As we call a close to August, many of us are avidly soaking up the last of the summer sun before the new season arrives. And whilst I hope the warm weather continues, I feel it's my duty to interrupt with an autumn update you'll want to hear about. The high street has already primed its stores with new-season wares, and I've spotted an expensive-looking jacket that deserves all your attention. Trust me, I've tried it on.
Florrie wears the M&S Textured Buckle Coat (£75)
For autumn 2024, Marks and Spencer is heading up the seasonal shift, kicking things off with a designer-passing textured coat that I've already added to my basket. As you know, we editors at Who What Wear UK have a particular talent for seeking out gems on the high street that look way more premium than their price tags, and with our experience, we know that these pieces are notorious for selling out quickly, even if the autumn chill is yet to set in.
The jacket was a hit last year when it first released, and I am pleased to announce it is back again, offering one more chance to add it to our wardrobes. The natural beige shade has already sold out, but you can sign up for notifications or restocks or check out the undeniably chic brown version. The coat has a textured outer shell, bringing a cosy finish to a seriously chic design, and you'll find popper closures and brushed-metal flip fastenings to secure the coat against chilly breezes.
The coat's brilliance lies in its versatility; the silhouette is oversized to allow you to layer up with a knit underneath as the temperature steadily drops, but of course, it'll work just as well over a T-shirt on milder days and is also ideal thrown over an evening dress, covering all your outerwear needs for the coming months. If you prefer a more straight silhouette I'd recommend sizing down. Through autumn, winter and the chillier start of spring, you'll reach for it time and time again.
