A Ten Piece Autumn Wardrobe That Covers Everything

Autumn dressing gets easier when a small number of pieces layer over each other. These ten cover almost every autumn occasion.

The ten

  1. A faux fur or faux leather jacket, for evenings and weekends.
  2. A belted trench or a wool-look coat, for work and travel.
  3. A chunky knit cardigan, to layer over everything.
  4. A fine knit or turtleneck, which goes under the cardigan or over a slip dress.
  5. Straight or wide leg jeans, the backbone of the weekend.
  6. Tailored pants, which dress the same knits up.
  7. A satin slip dress, worn alone or layered.
  8. A ruched jersey midi, for dinners and occasions.
  9. A matching set, for travel and slow days.
  10. Ankle boots, which finish every one of the above.

How they combine

Knit over slip dress with boots. Cardigan over vest with wide legs. Jacket over midi for dinner. Set under a coat for travel. Ten pieces, most of a month of outfits, with nothing that needs a special occasion to justify it.

Where to look

Everything above sits in the autumn edit, with the layers in knitwear and jackets and coats, and the bases in bottoms and dresses.

Questions people ask

What colors should a capsule be?

Pick two neutrals that suit you, such as black and chocolate or navy and camel, and let every piece work with both.

How many pieces do I actually need?

Ten is enough for most autumns. Add one occasion dress if you have a wedding or a party.

What should I buy first?

The layer you will wear most, usually the jacket or the cardigan.
