Peplums were all the rage circa the early 2010s, and now they’re coming back in full force – just look to the runways for proof. Givenchy’s spring 2022 collection featured peplum jackets with heavy zippers as its centrepiece, while Christian Siriano channelled a more polished iteration through sleek tailoring and asymmetrical elements. If you’re looking to ease into the trend, consider going neutral like model Emma Cheng. Or, get a little more daring with a statement style like this embroidered pansy-appliquéd tulle piece from Oscar de la Renta. Pair with cream separates and a matching blue heel to finish.

Black leather biker jackets will never go out of style. But this autumn/winter, why not break away from the basic look with a bolder edge? While that could mean opting for a standout colour, you could also stick to the classic shade but play with textures. This Dior black patent lambskin Cannage-embroidered blouson is one such example. Complete with a turtleneck for casual elegance and black sneakers to keep a flow throughout the ensemble.
