Celebrities set a high bar when it comes to dressing for a new season, and this one is no different. Whether they're gliding from one glamourous event to another or enjoying a casual morning shopping in the city, the A-list have a knack for pulling together polished and on-trend outfits.
Laura is one of our biggest style inspirations.
We've been paying close attention to their off-duty looks, eager to soak up some sartorial inspiration in time for autumn—and they haven't let us down. These celebrities' lives might be wildly different from our own, but their sense of style is refreshingly relatable. From classic trench coats to perfect-fitting denim, the staples they rely on are must-haves for everyone.
Some of our top picks include Dakota's understated cardigan-and-jeans look, Laura's ultra-tall boots and Rihanna's cocooning cover-up, though there are plenty of other highlights to discover. Keep scrolling to see the eight best celebrity autumn outfits and shop the pieces you'll need to recreate their style.
1. Dakota Johnson
Style Notes: Knitwear is fast becoming a daily staple as temperatures start dropping, but you don't have to jump straight to chunky wool sweaters. Team a neat cardi with loose-fitting jeans for an interesting play on proportions, as modelled effortlessly by Dakota Johnson.
