When the nights get longer and the days get colder, it can be difficult to put together outfits which feel easy and comfortable without sacrificing on style. Often, it's tempting to just wear as many layers as possible and hope for the best, so what we all really need is a collection of great separates, stand-out coats and effortless dresses that we can put out without even thinking about it.
Thank goodness, then, for GANT's new season offering, which will give us all just that. And then some. From oversized rugby shirts you'll want to wear with jeans on frosty weekends to beautiful, timeless coats that will last forever, this is one of the best autumn/winter collections you'll find.
This is why Grazia's own Jane McFarland has picked her very favourite pieces to show you exactly why GANT's leading the way this season. Not only are the clothes so good, the brand has just opened a snazzy new store in the middle of London's exciting new shopping haven in Battersea, cementing it as one of the leading fashion destinations at the moment.
The very best thing about all of Jane's choices is that they are versatile and made-to-last, providing the staples of your wardrobe that you can wear from now until forever. Slim-fit Western shirts, perfectly-oversized varsity jackets, luxe maxi dresses and classic, slouchy tailoring are just some of the highlights here – all items that you'll end up reaching for again and again.
Watch Jane explain exactly what she's chosen from GANT this season and why in the video above and shop along with her – it couldn't be easier to develop a flawless new wardrobe that will stand the test of time. Consider this an early Christmas present.
