Going into the new season, I wanted all the goss on which pieces she has her eyes on for autumn—knowing full well I’d probably add them straight onto my own wish list too, as well as her top tips for creating the most hard-working autumn/winter wardrobe. “My go-to must-haves are a trench coat, black penny loafers and a sturdy umbrella!” She told me. “I try to be more sustainable by mostly wearing what I already own, but there are a few new AW22 trends I’ve got my eye on, like the return of corduroy and velvet in more sophisticated forms—think waistcoats and wide-leg trousers. I’ll also be trying out XL silhouettes which I always think is an easy way to make classics look fresh.”
As for outfit ideas to wear right now, Bathgate says, “I find this time of year the hardest to get dressed for, but also the most fun because you can experiment with layers. A sweater vest always ends up being my most worn piece because it can be layered over a T-shirt or worn on its own. I also love a cropped shacket when the temperatures still hover around the high teens—it’s just enough coverage without making you too hot. As it gets colder, often I can get stuck in a rut of jumper after jumper, but this year I’ll be wearing more turtlenecks under half buttoned shirts which manages to feel a bit fresher.”
