Style Notes: Leopard print is back as the season’s most in-demand print and fashion people can’t get enough. Before winter takes the helm and you pull our your favourite leopard print coat, shop a lighter leopard dress to dip your toe into the trend.

2. LONG SHORTS

Style Notes: Early autumn calls for tactical styling, and long shorts are one of my favourite ways to tackle the change of season. For added warmth style them with knee-high socks, or pair with a tall biker boot if the weather really starts to dip.

3. KITTEN HEELS MULES

Style Notes: Both poised and practical, the kitten heel mules trend was a favourite amongst showgoers this week. Far more comfortable than your traditional heel, this mini heel trend imparts a familiarly sophisticated silhouette with a fraction of the discomfort.

4. SUEDE TRENCH COAT

Style Notes: The suede jacket trend is coming back in a major way this season, and suede trench coats are shaping up to be the season’s favourite buy. Get your inspo from the Scandi style set and pair with a mini skirt and white tee, otherwise wear with baggy jeans for a low-key look.

5. CAPE LAYERS

Style Notes: Cape layers have been cropping up in fashion circles for a few seasons now, but this time around it’s set to seep into the mainstream. Shop a coat that doubles up as a dramatic cape, or opt for a draping top with a cape-like effect.
