Double down on fall tones
‘Chestnut brown, burnt orange, burgundy, mustard — it’s the season to refresh your key pieces with warm, autumnal tones. Marco de Vincenzo's debut Etro collection delivers some of fall’s hero iterations by way of luxurious patterned knits, micro-check tailoring and retro-tinged outerwear. It’s a 1970s-flavored look best served head to toe.’
It’s all in the mix
‘For the season ahead, designers push perennial pieces to a new place, reworking investment styles into modern classics through interesting takes on form and fabrication. Now under the creative helm of wunderkind Maximilian Davis, Ferragamo offers an entirely fresh take on the workwear wardrobe.’
Look to looser shapes
‘The pre-fall collections see traditional menswear staples loosen up. At Ami Paris, this comes via relaxed cargo pants — an elevated update on summer’s more casual takes on the trend — and this statement bomber jacket, modernized with its oversized proportions. It’s a bold look that’s balanced by the French favorite’s argyle-knit cardigan.’
Build your foundations
‘Consider pieces that will shape the backbone of your closet as we move into the cooler months; look to hardworking layers that will become regular fixtures in your rotation. Valentino Garavani serves up cleanly cut tailoring that’s fit for the office styled with denim, as well as more formal settings.’
Invest in hardworking footwear
‘Lucie and Luke Meier set the tone for fall footwear at Jil Sander with a new revision of the heavy-duty boot. The stacked sole and buckled strap take their cues from classic utilitarian design — a trend that never moves far from fashion’s perimeter — while a more streamlined shape ensures this pair lean into a smarter aesthetic, too.’
