New Look's autumn collection has all of the on-trend capsule wardrobe pieces you need for the new season
Expensive-looking classics
The current weather has been nothing short of crisp, breezy, and absolutely delicious. As an autumn-obsessed fashion writer, I can't help but rejoice as the weather starts becoming brisk. Although I take pride in the enjoyment it brings me, I also understand that switching your closet (and brain) out of the previous summer bliss is no small feat.
That's why I turn to one of my best-kept secrets as a shopping expert to help make the transition much easier: New Look. The high-street retailer has been upping the antics this year with its on-trend offerings for the new season, from everyday luxe pieces that serve as perfect capsule wardrobe staples to its latest introduction of transitional boho pieces that seamlessly blend the boho summer trend into the colder months with different cuts, hues, and patterns.
Most importantly, I've been obsessing over the brand's recently released burgundy edit, which covers this season's biggest colour trend. As seen on the Autumn/Winter 2024 runways, burgundy is a key seasonal colour that effortlessly elevates any look. New Look's autumnal collection includes all things burgundy, including cardigans and skirts, plus some classic pieces like shearling coats and wide-leg denim.
Below, I have cherry-picked my top 16 pieces for those looking to invest in some new chic autumnal pieces or get some stylish inspiration for the colder months ahead.
