he summer has been balmy, but now there’s a chill in the air
that signals a new season – and there’s nothing like that ‘back
to school’ feeling (even if it’s just a hangover from our own
childhoods) to prompt new beginnings and inspire change.
This issue is dedicated to both and jam-packed with autumn trends and
exciting ideas to help us re-energise all areas of our lives. We start on page
12, with five key trends to invest in (or unearth from our wardrobes) for the
season ahead. In the spirit of buying less, but buying better, it’s not always
about splashing out on new clothes; it could be styling those we already own
differently – as seen in Colour Equations on page 20 – or even buying one
accessory to instantly update everything else, such as the silk ties and neck
scarves on page 23. There’s an argument for being timeless over trendsetting
anyway – in both fashion and beauty – and it’s a philosophy Hannah Betts
debates in Stick Or Twist on page 88.
We forge into the new season in our Living section, too, where we present
the latest texture trends – from lacquer to lived-in leather – on page 106, and
food writer and fruit farmer James Rich shares the autumn recipes inspired
by his family’s orchard on page 112.
