• Floral prints make a confident transition into winter. Set against dark backgrounds and rich autumnal colours, floral designs take on a beautifully refined depth while bringing a welcome sense of optimism to the colder months.

• Knitwear is all about texture. Cable knits, fisherman’s rib, pointelle, Argyle patterns, novelty yarns and new brushed finishes take centre stage. Sporty polo collars, stand-up collars and timeless roll-necks complete the look. Luxurious cashmere and soft virgin wool make jumpers, cardigans and knitted dresses the pieces you'll reach for all winter long.  

• New softness: texture and tactile appeal take centre stage. Soft velvet, sweatshirt fabrics and quilted designs with wool detailing combine luxurious comfort with subtle sports-luxe influences. Comfortable yet polished, softness becomes one of the defining themes of the season. 

• Co-ords: it's a perfect match. Beautifully coordinated co-ords are the ideal choice for women who appreciate effortless style and versatility. Matching tops and bottoms work perfectly together in colour, print and fabric, while also being easy to mix and match with other wardrobe favourites. New for Autumn/Winter 2026/27 are knitted co-ords that combine exceptional comfort with a wonderfully cosy feel. 

• Quiet glam: understated, refined and effortlessly luxurious. Quiet glam blends eveningwear-inspired pieces with classic blazers and tailored trousers to create sophisticated outfits that feel appropriate for any occasion. Satin skirts, lingerie-inspired tops and feather-trimmed jackets work just as beautifully during the day as they do after dark. 

• Cosy layers: transitional dressing focuses on gilets and coatigans this season. Easy to wear indoors and outdoors alike, they are among this season's biggest trends. Layered over knitwear and paired with tailored trousers, they create the relaxed elegance that defines Autumn 2026.  

• Monochrome dressing remains the ultimate expression of effortless elegance. Outfits styled within one colour family feel clean, harmonious and particularly sophisticated in rich shades or soft natural tones. 

• Corduroy continues its stylish comeback. Few fabrics feel quite as warm and comfortable while remaining so effortlessly chic. Worn as a suit, corduroy reinvents classic tailoring with a relaxed modern edge. As trousers or a skirt, it provides this season's chic alternative to denim.  

• Outerwear takes centre stage, with jackets and coats becoming the statement pieces of the season. From sporty quilted jackets and soft faux fur to timeless peacoats and elegant wool coats, an array of lengths, fabrics and silhouettes ensures you'll find the perfect style for every occasion and every kind of weather.  

• New trouser silhouettes: the choice is greater than ever this season. Wide-leg trousers remain a key investment, particularly with front pleats for an elegant finish. With their softly curved shape and gently tapered hems, barrel-leg trousers are one of the season's must-have styles. At the same time, slimmer silhouettes such as cigarette trousers and slim-fit styles are making a welcome return, pairing beautifully with ankle boots, loafers and oversized knitwear.  

• Velvet and satin: satin's subtle sheen and velvet's luxurious texture add instant sophistication to any outfit. Styled with cosy knitwear or casual denim, these elegant fabrics transition effortlessly into daytime dressing. 

• Denim takes on a darker mood this season. Deep indigo shades are especially stylish in double-denim looks or denim skirts. Rich dark blue feels surprisingly elegant, complements the deeper tones of a winter wardrobe and is equally suited to smarter occasions. Disco denim is another standout trend: jeans embellished with rhinestones, shimmering prints or sparkling details that look just as stylish by day as they do in the evening.
