Autumn/Winter 2024 fashion trends to invest in immediately

While it may seem a bit too soon to be thinking about trends for the autumn/winter season, we can assure you it will come around a lot quicker than you think and we want you to be prepared. We saw the emerging trends for the season back in February during Fashion Month, and want to give you our insider info ahead of the season. 

This season overall seems to have shifted compared to others and has a much more wearable feel to it. We’ve seen less outlandish, runway-esque styles and more pieces that we can actually incorporate into our everyday wardrobes. Don’t get me wrong, there are still the same artistic variations we see every season, think bold silhouettes, funky fabrics and prints, but the overall feeling this year is wearability.

Thanks to the likes of TikTok, we do see a surge of new trends emerging throughout the season too. Think coastal cowgirl, barbiecore and bratcore, these are the micro trends that come through the social media sphere – but they don’t come from the designer shows. They are still very influential in the fashion world, with this buy-now culture we have adapted to, but they sometimes seem to go as quick as they appear.

Fashion works in a trickle-down system, so they start at the top with the designer shows and trickle down into our favourite high-street stores. As we head into autumn, expect to see a number of iterations of upcoming autumn/winter trend pieces, inspired by the runways.

After scouring the shows and analysing the runways, we’ve come to the conclusion these will be the biggest trends to have on your radar. 

Highland Fling

From tweeds, herringbones and argyle prints to oversized duvet coats, padded gilets and Wellington boots, designers delivered a chic escape-to-the-country feel. Whilst checks appear in most autumn/winter collections, this year holds a more elegant feel to it.

  • Pandora Burgundy Argyle Knit Cardigan

    Kitri

    With a retro feel and its bright hue, this Kitri cardigan will instantly bring joy to any outfit. Style with the matching skirt or instead, pair with cream jeans for a standout statement. 

  • When it comes to the highland fling trend, knitwear it essential. This cute Zara number with its neutral tones will easily slot into any every day wardrobe.

  • Checked Tie-Waist Wool-Blend Coat

    Claudie Pierlot

    Opting for darker hues and a checked pattern allows you to ease yourself into the trend. This Claudie Pierlot coat will be one you’ll reach for year after year.

Boho Revival

It was Chemena Kamali’s first collection as Creative Director for Chloé and she has cemented the revival of the boho for AW24. From sheer chiffon dresses, suede boots, floaty blouses and wide-leg jeans, it’s had a modern upgrade from what we knew.

  • Western Rachel Love Waistcoat

    Free People

    Suede fabric, studded detailing and tan colourway is the perfect recipe to embrace the boho trend. Style a waistcoat like this with a floaty chiffon blouse and wide-leg jeans.

  • Le Slim Palazzo Raw Fray

    Frame

    A light wash wide-leg jean is the perfect style to embrace the modern update of the boho trend. It’s a quick and easy way to ease yourself in if you’re not sure the trend is for you.

  • Medium Embellished Suede Shoulder Bag

    John Lewis x A.W.A.K.E. MODE

    One of the most unexpected, exciting collabs this year, we want everything from the collection. This studded suede bag has gone straight into basket.

Total Textures

Textures were unapologetically bold this season. We’re talking oversized yarns, feathers, shearling, sequins, faux fur – you name it, we saw it. Whether it was a slight detail on a jumper or a voluminous coat, we’re going wild for it.

  • Make An Exit Feather-Trimmed Floral-Print Silk-Twill Top

    La DoubleJ

    With its eclectic print and feathered hem, this La DoubleJ blouse will have heads turning and be your go-to statement piece.

  • Nia Beads-Embellishment Leather Clutch

    Cult Gaia

    Known for their statement designs, this Cult Gaia clutch is no exception. This beaded bag is a great addition to any eveningwear wardrobe.

  • Borg Faux Shearling Aviator Jacket

    Marks and Spencer

    When it comes to winter, there’s no such thing as too many jackets. We can’t get enough of this shearling number from M&S – it looks so much more expensive than the price tag suggests.

New Suiting

Tailoring is undoubtedly one of the trends we see season after season, but since the quiet luxury trend came around, it’s evolved. This season, we’ve seen a shift with more relaxed style blazers, wide-leg trousers and skirt-suit co-ords.

  • Alex Mis Rise Pant

    Reformation

    These chocolate brown pinstripe trousers are at the top of our wishlist. A softer hue for winter than a black style, we’d pair it with a white tee and trainers for a chic look.

  • Black Cora Crepe Waistcoat

    Whistles

    We’ve seen high-neck waistcoats everywhere this year and the trend shows no sign of slowing down. This Whistles number would look great styled with either jeans or the matching trousers.

  • Gelso Oversized TENCEL Lyocell-Blend Blazer

    The Frankie Shop

    The Frankie Shop get it right every time when it comes to tailoring. Their oversized blazer is a key style for the brand, we love this grey iteration.

Animal prints are often seen scattered throughout the runways, but this season the favourite is leopard. We’ve seen it creeping back into our wardrobes already with fashion editors donning leopard print jeans, but expect to see more.

  • Lily Leopard Cardigan

    Sister Jane

    Leopard print is a key piece when it comes to partywear dressing. We love the velvet trim and bow detailing on this Sister Jane cardigan.

  • Leopard Betzy Cropped Jeans

    Ganni

    The latest trend we’ve seen recently is the leopard print jeans and we’re fully embracing it. We love this cropped, flared Ganni pair for every day chic.

  • Leopard Fold Micro Tote

    COS

    An easy way to incorporate the leopard trend into your everyday look is via your accessories. We love this cute little COS bag with its top-handle detailing.

Luxe Leather

When it comes to autumn/winter, one fabric that’s a must-have is leather, and this year is no different. It dominated across the fashion capitals, and whilst black leather will always hold a place in our hearts, this season we saw new colours emerging.

  • High-Shine PU Car Coat

    Anthropologie

    Go all out and make a statement with this red Anthropologie trench coat. We love the contrast white stitch detailing on the PU fabric.

  • Maylee Studded Okobor Alt-Leather Pants

    Nanushka

    Nanushka vegan leather is known for being buttery soft – we love this lime green flared pair with the silver studded hem. We’d style with the matching jacket for an impactful look.

  • Leather Tailored Jacket

    Karen Millen

    Green is a colour we’ve seen everywhere this summer and we don’t anticipate its departure any time soon. We love the boxy silhouette of this chic jacket.

Opulent Oxblood

Last season, bright cherry red had the fashion world in a chokehold. This season, the must-have colour is its deeper-hued cousin, oxblood. Rich in tone and style, oxblood is such an effortlessly chic option and gives an expensive finish to any look.

  • Wool Coat With Detachable Scarf

    Mango

    Oxblood is in fashion but there’s something about the rich aubergine shade of this Mango coat that tips it into top tier status.

  • Nina Heel With Metal Toe Cap

    Anine Bing

    There’s something about a pointed slingback heel that has the ability to instantly elevate any ensemble. Brownie points for the gold toecap detailing and pair with matching jewellery.

  • Embroidered Mohair-Blend Cardigan

    & Other Stories

    When it comes to winter, we love investing in new knitwear. We love the embroidered detailing on this & Other Stories number and its the perfect Christmas Day piece.
