There's something special about autumnal fashion that we can't quite put our finger on, but every year as the season rolls around, we're quite happy to surrender our summer dresses to storage if it means being able to slip into a cosy mohair knit and knee-high boot. Although the steadily advancing nights are a reminder that the coldest and darkest weather is yet to come, it's time to focus on something a little more pressing. The autumn/winter collections have arrived, and with them comes the fresh excitement of a stylish season ahead. And right now, there's nowhere better to turn to than NET-A-PORTER, our go-to for the best mix of timeless investment buys and straight-from-the-runway gems.
While we might have spent our summer refining our wardrobes into a concise capsule of functional pieces, autumn and winter are the time to go all out. (Clever layering means more pieces, right?) In the run-up to what we predict will be a big party season, there's a lot to get excited about.
In a bid to help you find the best in a particularly good bunch of collections, we've scrolled through nearly 3000 items in NET-A-PORTER's new-season shop to bring you the pieces we think you'll truly love. Expect plenty of warm knit dresses, snuggly coats and of course, the head-turning party shoes and accessories that NET-A-PORTER is known for. So keep scrolling for the new-season must-haves we're adding to our wish lists ASAP.
Max Mara is synonymous with teddy coats, but switch up the classic camel for this season's spiciest colour: hot red.
And speaking of classics, a cream wool coat never goes out of style.
Not quite trench and not quite heavy wool coat, this practical hybrid is the best of both worlds.
At Who What Wear, we know good blazers, and this heritage check is the perfect print to give the jacket a seasonal update.
This dress will make anybody feel special, no matter their personal style. Guaranteed.
Between the colour and the ribbed knit, this dress has "autumn best seller" written all over it.
Imagine all the best bits of a striped knit, a midi dress and a sharp, monochrome colour palette all rolled into one.
Gabriela Hearst just showed us how to do tie dye the grown-up way. It's less "Woodstock" and a little more wearable.
This one is for you Skims sceptics. Not only are the brand's dresses going viral on TikTok, but they come Who What Wear–approved for their unbeatable comfort and affordable price point. Layer up with soft knits and an oversized coat for a comfy outfit that still looks put together.
Barbiecore, eat your heart out. There's a reason this playful pink mini is one of NET-A-PORTER's best-selling dresses for autumn/winter.
A fine knit smart enough to replace your cotton shirt. (And it looks just as good with a suit.)
The cream cable-knit deserves a place in the fashion hall of fame for its longevity. We've been wearing them for as long as we can remember, and it's a good sign that there's plenty of life still left in them.
If a dreary day needs a little more colour, look no further than this mood-boosting sweater.
What's our favourite styling trick of the season? Pair a neutral knit with a sequin skirt for a comfort-meets-glamour moment.
Boxy tailoring is a key trend right now, so expect all of the new season's blazers and trousers to be oversized and loosely cut.
Party season, is that you? All these printed pants need is a velvet platform and black blazer, and presto! You have an easy evening look of just three items.
Could a leather skirt and a casual top replace the jeans-and-a-nice-top look? For those yet to be convinced, this is definitely a good place to start.
Sure, blue jeans are cool, but have you tried a white denim skirt?
It wouldn't be winter without a little sparkle, and Paco Rabanne's brand of Y2K-meets-disco energy is the only thing you'll need when party invites start rolling in.
As long as the chunky boot is sticking around, we're eyeing up this luxe take on the trend from Bottega.
Now this is how you make an entrance. The perfect accompaniment to The Attico's party-ready pieces are its glossy mock-croc boots.
You asked for comfortable, wearable heels that feel as good as they look, and Totême has delivered.
We called Mary Janes the shoe of 2022, and from platforms to pumps, this style will be big in autumn and winter.
Cinderella, you shall go to the ball—and the birthday, the Christmas party and the new-year celebration. These spectacular pumps are the epitome of cocktail dressing and are the only thing you'll want to be seen in at the stroke of midnight.
Clutches aren't just for evening, and a colourful, mini pouch like this might just be the next big bag to replace the Jodie.
A mini tote in supple, pine-green leather with just enough space for your daily essentials.
In the colder months, we'll take suede in spades, particularly if its in the form of a slouchy tote.
Be sure to carry the sunshine with you with this joyful little shoulder bag.
The kind of evening bag designed to get the party started.
