Layering
Layered fashion doesn't need to feel performative: it simply needs to meet your needs for the day ahead. This season, fashion's most-watched houses are exploring a myriad of styles that feel curated, personal and collected over time. Seen particularly powerfully at Prada, the 'archaeological layer' trend comprises women's silk shirts paired with masculine, oversized blazers, alongside faded, aged fabrics stacked together. At Miu Miu, protective softness is the order of the day, with key combinations including wool coats and lightweight jackets, women's cardigans crafted from sumptuous cashmere and plush shearling accessories. Texture-on-texture layering has taken the spotlight at houses such as Bottega Veneta and Chanel, where women's waistcoats, wool coats and longline layering tops create depth and dimension. Meanwhile, Louis Vuitton pairs heritage trench coats with shearling-clad designer jackets, while matte fabrics clash with shine and the occasional leather glove adds a playful finishing touch.
