Done With Summer Styles, Ready for Autumn Layers? Join the Club
An influencer who's since deleted the video in question recently claimed something along the lines of summer being the worst time of the year for fashion. Not uncontroversial, it seemed, but still affirmative of what appeared to be wider-spread consensus.
And sue us, we agree, too. Because after so and so many rounds of linens and jorts, we long for more options, more creativity in how and what to combine; the light layering of pre-fall styles.
Evidently, this wish is Mr Porter's command: Since our British friends know their way around cooler temperatures, they felt so free as to usher in the end of summer and the beginning of autumn.
Light Layers: The Be-All & End-All of Pre-Fall Styles
Acne Studios Wool Cardigan
Right off the bat, a cardigan's second-to-none in the category that is layered pre-fall styles. This Acne Studio one's subtle stitching, cutesy collar, and pinkish hue lend it the seasonal ambiguity to throw over any given outfit, at any given time.
Cherry Los Angeles Jeans
A good jean is a good jean, all year round. But it's so much more fun if you can style it with more than just a tee. This bright wash is a perfect transit tone, warmly faded for a golden late summer and early autumn.
The Elder Statesman Cashmere Sweater
Pre-Fall styles are not all earth tones, mind you. Take this electric blue sweater, for instance. Cashmere to protect from the chilling gust, a bright color to pop against a fading backdrop.
KAPITAL Embroidered Denim Jacket
A denim jacket's an absolute staple for those transitory bouts between hot and cold. You won't break a sweat but have all the comforts of wearing a jacket – and, with this piece, a unique one at that.
LEMAIRE Belted Cotton Trousers
Other than harsh sunlight charging the black with unbearable heat, there's nothing keeping you from wearing this pant at any other point in time – technically. We suggest you wait a teensy bit, though. You'll feel, and thus look, much cooler. Trust.
LOEWE Puzzle Fold Tote Bag
Pre-Fall styles make most sense when accompanied by roomy accessories that allow for the on and off (and stowing-away) of shirts, hoodies, pullovers, et cetera. LOEWE's Puzzle Fold takes this handy factor to another level, as it can collapse into itself, a mere disk of leather suddenly that you can now alternately use a seat cushion.
