Self-Portrait is one of the hottest new brands around (those dresses!). Find out everything you need to know, here...

For all those in the know, this is the pre-order collection you’ve been waiting for, and for those who don’t yet know about Self-Portrait, you’re in for a treat.

Self-Portrait has quickly become a go-to for stylish A-Listers looking to make an impact in something a little more chic on the red carpet. Fans include Beyonce, Rachel McAdams, Michelle Dockery (above) and Reese Witherspoon to name but a few.

And the best bit? This undoubtedly chic new label is actually affordable. Prices start upwards of £150, and a showstopping frock can be all yours for around £260. So far, so exciting.

So what can we expect? Longline dresses in luxe fabrics and cool silhouettes. Chunky, hero winter coats, super-size jumper dresses and plenty of sleek seperates make-up this irrisistable collection.

Alongside all your new-season staples, the collection taps into some of the new-season's coolest, and most wearable trends. Victoriana being one of the most noticeable looks among the new-season wares. Think lashings of lace, high necks, rich hues and modest skirt lengths.

Sports-luxe styling features heavily, in the form of longline bomber jackets and neoprene fabrics. All in all, this is one pretty cool new collection that we imagine will work wonders for your new-season wardrobes.

Like any great new find, the pieces don't stick around for long. Expect the first pre-order offering to sell out fast. Which, when your dream dress is safely in your hands, is a reassuring feeling, knowing that you will likely be the only one wearing said frock at your upcoming party feels pretty special. Not so great should you miss the boat and try hopelessly to secure the now sold-out style via ebay.

Stockists include Net-a-porter.com, where a tight edit lands on site for a short time only, making this brand even more appealing, as well as Selfridges and now, Matchesfashion.com.

And now, you can bag yourself a pair of the new super chic Self-Portrait sunglasses, too. As seen on the ultra-stylish model, Lily Aldridge.
