If there’s any way to make the latest Pre-Fall runway trends suitable for your wardrobe and this brutally tropical climate, look not to the shearling collars and heavy wools, but an adaptable element tailored to lighter outerwear – a unique combination of textiles. The mix–and-match approach to textiles as seen in various collections, whether applied to trims or on the garment’s body, has elevated the basal concept of colour blocking into a look that is more dynamic. 

From neoprene bands on the classic-cut trench coat as seen in Givenchy; the contasting trims on both Gucci and Givenchy’s jackets; the patchwork-style materials on Louis Vuitton’s coats and trousers or the ornate printed details atop a blazer on Alexander McQueen, these trendy pieces in rich fall tones are the ticket to your seasonal closet update.
