Green gauge

Forest green is a sumptuous alternative to black, navy and camel if your wardrobe is already heaving with neutral outfits. Our twill trouser suit with wrap-style fastening will add a designer-worthy spin to blustery autumn looks, whether or not you wish to accessorise with a pumpkin-spice latte in hand. Wear with this season's most-wanted burgundy handbag for contrast (ours is made with an array of interior pockets meaning there's room to securely stash your everyday essentials). A hint of patent court shoes peeking out at the hem adds a subtly sophisticated note.

In the navy

A double-breasted navy trouser suit is a timeless wardrobe investment that you'll reach for time and time again. With its sharp peak lapels, two flap pockets and a welt pocket at the chest, the suit blazer showcases an array of considered design details. The tailored trousers come in three leg lengths and are crafted from a wool blend for a warm and luxurious feel. Designed in a striking wide-leg silhouette for a flattering look, they'll ensure your style is on-point all autumn, whether you choose to dress them up with pointed court shoes for the office or down with retro-style trainers on runaround days.

Pleats, please

Make a subtle statement with fashion's latest obsession: the barrel leg. Taking its style cues from trouser styles popular in the 1930s and 1940s, this ultra wide-leg silhouette features a high waistband with pleats to add volume to your stride. Balance proportions with a tucked-in tee (opt for sequins if you're headed out somewhere fancy) and the co-ordinating single-breasted blazer to complete the suit.

Hell for leather

Leather is set to have a major moment this autumn, injecting subtle sophistication into everyday outfits. Think real leather is too edgy for workwear? Think again. Butter-soft tailored leather pieces in burgundy, khaki, brown, and grey will be high on the agenda for smart settings this season. Teamed with plush knits and crisp cotton shirts to play with texture. If you're making your first leather tailoring investment, opt for Autograph's timeless black A-line midi skirt for maximum versatility. Style with knee-high leather boots to keep the chill at bay and add a longline trench coat over the top for a satisfying swish.
