Beat The Chill: How To Master Layering, Whatever The Season

This season, we took our coat collection to the dynamic streets of East London, and under this city lens, we focused our styling around clever layering. This meant reimagining looks, so they felt polished yet robust and grounded in a natural everyday reality. Inspired by considerations such as changeable weather, and returning to the office, we realised now is the time to invest in wardrobe staples as multifaceted as we are.

With that in mind, we’ve put together a layering guide that can be tweaked for every day. Think tactile turtlenecks and classic cardigans layered under every coat imaginable, as well as hardworking gilets with a modern sensibility for those in-between moments. Here is your layering landscape.

The tonal layers

Our autumn-winter collection inspires a balance of function and style. Modern puffers provide an on-trend shelter from the elements, whilst blouses, shirts, and cardigans offer a timeless base. See luxurious cashmere and woollen knits that you can pair with jeans or printed dresses, whilst oversized shirt collars bring elements of interest. There’s something about layering in tonal colours that feels considered and chic, and this season we’re leaning into neutral palettes, as well as classic shades such as khaki, navy and black. When the temperature really drops, add more texture via winter warmers; our cashmere scarves and hats are just waiting to be snapped up.

A pop of colour

The easiest way to bring life to winter wardrobes? Layering knitwear in more lively shades. Whether you prefer the ubiquitous polo neck or an enduring cable knit, our styles provide the perfect foundation for all outerwear to be layered over – just opt for a colour outside your comfort zone. For a look that feels tailored to the present-day, follow our lead by layering knits with a contemporary quilted jacket, or amp up credentials with leather trousers and chunky boots. Staying warm has never channelled such confidence and there’s an endless versatility to our staples you can rely on.

Unexpected combinations

On moments where you want an outfit that feels free-spirited yet current, why not try something unexpected? We’re mixing dresses with modern gilets for a network of staples to keep on heavy rotation. Designed to slot effortlessly into your existing wardrobe, you can choose pieces in neutral hues, or if you’re feeling bold, try clashing colours. We’re all about dresses in textures that resemble knitwear and sweatshirts, and thanks to our emphasis on craftsmanship, these are pieces you’ll wear for years to come. The finishing touches? Bucket hats and hardworking boots with an edge.

Day-to-night leather

No longer confined to biker jackets, leather has come into its own as a styling piece with serious day-to-night credibility. As we gravitate towards more supple textiles, it has garnered a coveted category in its own right, whilst offering a forward-thinking way to layer. Opt for our leather gilet for alternative outerwear that can be styled solo or underneath oversized coats as the days get colder. The ideal pairing to jeans and relaxed knits, this is a staple for both weekdays and weekends. And if you’re looking to up the ante, double up with a pair of leather trousers and a dose of leather accessories. After all, sometimes more really is more.
