Check MATE • Tartan and plaid return with two different ways to wear them. First, try the prim and proper approach, pairing long-line kilts and neat headscarves, as seen at Burberry. Or embrace your inner punk with short, brash patterns packed with attitude, taking inspiration from the collections of Louis Vuitton, Jawara Alleyne and Vivienne Westwood. It’s your move.

Pearl of WISDOM • Forget everything you think you know about wearing pearls. This autumn/winter, granny’s favourite necklace gets revamped – now, pearls come oversized and imbued with a larger-than-life energy. Dilara Fındıkoğlu and Vaquera chose lengths of pearls that fell to just above the floor, while Chanel’s came in super-sized proportions, worn cross-body. The styling trick to remember: it’s all about contrast. Pearls really pair best with your favourite jeans.

CHARM offensive • When it comes to accessorising this season, take your cues from the Celine catwalk, where new artistic director Michael Rider cemented statement jewellery adorned with charms as autumn’s must-have. Go all-out and layer up styles over polished Parisian tailoring to add a touch of je ne sais quoi to the look.

Gilded AGE • For understated everyday elegance, turn to Dior’s intricately crafted My Dior fine-jewellery collection. Designed by Victoire de Castellane, the artistic director of Dior Joaillerie, the line reimagines the house’s signature Cannage motif — which is inspired by the caning on the Napoleon III-style chairs that Monsieur Dior used to seat guests at his early fashion shows. In a shiny new context, this pattern instantly elevates even the simplest of outfits.
