01 Nov Autumn Elegance: Shirts of the Season
As the crisp autumn breeze ushers in a shift in fashion, it’s time for you to revamp your wardrobes with shirts that embrace the essence of the season. Whether you’re strolling through golden-hued parks or sipping on a hot coffee at a bustling cafe, a well-chosen autumnal shirt can be the defining element of your seasonal style. From cosy flannels overshirts to a classic denim-look, discovering the ideal autumn shirt can transform your look and elevate your seasonal wardrobe. Here’s our comprehensive guide on finding the perfect autumn shirt, coupled with some expert styling tips to help you navigate the season effortlessly.
Master the patterns
The fusion of patterns and solids in shirts can create a powerful style statement, reflecting both sophistication and individuality. Achieving a balanced and polished look begins with understanding colour coordination and pattern coherence. A solid base serves as the anchor, allowing for experimentation with various patterns, such as stripes, checks, or intricate motifs.
Here’s some examples of how it’s done.
To master the art of combining patterns and solids, start by selecting a patterned shirt that complements your skin tone and personal style. Next, consider incorporating solid colour pairings like ties, pocket squares, or layering a jacket. To avoid overwhelming the ensemble, opt for complementary hues and patterns that share a common colour palette or theme.

Find your Fit
Choosing your shirt fit can make or break your outfit. It’s crucial to prioritise comfort without compromising style. Focus on the shoulder seam aligning with the edge of your shoulders, the sleeves ending just past the wrist bone, and a collar that allows two fingers to fit snugly. You should also make sure that your shirt length isn’t too long.
A proper shirt fit accentuates your physique, exudes professionalism, and fosters comfort. It bolsters your confidence and creates a polished, put-together look that leaves a lasting impression. We offer tailoring services at all of our stores to make certain of your perfect fit.
Styling Tips and accessories
When styling accessories for autumn, consider complementing the hues with warm-toned scarves or knit ties for an extra layer of texture. Pairing with a classic leather belt can add a rustic touch, while a timeless watch enhances sophistication. Experiment with complementary pocket squares or stylish cufflinks for a refined look. Don’t overlook the power of seasonal elements like a cosy beanie with your flannel ensemble or a textured coat layered over your shirt, which can elevate your outfit. Dark jeans or trousers add an extra autumnal flair and tie in well with seasonal tones. Choose accessories that echo autumn’s warmth and accentuate your individual style.

Taking care of your new shirt
To ensure longevity, properly care for a shirt by following key steps. Always check the label for washing instructions, preferably opting for a gentle cycle and cold water. Use a mild detergent and avoid bleach. Promptly remove from the washer to prevent wrinkles and air-dry to preserve fabric integrity. Iron shirts inside-out on appropriate heat settings, particularly for delicate materials. Avoid over-washing to retain colour vibrancy and shape. Consider professional dry cleaning for intricate designs. Store folded or hung in a cool, dry place to prevent moisture and mildew. Regular maintenance guarantees a polished, long-lasting wardrobe staple.
