Distressed tank tops, micro lengths, flip flops, and sheer numbers… What a fun Summer 2024 has been, fashion-wise. But there’s no more room for denial: as England explores all its shades of grey and winter blues slowly creep into our day drinking plans, it’s time to embrace the autumnal spirit and the good things that come with it—think chunky, cosy jumpers, endless layering, fun jackets, and the AW24 trends we’ve been looking forward to adding to our wardrobes.

But where to start? Positive outlook aside, it’s also true that a new season can often come hand-in-hand with a bit of a style crisis. Getting to know your wardrobe and the infinite possibilities that come with it is an art that takes more than three months to master—and just like that, it’s too cold to wear any of your current favourite combos. But that doesn’t mean going straight back to jeans and a black top. To help you flourish during transitional weather, we’ve put together a list of ideas, fresh from Fashion Week street style, to carry that Brat summer energy into autumn/fall. Keep scrolling…

“If an outfit’s not interesting through colour, then it has to be interesting through shape. And if it’s not interesting by shape, then it has to be interesting through texture. If it’s not interesting by texture, then it has to be interesting by colour.” Remember that viral TikTok audio? It’s time to put it into practice!

Perhaps the best thing about autumn fashion is the endless possibilities that come with layering some of your favourite pieces together. Why settle for one button-up when you can stack three?

What more is there to say? A gold skirt, ballet flats, a leather trench, and Brat’s favourite distressed white tank top. Basically, a work of art.

Iro PVC ballet flats in Pink, £85, Ancient Greek Sandals

Nothing screams autumn more than blazer season—but why not go all out with a full suit? A pair of fun sneakers on the side to spice things up.

There’s something about sporting a white linen set during the warmest months of the year that just makes sense. But that doesn’t mean the colour has to leave the chat during autumn and winter—in fact, some might argue that’s where snowy tones belong. Unsure how to style it? Try a full monochromatic look.

Tabi split-toe painted leather ballet flats, £890, Maison Margiela.
Ruched Poplin Shirt, £44, WEEKDAY
Leather midi skirt with plaster effect, £915, Diesel

Last but definitely not least: prints. What better way to make an outfit more interesting than by adding a layer of dimension to the equation? Animal patterns, florals, plaids, and tweed. The world is your oyster!
