Best DRESSED • This season, designers returned to the simplicity of a dress – not as a one-and-done solution, but for the instant wardrobe upgrade a dramatic gown can offer. We’re looking to Dior’s ra-ra frills, Alaïa’s metallic minidresses, Chanel’s feather epaulettes and the king of offbeat opulence Alessandro Michele, who decorated the Valentino show in decadent details destined for the dancefloor.

Well RED • Let a scarlet jumper be the red thread running through your outfit rotations this autumn; the pop of colour promises to spark joy on even the dreariest of days. Wear yours slipped over a crisp white shirt, draped across your shoulders or tied nonchalantly around your waist. Seeing red never looked so good.

CHERRY pick • Celine’s Michael Rider has made it official: red is fashion’s accent colour of choice and the easiest gateway into the AW26 season. Whether it’s a sock, trouser, blazer or, in this case, sleek handbag, you can’t go wrong with a pop of crimson to energise and add a modern edge to a classic palette of black, white or animal print. Our top styling tip? Limit the scarlet tones to a single item for maximum cool.
