Trend report: the Quantum of Autumn

“What goes around comes around” aptly describes the upcoming trends of autumn, as major fashion houses are bringing back a lineup of styles that once reigned in the past.
The corset, worn either as a top or waist retainer, is a fashion item everyone relies on to accentuate their proportions. This season, the timeless corset is given a fresh and modern appearance through smart pairing with baggy trousers and knitted sweaters.
A truly festive style, bohemian returns to the current fashion scene with its gipsy spirit. Notable fashion houses delving into this style include Chloé – who has featured boho looks in almost every season – and Giambattista Valli, whose looks are filled with references to American socialite Lee Radziwill’s personal style.
Having been hyped up all summer, formal suits remain popular in the autumn as they continue to accompany ladies looking sharp at the office. Dior, Fendi, and Ralph Lauren offer ideal styling proportions for effortless, mono-shade, head-to-toe looks. For more eclectic options, Miu Miu has creative ideas using trendy shawls.
The way necklines are designed this season have been rather unpredictable, going either high or low in line with the construction of each piece of clothing. Bottega Veneta, for one, showcased an asymmetrical cowl cut accentuated with a metal brooch, which covers the neck in an edgy way. Meanwhile, Jacquemus and Gucci have opted for oversized collars.
