There’s no denying that autumn/winter dressing requires a little more thought than the summer months. The days of simply throwing on a light cotton dress, slipping on sandals and grabbing the closest basket bag are well and truly behind us, but don’t fret. The ease of summer may be a selling point, but there’s a lot to be excited about as the cooler days settle into place.
With the leaves browning and a crisp chill returning to the air, getting dressed is about to get a whole lot more interesting. The art of layering is back in business, textures are turned up to the max, and rich shades return to prominence. And if you’re building your autumn/winter wardrobe right now, there are a few fashion brands that are always a reliable starting point.
This time of year is when I invest a little more in my wardrobe. Whether it’s sumptuous cashmere, temperature-regulating merino or supple leather, the cooler days demand more from fabrics and designs, and investing a little more in high-quality compositions and designs can result in a refined wardrobe that sees you through this autumn/winter period and every one to come. For me, the focus is on well-made pieces that have the design and material properties to be long-standing features in my wardrobe for years to come.

With this focus in mind, I’ve curated an edit of the fashion brands that do autumn/winter dressing best. Of course, they excel year-round, but I truly believe they come into their own when the temperatures drop. Take Nour Hammour, for example, experts in leather pieces, whose refined jackets and outerwear can be spotted every time the temperatures drop. For those looking to update their knitwear collection, I’ve hand-selected a series of brands that are dedicated to quality compositions, as well as experts in techniques to create textures and finishes that bring intrigue to even the simplest jumper-and-jeans look.
The running thread between each of these fashion brands is that they focus on composition and enduring design. Whilst contemporary detailing and signature accents can be seen throughout, the pieces rise above moving trends, making for investment pieces that you’ll call upon every single autumn and winter. Now, to the good bit. Scroll on to explore the seven best luxury brands for autumn and winter.
