Hand-block prints and playful pajamas, from a New York brand that began with one scrap of fabric in India
Engraving is permanent and cheap, which is a dangerous combination. What to have inscribed, where to put it, and what you will regret.
This is the opposite of a quiet edit. Twenty-four pieces that are doing something with colour, shape or both
Black tie dress codes are in a permissive stretch, where the code is stated and then quietly reinterpreted by everyone attending. I go through satin gowns from A.L.C. and an ALAÏA jersey bandeau maxi, among other dresses.
Layering necklaces has moved past the delicate, all-one-length stack. The better version builds a little architecture at the collarbone: a short pendant, a longer station chain, and one piece with enough shape to stop the whole arrangement from disappearing into a knit. That mix
A low heel you can walk in
The Fits, Rises And Inseams
Louis XIV once kept red heels for his favourites at Versailles, and a red shoe still reads as a small announcement. These are my red heel selects, sorted into pumps, slingbacks, and sandals and mules, in every shade from tomato to oxblood.
The transitional jacket has become the most over-thought purchase in fashion, and the reason is climate rather than taste.
Tailoring spent a decade being sold as armour, cut close and worn to be taken seriously. The current version has let go of that entirely, trading precision for ease without losing the structure underneath. It is the clearest sign that the return-to-office argument has been settled on the wearer's terms.
Cropped jackets are back, stopping at the waist in everything from denim to cashmere. I sorted the range into shell and wool crops, trenches, crepe, leather and suede.
Beading, fringe and real evening weight
Autumn Sonata began with Lilli Elias in 2021, after her studies in archival practice and a renewed fascination with antique textiles. The name nods to Ingmar Bergman, while the products translate archival prints and historic craft references into towels, robes and table linens. It is a home collection with a memory for pattern and a practical reason to exist.
A top and a bottom is clothing. Add a knit, a scarf or a belt and it reads as an outfit. Twenty four pieces that cost almost nothing in luggage space.
High heels break down into a handful of core types, pumps, sandals, slingbacks, mules, and platforms, and the type matters more than heel height for comfort.
Longer than a normal trip, more swimming, and most of it photographed. Eight maxi dresses, eight swim pieces from $90 and eight pieces of jewelry.
Denim got looser and the fit moved to the waist. Barrel legs and slung wide legs are the shapes doing the work. Here it is as trousers, outerwear and dresses.
Eight wide-leg jeans, eight blazers and the loafers that keep it sharp.
Hunting Season was founded by Danielle Corona in 2006 after her time at Valentino, with a point of view shaped by old films, English manor houses and the idea that a handbag can be wearable art. Production now works with artisans in Colombia, where natural fibers and tagua seeds become woven bags, leather pieces and jewelry. The result is restrained enough for daily use but never anonymous.
Fall shoes come down to five shapes, including the soft loafer, the tall boot and Mary Janes. I picked the pairs in each that I would happily wear.
With almost no upper, everything depends on where the straps fall. Eight flat sandals, eight walkable heels and eight slides, from $200.
Soft sets, cozy layers and a short skincare routine for staying home on purpose.
Low rise, baby tees, and mini skirts done the grown up way
Animal print is no longer a statement. It is now close to a neutral, sitting next to camel and black without any fuss. This edit shows how far the print travels, from dresses to bags to the smallest accessory.
The quarter zip has traveled from golf course to fashion week. It is now worn as a layer under blazers and over collared shirts. This edit collects the sweaters that keep it simple and the ones that play with proportion.
Barrel leg jeans replace a straight or skinny line with a curved silhouette that balloons slightly at the thigh and tapers back in at the ankle. The shape has been building across denim labels this season as an alternative to both baggy and skinny fits. This edit keeps the styling simple, pairing the curve with compact knits and clean flats so the jean itself stays the focus.
The most wanted dresses this fall are long sleeves, midi lengths and rich fabrics like knit, satin and velvet. I gathered the dresses everyone is adding to their lists, from midi and sweater dresses to minis.
The capri has returned after twenty years in the wilderness. It is now cut cleaner and sits lower, and people are wearing it with ballet flats and long coats. This edit collects every version, from cotton and denim to leather and knit.
