear it as a tote in the daytime or fold it to fit under your arm as a clutch for dressier occasions.
