Daily Mail journalists select and curate the products that feature on our site. Forget slipping on a pelmet or a flimsy cotton prairie style—this autumn’s offering is plush with rich wool, thick dark denim, and soft luxe suede, all of which will keep you toasty as the mercury dips.
From the return of knitted skirts to denim and suede, here are the three new-season styles to slip into now.
### KNITTED
Consider A-line jumper skirts as the elegant alternative to wearing your long johns outside. That’s right—woollies that reach almost to your ankles are finally in. If you really feel the cold, pair yours with a matching knit or cardigan. My favourite cosy oxblood co-ord comes from Jigsaw.
Or contrast the soft slack look of wool by tucking a cotton long-sleeved top or a white sharp-collared shirt into the waistband.
The best tip to zhuzh up a slouchy look for party season? Big bling.
### DENIM
You likely have one of these tucked in a drawer already. But if it’s a straight-cut style in a light faded wash, forget it—this look will only age you.
The most flattering versions this season come in dark indigo-blue hues, featuring panels, pleats, and Western-inspired yoke waistbands for a flourish of interest. Chunky knitwear, thermal polo necks, shirting, and your finest sparkly top will all team nicely with these denim styles.
### SUEDE
This is the trending fabric of the moment. The big brown suede takeover (BBST) has already dominated the bag, jacket, and shoe departments on the high street—and now it has come for your skirt.
Real or faux styles in warm neutral tones will look and feel effortlessly luxurious. Plus, suede is a fabric that skims over lumps and bumps rather than clinging. If you already like leather, make this your next wardrobe update.
### PENCIL
You may be thinking, “The 80s called, they want their skirt back!” But today’s pencils, as seen on the catwalks of Prada and Saint Laurent, are far more forgiving than the uncomfortable office-ready styles of the past.
There’s no need to take short, stunted steps because these skirts are stretchy and column-shaped rather than tapered, with vents for freer movement. The trending length is mid-shin or below the knee, rather than above it.
And obviously, forget stilettos—they’ve long been declared dead in fashion circles. A knee-high boot that cuts under the hem of the skirt will make you look just as long and sleek.
### KILTS
Pleated, buckle-waisted kilts are big again this season. The English-Bulgarian label Chopova Lowena ignited fashion’s Highland fling with this silhouette at London Fashion Week, and it’s now a sartorial staple for autumn.
Gen Z wear theirs ultra-short, but midi and maxi lengths are the sweet spot and will prevent you from looking school-girlish.
