Step in, your modern layering masterclass is about to start…

Let’s begin with a capsule of essential-yet-stylish base layers to keep you warm as temperatures cool. Our in-house label Iris & Ink’s FW21 Considered Collection offers hero pieces made from more considered materials and processes — the kind of premium-quality classics you’ll hold onto for years and years. From there you can elevate your wardrobe foundations with more fashion-forward staples from the likes of Rejina Pyo, Maison Margiela and many more. The key to wrapping up stylishly is to experiment with color, pattern and silhouettes. Soft, neutral-toned jackets and separates are styled with a welcome level of comfort and ease by layering louche cardigans, hoodies and turtlenecks under structured tailoring. It’s important to stay warm in the cold by reaching for cozy textures, like shearling and ribbed knits, but make sure to add interest with patterned accents and contrasting materials. Practical, playful and polished should be the finished look.
