10 autumn fashion trends we’re ready for this season

As the nights begin to draw in and we start to feel crisp temperatures in the air our heads turn to autumn. Before long the trees will be turning blazing colours of red and copper and we’ll be cosying up in front of the fire with a pumpkin spiced latte to hand.

For many autumn becomes a source of adventure and comfort, with clothing options infinitely multiplied.

While you may be tempted to hit the high street ready to fill your wardrobe with new cosy chunky knits, soft turtlenecks and ankle boots, we’ve got a better, more sustainable way to get your seasonal fashion fix here at White Rose Fashion.

Packed full of comforting, yet stylish recycled men’s clothing and recycled women’s clothing, we’ve got plenty of second-hand styles that will have your layering game on point, all pumpkin season long.

Whether you’re after woollen skirts, tights and leather boots or trucker jackets, frayed-edge jeans and trainers, we’ve got sustainable fashion to suit everyone.

Ready to plan your autumn wardrobe?

Here are the biggest autumn trends you need to look out for…

1. Soft layering

We’ve all become quite accustomed to our loungewear over the last 18 months, well this layering trend means you don’t need to let go of your reliance on comfort. Simply layer up your favourite night out wear with cosy ladies’ knitwear underneath or over the top for a comfortable and versatile styling option. We’re absolutely loving earthy and pastel colours!

2. Mega knits

As always, autumn is all about the knits. This year, however, it’s stepping up a notch – literally the bigger the better. XXL jumpers, endless layers and cosy accessories are sure to be what everyones talking about as we head for an evening out during those chilled months. Why not try pairing a jumper dress or oversized knitwear with some chunky tights.

3. We’re ‘out out’

After spending the majority of our social life through a screen last year we’re all about the party vibes this season. We’re talking sequins, glitter, shimmers and bright colours that let you embrace all that you are. It’s time to go all out with wearing, well whatever you like…

4. Turn up the saturation

Unlike last season where it was all about clashing shades, it’s all about keeping your look monosyllabic. If you’ve got your eyes on a zesty green blazer then you may want to consider going bold with a whole outfit of full vibrant colour – get the zesty green ladies’ trousers, bag and recycled shoes too!

5. Cut it out

The popular fashion trend of cut-out pieces is continuing to thrive as we head into autumn. Great news for us as we’ve got a whole selection of affordable, recycled clothing ready for you to get creative with. Why not browse our men’s recycled clothing and ladies’ recycling clothing collections and find something you could get snip happy with, for a completely unique and on-trend style.

6. Going green

As well as going green with us, we recommend going granny-smith green when it comes to choosing your colour palette this season. Whether it’s a grass green jacket, emerald jumper or some khaki trousers, it’s the hue everyone wants to be seen wearing in the coming months.

7. Shirting

It’s time to inject some corporate vibes into your wardrobe this season by layering with one of our ladies shirts. Take your favourite crisp white shirt and wear it beneath your dresses. Don’t worry this can work with a multitude of styles from strapless, v-neck, strappy or round-neck. A great way to get use out of one item of clothing – which we’re all for here at White Rose!

8. Punchy puffers

The puffer jacket will be making a comeback this autumn/winter. The more dramatic, the better!
We’re loving bright colours and unique shapes to give your style a unique edge as you crunch amongst the copper leaves while out pumpkin picking.

9. Fancy florals

Let’s face it, florals are never going out of fashion. Dominating our wardrobes for over a decade, flouncy French florals are big big news this autumn. We’re loving bold vibrant prints splashed across outwear, knitwear and even jeans.

10. Salt of the earth

If vibrant, punchy colours aren’t your thing. Don’t stress, subdued, low-key earthy shades are also amongst the palettes set to turn up the heat this season. Mix your shades and swap your whites and creams for moodier browns instead.
