What's the look?Reworking military and naval uniforms has

long been a favourite trick of designers, but

for autumn 09 they have gone very literal. The

result is something to be reckoned with, with

elegant naval frock coats, lace-up boots and

bold button detailing.

How to do itA sharp-as-a-tack coat or jacket is the pivotal

item in the army and navy look, worn over

skinny jeans and knee boots. Gold-buttoned

gloves are a hard-working accessory.

SHARP TAILORINGWhat's the look?There’s always a place for beautifully

tailored shirts, trousers and jackets,

and this season it’s centre stage. Take

charge in a don’t-mess-with-me suit.

How to do itA quality black jacket and trousers are

workplace style essentials – after that

it’s about putting your own stamp on

the look. Go androgynous with braces

or a waistcoat, or put a feminine twist

on tailoring in a pleated blouse. Add

an ankle boot for a hint of sex appeal.

What's the look?Don’t let the schoolgirl theme fool you:

whatever your age, you can make this

look suitably grown-up. Style it to be

sophisticated enough for the office but

sexy enough for a post-work drink.

How to do itLayer cute cardigans and soft jumpers over a

flirty skirt, and add heeled brogues to complete

the look. To understate it wear opaque tights,

but if you’re feeling daring, knee socks.

What's the look?Autumn’s new colour family includes

blush pink, warm red and dusky

purple. It’s an ultra-feminine look-at-

me palette, and designers didn’t shy

away from top-to-toe colour.

How to do itThe beauty of this trend is the

freedom you have to make it your

own. Choose shades that flatter your

complexion and work for your

wardrobe. Go all-out in a violet dress,

or enhance a low-key outfit with berry

accents: try sumptuous cherry knee

boots or pretty purple pumps.

F orget burly lumberjacks. Recently the check has been championed by

the painfully cool offspring of rock stars, which has made it an intimidating trend for those of us who have jobs instead of trust funds. But look again: this season the look is all grown-up, and couldn’t be easier to wear. Be classic but on-trend in a checked shirt with skinny jeans, or pair a suit with tartan court shoes for a work look that’s fashion-forward, not flashy.

It’s loud, it’s proud, and it’s scary to wear. Not any more...

SARAH KEEPS

HEELS IN HER

DAY BAG TO

SLIP ON FOR

MEETINGS

“My work life varies hugely.

Sometimes I’m with a client

knocking out a creative brief,

sometimes I’m surrounded by millions of

shoes on a shoot, sometimes I’m at home

writing. I’ve got pieces that multi-task (a

denim mini-dress is a current favourite),

and versatile items I’ll never regret splashing

out on – like my beige mac. I normally wear

flats to run around to meetings but I always

keep a good pair of heels in my big day bag

(current favourites are patent orange).

I used to dress up more for appointments

but the older I get, the more I just want to

be me. When I’m shooting overseas in the

heat I’ve got a complete wardrobe I keep

in a case ready to go: tees, cropped jersey

trousers and a couple of cute dresses for

evening. Most of my closet has a utilitarian

look as I love anything that riffs on a

uniform. I’d wear the Brownie frock of my

youth if I thought I could get away with it –

complete with purse belt.”

Celebrity stylist Sarah Wharton reveals her clever closet secrets

HOW DO YOU DO THIS TREND’S LAYERED-UP LOOK IF YOU’RE NOT MODEL-SIZED? WE MAKE IT EASY

The fashion houses of Burberry,

Anna Sui and Etro championed

this opulent folkloric look, but

designers don’t always think

about the translation from

catwalk model to real woman.

Layering up can add bulk if

it’s not done well. So whether

you’ve got curves, no curves

at all or a narrow torso with

wider hips, we show you how

the season’s big trend can look

fabulous on you. For more figure

flattering styles to suit every

shape up to size 34 just log onto

to Laredoute.co.uk and check

out our Plus Size collection.

your decade

EXPERIMENTAL 20’sHATTIE HUMPHREYS, 26, Manchester Three years after university, writer Hattie’s staple wardrobe hadn’t graduated beyond her graduation. “I feel like I haven’t left my student days behind,” she explains. “I’d love to look more grown-up, but I don’t want to be lamb dressed as mutton.” Stylist Debby Barry took the matter in hand, pairing wet-look leggings with a short blazer and studded shoeboots for a sophisticated grunge-luxe twist on the nautical trend. Initially, Hattie had doubts about the leggings: “I liked them on other girls but I wasn’t sure they’d suit me.” It was a bold move, but it worked. “I love them!” says the new body-con convert. “They’re really fun. I’d definitely wear them for a night out.” “In your twenties, fashion should be about experimenting,” says Debby. “Don’t worry about making mistakes.”

WET-LOOK LEggingsThe leggings and studded shoe-boots add instant rock-chick glamour, keeping the jacket looking young and edgy.Leggings £17 795.1957

3 women, 3 ages, 1 trend: the La Redoute style challengeNautical was one of the major stories on the autumn 09 catwalks. double-breasted silhouettes were streamlined with belted blazers (Hermès) and skinny cigarette pants (Lagerfeld), all set off with button detailing and reams of gold chains. The knack to this trend is knowing how to put your own spin on it. With the help of our stylist, we asked three women of different ages to prove just how easy it can be to dress for your decade… nautical-style.

“i didn’t think the naval trend could look so smart!”Deepa, 31, Surrey

MiLitARY CoAt Deepa couldn’t get enough of this statement coat, with its asymmetric detailing, high collar and bold metallic buttons. She’s hit the nail on the head in a professional look that’s fashionable – but definitely not frivolous.Coat £135 770.2582Skirt £19 921.5425

“i love this look. it makes me

Sammie, 41,London

DYNAMIC 30’sDEEPA THAkkER, 31, Surrey A diary crammed full of client meetings dictates marketing manager Deepa’s style, and has led her down the safe path of a corporate wardrobe. “I thought this nautical trend might be too casual for me,” she explains. “Dressing in a classic way seems smarter.” Stylist Debby was keen to complement Deepa’s existing wardrobe and show how a single new piece can update a look: “By the time most women hit their thirties, they’re more confident with their individual style. They want to buy investment pieces.” She chose a trophy coat for Deepa. “A statement military coat is bang-on-trend, and this one marries the button detail of Armani with the asymmetric hems of Comme des Garçons.” Deepa’s verdict? “I adore it! It’s on-trend yet smart. The cut, the material – I love it all!”

SOPHISTICATED 40’sSAMMIE McCARTHY, 41, London Production controller and yummy-mummy Sammie rarely ventured out of her jeans and trainers, choosing function over fashion. “Lots of women in their forties get into a style rut,” says Debby. “They think that trends are for teenagers, but I wanted to show Sammie that she can introduce quirky items into her wardrobe without looking like a fashion victim.” Sammie had reservations. “I wasn’t keen on the nautical look,” she explains. “I’d been there and done it 15 years ago and felt it was too young for me.” But the combination of micro-jacket and sheer striped blouse convinced her that interpretation is key to dressing for your decade: “I feel confident and stylish – I’m not ruling anything out now!”

AUTUMN’S USUAL failsafe

tone – black, black, black – is

getting a run for its money this

season. It seems that designers

have reacted to the gloomy

global markets by injecting a

large dollop of hopefulness

through their choice of palettes,

and the catwalks were a

carnival of colour. “Bright jewel

tones are making a comeback

with some neon and acid

shades thrown into the mix,”

explains Ali Hall, editor of

shopping magazine Look. She

encourages us all to try to look

on the bright side of life this

season: “Clashing colours have

been a huge hit with designers

so test out contrasting shades

you’ve never tried before.

Red was a catwalk favourite,

with black and red proving

to be the statement colour

combo. Neutrals such as grey

have style longevity and act

as a simple blank canvas, so

start with a muted base, then

experiment with brighter shades

to complement it.”

So you don’t have to go full-on

technicolour from head to toe.

If you’re nervous of colour

blocking, take style notes from

Laura Fantacci, shopping editor

at Red magazine: “Grey is the

new navy and any shade of

it, from lighter dusty hues to

rich smokey ones, works with

just about every colour of the

rainbow – try burnt colours like

orange, yellow and aubergine.”

This season La Redoute is hot

on the heels of the designers

with its colourful mix-and-match

knit jumper dresses, V-necks

and jersey tops will team easily

with more muted tones of grey

and black, and you don’t need

bags of confidence to pull them

off. Shrinking violets can get

a hit of colour into their winter

wardrobe with the collection’s

eye-popping accessories –

hats, scarves, court shoes and

ballet pumps. Look out for our

surefire winner of the collection:

the suede slouch bag (see p26).

Every piece in the line comes

in every shade, including royal

blue, vibrant purple, canary

yellow and pillar-box red.

After last winter’s gothic

obsession this autumn’s riot of

colour is sure to give us all a lift.

Just take heed from the grande

dame of fashion herself, Coco

Chanel, who said it best when

she insisted: “The best colour in

the world is the one that looks

good on you!”

ASK US ANYTHINGFoolproof advice for fret-free fashion

QI love the

vintage look but I

don’t have time to

trawl through

charity shops – any ideas?

Rachel, Doncaster

A If the lived-in look is

what you’re after, a

brand new T-shirt with

vintage-style imagery can do

the trick just as well. Wear

with a shrunken blazer and

distressed jeans to channel the

rock chick vibe – and a trilby if

you’re feeling extra confident.

Q Dresses aren’t my

thing, but I’ve got a

posh charity do next

month and I need to look

smart. Any other options?

Louise, Newcastle

A A little tuxedo jacket is

the perfect compromise.

Be fashion-forward by

adding harem pants to your

tux-with-a-twist – and always

the highest heels possible.

QHow do I begin

to bring colour

into my mainly

monochrome wardrobe?

Selina, Manchester

AFirst of all, congrats on a

brave step. Head-to-toe

block colour will make

you look taller and slimmer

– but if that’s a bit too bold,

colour-pop accessories are a

super-chic alternative.

QI dread autumn, when

it’s too hot for my

winter coat but too

cold for just a cardie. I don’t

want to buy a lightweight

coat I can only wear for a

month or so... Help!

Sarah, Aberdeen

AWorry not. The catwalks

were invaded by chunky

knits: invest in a knitted

poncho you can wear right

through to early spring. It’s a

luxurious way to stave off the

autumn chill. Choose a neutral

shade for a laidback luxe look,

and make sure the rest of your

silhouette is streamlined.

QMy work involves a lot

of social events, so

I need practical but

stylish footwear – any ideas?

Claire, Cheltenham

AMid-heeled knee-high

boots are your answer.

With a sensible height

comfy enough for boardroom

and bar, they’re fabulous with a

below-the-knee skirt.
