The traditional winter dark colours along with stylish metal buttons and neat shoulder epaulettes has combined to create some of the most stunning designs of the season. Elaborate rich fabrics are a must have for the season with the Rich & Opulent theme which works well on shirts and dresses.

Another theme is the checks and plaids Town & Country theme which is based on the strong British heritage of neat ‘hacking’ jackets, pencil skirts, trousers, shift dresses and coats that have been designed with colours of winter greens, dark chocolate and burnt orange. The sexy theme for women from the Autumn/Winter collection is The Mistress – Leather & Lace. Notable dresses are those from the ‘Star’ and ‘Diamond’ collections by Julien Macdonald which possesses sheer panels, lace details, exposed zips and peephole details, all designed to give a sexy feel.

Malaysia’s men can stand out this Autumn/Winter season by updating their look with the nautical themed Cruel Sea which carries a range of stylish garments such as hooded smock jackets.
