Trend Report: Meet Autumn's Must-Have Accessories

Trend Report: Meet Autumn's Must-Have Accessories

You heard it here first: From headturning jewellery to buzzy bags, these accessory trends are about to be big news.

Statement Totes

The perfect addition to any nine-to-five accessories arsenal, a roomy logostamped shopper fuses practicality with a whole lot of personality.

Knee High Boots

Whether you gravitate towards textured tan or statement silver, one thing’s for certain: knee-high silhouettes are the MVP of the boot world this season.

In the Red

It’s clear: the latest way to wear red is across translucent details that add a sleek new dimension to the primary pigment.

Clockwise from top: Christian Louboutin leather boots, $1,695; 02-8355 5288, Givenchy vinyl heels, $1,300; 02-8197 0420 Poppy Lissiman sunglasses, $125; poppylissiman.com, Charles & Keith synthetic leather, $73; charleskeith.com

Retro Frames

Inject some whimsy into your daywear by slipping on a pair of oversized shades. From round or square to classic cat-eye, there’s a throwback style to suit every face.

Bold Cuffs

Styling is half the equation when it comes to making a sartorial statement, so rethink cuffs (and bangles, too) by slipping them over the top of your sleeves.

Gold Chains

Take your look to the next level by layering with gilded chain-link jewellery—the effect is instantly elevating.

Slingback Heels

Enamoured by their classic femininity, designers are bringing slingback heels into the fashion fold by applying colour, cut-outs and buzzy prints.

Geometric Handbags

This season it’s hip to be square...and triangular and even a cute, little origami-inspired shape. Invest in a bag that forms a left-of-centre structure to feel polished, but far from predictable.

Woven Wonders

No longer just for a stroll along the Riviera, fine-weave leather and hardwarestamped wicker take the traditional technique into wear-anywhere territory.

Artsy Earrings

Achieving a gallery-goer aesthetic is as easy as clipping on a pair of oversized earrings. Simply let resin, glass and beads reign supreme.

Bucket Hats

Topping the headwear charts for another season, the bucket hat is back, but with a ladylike twist. Broader brims and all-weather textures will take you from autumn through to summer days.

Hiking Shoes

Conjure a sense of cool with chunky lace-up footwear that’s built to walk up more than mountains— comfort guaranteed.

Check It Out

If there’s one pattern worth going mad for, it’s plaid. The motif is forever in favour, and despite its time-honoured status, is unmatched in its ability to make outfit extras pop.
