5 Things Everyone in London Will Be Wearing This Fall

Per Ranson, burgundy has infiltrated the streets of London for fall like never before. “Whether it’s your trench coat, your basic tops or even your boots, the wine-colored hue has become an all-time favorite,” she says. “Bags and nail polish are also key when considering this color. It oozes luxury while giving a polished finish to any look—but it’s also, quite simply, a fun way to introduce a pop of color to our typical autumn attire.”

Yes, this particularly shade usually carries a utilitarian vibe, but for fall, Ranson says she’s seeing nearly everyone adopt it—for everyday trousers, but also as the hue of choice for sweaters and knits. But it’s the range of the color palette that makes it such a standout, she claims: “Londoners are wearing it in shades of olive, but dark khaki, too. The trendsetters on the streets are also opting for a full tonal look from head-to-toe.” (One bonus, she adds, is that khaki is such a workhorse of a neutral that it pretty much works with anything already in your closet and is an easy hue to fit into your capsule wardrobe.)

We already know the barrel jean has been making waves stateside for fall, but Ranson confirms: The denim silhouette is also making a big splash across the pond. “With its slim ankle and baggy knee, it gives the perfect combination of relaxed yet sleek. It’s also the perfect style to take from day to night.” One additional note on the denim front: Darker denim is also very much in for fall. “It’s time to go a few shades darker—think indigo—for your jeans,” Ranson says.

Londoners love any accessory that adds a touch of polish and, for fall, a belt is it. “Elevating your look with a belt, whether that’s a classic shape with your jeans or an oversize style around your coat or outerwear, is a must,” Ranson says.

Typically tagged to summer, Ranson says the trend has officially extended into fall. “With pastel tones and suede boots and jackets, we are seeing a lot of floaty sleeves and a more playful approach to daytime fashion right now,” she explains. How so? Sheer dresses, fringe and romantic ruffles are all the rage right now in London—and it’s become an easy way to infuse more fun into fall.
