Trans-seasonal investments
Well-versed in Europe's unpredictable climate, where you can “experience four seasons in a single day,” Celine recommends a versatile approach to autumn dressing. “There’s no need for separate winter and summer wear; light layers can easily transition into colder months,” she advises. Keep lightweight pieces in rotation by layering with turtlenecks or chunky knits. Breezy blouses can also be worn under knitted cardigans or sleeveless dresses, offering endless styling possibilities.
Layer up in denim
Lighten your palette
When refining your autumn/winter wardrobe, dare to venture beyond dark, heavy hues. “Autumn’s palette is pretty predictable,” notes Celine, “with its beiges, browns and warm tones – they never go out of style.” However, don’t underestimate the power of lighter shades. “Whites and other neutrals bring a refreshing twist,” she adds, offering a new perspective on autumnal dressing.

Unlock your coat’s potential
“A staple coat is a must for autumn,” asserts Celine. Whether it’s a timeless trench, a snug parka or a classic pea coat, outerwear serves as the pièce de résistance that completes your layered look. "We all have those moments when we realise it's time for a new one," Celine muses. This season, lightweight quilted jackets are trending. Opt for a complementary, seasonal colour or embrace tonal dressing for seamless integration into your wardrobe as a standalone piece or layer.

Lean into the latest trends
For those well-versed in western-inspired fashion, Celine share her tips for autumn layering. “I'm really into double denim,” she reveals. Imagine a denim jacket under an overcoat for depth, paired with ‘a nice square-toed heeled boot’ for a subtle nod to the trend. Alternatively, embrace fringing, leather or plaid for a daring statement, but remember to strike a balance with your existing wardrobe staples,” she advises.
