With the exception of Anna Della Russo , few adopt new season trends in the manner they were presented. If you don’t live with a camera lens trained on you at all times, the bi-annual aesthetic change centres most usefully on building your cache of beautiful pieces.

You might like to bring a slice of Marc Jacobs’ polka dots to the boardroom, some Chloe snake print and a 40s Miu Miu dress to your eveningwear, or add a fluffy coat to your winter stash. Find some tailored trousers that play with colour and texture, don’t save an Argyll  knit for weekends, it works brilliantly with wool trousers and a pencil skirt. And fetish ? How about some studding on an otherwise conservative item like this jumper from Maje? 

This edit is designed to offer the season’s IT items in a way that can infiltrate and update what you already have. Happy deliberating...
