Bella takes us through three essential mouterwear styles for Autumn, from the practical workwear jacket to the technical down jacket and the classic overcoat. Each brings something different to an autumn wardrobe, with plenty of ways to make them your own.
Originally designed for durability and practicality, the workwear jacket has become a mainstay of modern menswear. Its characteristic boxy fit allows for ease of movement and makes it ideal for layering as the temperature drops.
One of our standout styles this season comes from Danton. With its cleaner lines and smarter finish, it offers a refined take on the traditional workwear jacket. Wear it with relaxed denim, a heavyweight sweatshirt or a knitted polo for an everyday look that works throughout Autumn.
The Workwear Jacket
A cold-weather essential, the down jacket has its roots in outdoor exploration and performance clothing. Today, it sits comfortably between technical outerwear and everyday menswear, with styles ranging from lightweight, packable jackets to more substantial padded designs.
This season, we have a strong selection from Patagonia, Taion and Goldwin. For a more technical look, opt for a sporty, lightweight style from Taion or Goldwin. Alternatively, Patagonia’s collared down jackets offer a slightly smarter approach to insulated outerwear. We’re particularly drawn to Patagonia’s use of recycled down in selected styles.
Wear yours with straight-leg trousers and trail-inspired footwear, or layer it over knitwear and relaxed tailoring for a more considered approach to everyday dressing.
View The Down Coat Collection
Few pieces of outerwear are as enduring as the overcoat. Traditionally associated with tailoring, its longer silhouette and clean lines make it an equally strong option for contemporary casual dressing.
This season, we have an excellent selection from Universal Works, Kaptain Sunshine and more, with styles that range from classic and refined to more relaxed interpretations of the traditional coat.
While an overcoat works naturally with tailoring, we prefer to take a less formal approach. Try wearing yours over a hoodie, with relaxed trousers and trainers, for an interesting contrast between classic outerwear and everyday essentials.
