From jaw-dropping separates to lust-worthy accessories, the FW19 runways were awash with covetable pieces. Where to start when choosing your new-season look? It goes without saying that whittling your wish list down to a handful of truly transformative purchases is a mammoth task – but the payback is worth the pain. Start with wardrobe building blocks, like Isabel Marant’s printed turtleneck – the perfect jumping-off point for a myriad of luxe outfits. Headed to lunchtime meetings uptown? Pair it with wide-leg pants, an exquisitely crafted wasp-waist blazer by The Row and sumptuous tan accessories for an elegant yet effortless look with polish. Got dinner downtown? Add a little edge by finishing with Balmain’s leather pants and Saint Laurent’s precision-cut coat. The finishing touch? Cartier’s Panthère watch.
