Sheer fabrics and lace are at the intersection of boldness and elegance, but there’s no need to go full-bodysuit to embrace this trend. Try a bi-material dress from brands like Greta Constantine and Givenchy, where sheer panels add a touch of intrigue, or don a pair of lace gloves with a long evening dress for instant vintage glamour.

The summer’s miniskirts were fun, but it’s time they made room for the full-length model. A dramatic sweep and the whisper of fabric against the floor guarantee a grand entrance, whether it’s a straight-cut number skirt from Oscar de La Renta or a voluminous denim one by Alaïa.

Gentlemen, the colour of the season is burgundy, and we encourage you to embrace it in a full-on, head-to-toe statement. Think the Louis Vuitton runway and Gucci’s latest collection—that rich, deep tone was everywhere. If going boldly monochrome is a bit too much, make a subtle statement with an accessory: we’re digging puffy Maison Margiela bags, timeless Ferragamo belts and Dr Martens.

Forget plain, practical straps: bag handles are the new playground for designers, who are not holding back. Studded, padded or ceramic, chain-link wristlets or wrist-sized belts, brands are transforming the often least-noticed part of a bag into works of art.

Who said cardigans were only good for lounging around at home? Fashionistas are embracing this grandma favourite this season. Whether wearing them with jeans and boots, or rocking a more edgy look with a leather skirt and sneakers, make the cardigan your secret weapon for effortless style.

If you thought the return of camouflage meant you were going to blend in, you’re wrong. The retro print is back, but head-turning pieces from the likes of Marni and Vivienne Westwood demand attention.

Square-toed shoes are quietly making a comeback, signalling the resurgence of a more comfortable approach to footwear. Leading the charge are Amina Muaddi and Uma Wang, with their elegant ballet flats, while Jacquemus and Prada are embracing the shape in boots and pumps ahead of its domination of the season.
