Metallics instantly elevate any look, adding gorgeous sheen and lustre. This season’s futuristic trend came from the catwalks, with designers devoting whole collections to winter sport. There’s nothing flashy or showy about the new muted metallics however, think subtle and super-luxe for a touch of class.

With athleisure’s enduring place in the fashion spotlight, your formally hidden base layers have untapped style power. This winter, let them shine by wearing them into the evening, pairing seamless Lycra leggings with luxurious cashmere knits and thick cotton sweatshirts.

When it comes to outer layers, the oversized puffer jacket is king. Voluminous and cosy, the puffer is a surprisingly versatile and inclusive piece: choose to lengthen your silhouette with a maxi version or tap into the trend for shorter, boxy shapes.

Crisp, clean white never goes out of style. To avoid blending in with the background entirely though, pair yours with blocks of colour – think a cloud-like Eric Bompard knit with pastel trousers and a co-ord beanie.

There’s no need to sacrifice a stylish silhouette for warmth this winter. Waist cinching is an easy way to add a little sartorial showmanship, on or off the slopes. Choose a belted jacket, add a contrasting-coloured belt or find a corseted style for an hourglass shape with instant impact.
