A curated roundup of the best new fashion arrivals, hand-picked by our editors
The midi skirt is a versatile staple that you can wear every season, and Jil Sander’s elegant design is the perfect example. It’s lightweight enough for layering over tights and boots in the cooler months, but also perfect with a camisole on warmer days. It can be dressed up or down with ease, too: pair with a cashmere sweater and knee-high boots for a casual look with added polish, or wear with a fine-knit turtleneck and structured blazer for an important meeting or dinner reservation.
NET-A-PORTER junior market editor Abbi Minchin recommends The Row’s sharply tailored ‘Antuan’ coat as a smart fall/winter addition. “I’m a blazer girl through and through. I wear them all year round, but as the weather gets cooler, they’re not enough on their own,” says Minchin. “Enter the ‘Antuan’ coat – a souped-up blazer made from a wool-blend to provide extra insulation when the temperature drops. The streamlined silhouette and padded shoulders work perfectly with slouchy knits and sneakers for that high-low approach. Or, for a sophisticated date-night look, style it with a mini dress, barely-there sandals and simple gold jewelry. Although I tend to stay loyal to my neutral color palette, the vibrant tones that have been littered through this past season’s collections are calling to me. I’m not quite ready to embrace a head-to-toe color-blocked look, but JW Anderson’s bright-green shoulder bag brings a spark of joy to any outfit.”
For an autumnal shoe with endless styling potential, Loro Piana’s ‘Decker’ boots are a fail-safe choice. The flat heel is comfortable enough for wandering around the city, and the sleek profile instantly elevates any ensemble. For a laid-back look, style with tucked-in straight-leg jeans, a woolen shirt and blazer, or take your sartorial cues from equestrian styles and pair with tailored stirrup pants and an earthy-toned sweater. Alternatively, dress up the boots with a body-hugging knitted maxi and add a gilded finish with Cartier’s classic ‘Panthère de Cartier’ watch.
