Florals continue to be hot for Autumn/Winter so don't throw away your printed skirts, frocks, and scarves just yet. Instead, combine them with heavier pieces like a cable knit sweater, tailored blazer, or thigh-high boots for a more cold-weather-appropriate look.
Vivid, painterly prints are an alternative to florals, while plaid becomes the season's coveted pattern, especially rustic versions like lumberjack and woodland.
In terms of silhouette, look to long and sleek lines, sharp cuts, and special shape accents such as lantern sleeves, peplum waists, and oversized collars like the one on Bianca Nygård's Portrait Collar Leather Jacket.
Powerfully feminine looks also take center stage, harking back to the '30s and '40s but with a masculine twist - think structured pencil skirt suits and feminine blouses offset by slouchy wide leg trousers.
