And the luxe loungewear collection is a cut above your Gym King or 11 Degrees leisurewear you’d also wear doing sports. The style is more like Manière De Voir’s premium tracksuits, but the price points are a lot higher, which is a reflection of the significant increase in material and design quality.

Your standard fast fashion brands will often use a cotton/Polyester mix. The superior quality of the Reiss loungewear comes from Cotton-blend fabrication using Viscose or Elastane. And even the like for like 100% cotton T-shirts are far better quality with the soft-touch the brand provide. The Reiss fashion Leisurewear collection also includes cashmere and wool, so it’s no surprise to see prices are higher with quality to last (as long as you pay close attention to the washing instructions).

Both brands aim for the high end of the athleisure market, crossing over from sports luxe to smart casual. MDV tracksuits retail at approx £85, but that is roughly the cost of the Reiss Joggers alone. Their charcoal pinstripe tracksuit would set you back £260 to buy. But Reiss and high quality go together like Calvin Klein and underwear. If you treat it right and wash with care, you will have a capsule piece to last a lifetime.

Who is Reiss?

Reiss are a niche luxury designer brand created in 1971 by David Reiss now owned by Warburg Pincus, an American global private equity firm. Initially a London suit store for men in Bishopsgate, it was the 1980 shop opening in Kings Road that exploded the shop into the public attention. In the late 90’s they knew they need their own clothing brand and took the design inhouse.

It was in 2000 when they took huge strides in the luxe market by expanding into womenswear which was a brave move with their menswear reputation. After a slow start, Reiss took over their flagship Kent House store in Knightsbridge, and rolled out stroes across the country and in Dublin. They worked hard to grow into a respected high-street fashion chain with 160 stores in 15 countries, including Dubai and New York.

The fashion label is known for its strong focus on fabric quality and design, delivering impeccable service in every area of the business. This has garnered a celebrity following including being a firm favourite of the Duchess of Cambridge, Kate Middleton. Stylish Hollywood stars like Tom Hiddlestone and Eddie Redmayne have worn the brand to major events, with Emily Ratajkowski and Kylie Jenner also big fans.

With modern designs in keeping with current trends, perfection comes in the fabric quality of their clothing manufacturing. The Reiss clothing brand sells high-end, contemporary designer clothing, accessories and footwear. The clothing is designed by James Long as a more affordable entry to the designer market, and not considered Fast Fashion.

While these trends might be fierce, you can always put your own interpretation on them to make them more approachable and applicable to your day-to-day life. So, let’s dive into the autumn, fall and winter trends of 2020 so you can start creating the coolest plus size fall outfits.

Dramatic Sleeves

Embellished and puffy sleeves are not a new trend. In fact, they’ve been around for a couple of seasons now, and it looks like they’ll be around for another. Whether your blouse or top of choice is an off the shoulder sweater or a blazer, prioritize tops that have a dramatic or an embellished sleeve or shoulder. If you’re not a fan of puff sleeves, but you still want to partake in this trend, try a blazer or a coat that has dramatic padded shoulders or sleeve embellishments. The great thing about embracing this trend with outerwear is that you can easily remove the garment if you aren’t feeling confident in it.

Fringe

Fringe hemlines were a major hit at New York Fashion Week this year. Fall is really the best time to embrace the fringe because it’s not too cold outside and you can get away with having a more whimsical hem. Fringe dresses were extremely common on the runways, but you can also get creative with other pieces that incorporate fringe like blouses, sleeves or coats. And if you’re looking for a more practical and approachable way to embrace the trend, try accessories that include fringy accents such as a necklace or bracelet. You can also top off any look with a bag that has fringe embellishments.

Gold

It’s going to be a sparkly autumn! From bright gold to muted bronze, shiny garments are stealing the spotlight this season. Wearing a brightly colored gold dress may come off as a little extra, depending on your style, but you can easily offset the dress with a dark-colored duster coat. This will instantly limit the shine, but still ensure that you’re partaking in the gold trend. And, of course, you can embrace gold accents and accessories if you don’t feel like wearing an entire gold getup.

Cardigans

Aren’t cardigans in every fall? Of course, but this year, they are in like never before. While cardigans used to serve as the afterthought to an outfit, they are now the main attraction. From cropped cardigans to long duster cardigans, they should be the star of every fall look. If you consider yourself a cardigan connoisseur, get creative this season and play with different fabrics, materials, patterns and styling techniques.

For example, you could add a statement belt to a chunky cardigan, which will not only flatter your figure, but it will also make the cardigan stand out. On the days where you don’t feel like getting dressed, have a statement cardigan ready in your closet, pair it with some comfortable leggings and then top it off with sleek ankle booties or a heel.

All of the Plaid

Similar to a cardigan, there is no surprise that plaid is the pattern of fall. But this year, the stakes are much higher. Not only is plaid getting it’s time to shine, but it’s taking over. The New York Fashion Week runways displayed tartans, houndstooths and ginghams mixed and matched together within the same outfits. There’s a lot of potential to create a compelling look by mixing the many different types of plaids with Chelsea Boots.

And while mixing and matching patterns might be a little challenging, don’t be afraid to take risks because there really are no rules here. Whatever you feel best in is what looks great on you, and your confidence will reflect that. One way you can make an impact with plaid this season is with an outer coat. If you have a bold plaid coat, you can have on all black underneath and still be making a statement.

Faux Leather Trench Coat

Speaking of outer coats, you’ll also want to keep a faux leather trench coat in your closet. This coat will look extremely chic over any outfit you’re wearing, even an athleisure look. Add light layers underneath your coat to stay cozy and cute. Faux leather trench coats make a statement all on their own!

Ties

Women’s fashion has always taken cues from men’s fashion, and this year it’s no different. However, women may be adding a new and unexpected accessory to their wardrobe. Men’s ties are becoming a huge hit for fall. Pair a chic, faux leather tie with a white button up for a sophisticated and edgy look.

Volume

You know the saying, “Less is more”? Well, this fall, let’s forget about that. Voluminous skirts and blouses were making waves on the runway. While sporting a tutu around town may not be practical, you can partake in the trend by embracing plus size babydoll dresses. Naturally, these dresses and plus size babydoll tops add natural and flattering volume to any look.

All Black Everything

When in doubt, an all black look is the key to looking stylish. And this year, an all black look is extremely trendy. To add some contrast to your all black look, add in faux leather leggings or tops to your wardrobe.

If you love to follow the trends every season, this fall is an extremely exciting time for fashion. We hope you dive into these trends and put your own, fabulous spin on them. If you are looking for plus size clothing brands, check out our guide.

If camouflage and buffalo plaid are new prints you’re just now getting into, we’ve put together a style guide that shows you how to wear these patterns practically and stylishly throughout the rest of the year. If you’ve been embracing buffalo plaid and camouflage for as long as you can remember, there are a few outfit combinations in here that might challenge and give you an entirely new outlook on one of your favorite patterns. Before we get started, you may want to scour your closet for cute plus size clothes to pair with your buffalo plaid and camo pieces.

Buffalo Plaid Styles for Fall

Buffalo plaid outfits are so versatile because you can either style bold pieces or you could wear tiny accents with the pattern to make the look seem cozy. These are our favorite buffalo plaid garments that you can wear with virtually anything.

• Buffalo Plaid Flannel–If you’re a buffalo plaid connoisseur, then you probably already have a buffalo plaid flannel hanging in your closet. This is a staple style for the pattern, and it can be worn with jeans or leggings. The flannel can be fitted or oversized, depending on how you want to style it.
• Buffalo Plaid Skirts–If you love wearing skirts in the fall with tights and a pair of knee-high boots, you will want to have a buffalo plaid skirt on hand. You can opt for white, red or gray buffalo plaid skirts to match your favorite top and boots. Stick to a mini fit for an ultra cute look.
• Buffalo Plaid Coat–Do you like to keep your looks monochromatic or more simple? If so, a great way to spruce up any outfit is by topping it off with a statement coat. You can’t go wrong with buffalo plaid—especially during the colder seasons.

Camouflage Styles for Fall

The camouflage print has evolved over the past couple of years, but we love our camo to act as kind of a neutral. With that being said, you can absolutely wear camo as a statement, too. Here are some of our favorite camouflage styles.

Camouflage Utility Jacket–A camo utility jacket is the perfect casual coat to top off any look. While many utility jackets may come in one color, adding a camo one to your wardrobe will create some emphasis in all of your fall outfits.

Camo Sneakers–If you’re not much of a camo girl, but still want to incorporate the print into your fall wardrobe, opt for some chic camo sneakers. They make a subtle statement, but they aren’t too over the top.

Camouflage Skinny Jeans or Leggings–If you like making a statement with camo, stock your closet with camouflage skinny jeans or leggings. Look for skinny jeans that have a faded or “worn” look for a more on-trend feel.

Camo Shirts–You can always spice up any basic look with a camo top. Whether you’re just wearing black jeans or leggings or your go-to pair of denim, a camouflage shirt or tunic will add emphasis to your look.

Oversized Buffalo Plaid Flannel

Make a statement with an oversized button-down flannel, paired with a plain black crop top and a pair of distressed jeans. This is a laid-back look, but it still has impact. Accessorize with dainty jewelry or ditch the accessories for a more chill vibe.

Faux Leather Leggings with Camo Utility Jacket

Slide into a sleek all-black outfit and top it off with a camouflage utility jacket. Top the look off with a pair of statement sunglasses and black platform sneakers.

Off the Shoulder Buffalo Plaid or Camo Top

Off the shoulder tops and sweaters are so perfect for fall, and they look so cute! You can either style a buffalo plaid or camo sweater with your favorite pair of jeans or leggings for a kicked-back look. You can style the sweater with a French tuck and statement belt or leave it untucked.

Buffalo Plaid Mini Skirt and Knee Highs

Are you a girly girl? Well then this outfit is for you. Try pairing a high-waist buffalo plaid mini skirt with tights and a pair of knee-high boots. You can top off the look with a cropped sweater, a long blazer or a black turtleneck.

Monochromatic Camo Joggers

Running errands all day, but still want to look cute? Take a pair of gray camo joggers, pair them with a sweater or turtleneck and then top this look off with a faux-leather moto jacket. This outfit is incredibly chic and comfortable.

Neutrals Mixed with Buffalo Plaid

If you’re not a huge fan of buffalo plaid, but want to create a cozy fall look, start with a fitted button-up plaid flannel and layer a beige cardigan over the flannel. You can wear leggings or jeans with this outfit.

Chic Camo Cargo Pants

Baggy camo cargo pants are totally in—if you style them right. Pair a fitted black long sleeve or turtleneck with the cargo pants and top off the look with a pair of black sandal heels or ankle booties. If you want to look like the ultimate fashionista, throw on your favorite statement sunglasses. You can also add a duster coat to this outfit if you want the camo pants to be a little more muted.

If you weren’t already excited about buffalo plaid, camo or fall, we hope this style guide has you running to your closet to find looks that will have you looking and feeling cozy. This style guide is just touching the surface of the kinds of outfits you could create with these patterns, so feel free to take risks and wear these prints however you like to!

The camera bag styles by Saint Laurent are a lovely option for evening, as they allow room for all of your essentials for a night out while still having the dainty, ornamental look of an evening bag. Having a shoulder strap can be a lot more convenient than a clutch style at a party where you’ll be standing a lot, too, such as if you’re mingling with drinks (at least, as much as social distancing will allow!). The Lou camera bag is one of the latest Saint Laurent handbags to become a classic choice. It will look good with just about any level of evening, party or formalwear, whether you prefer suits, dresses, or pretty separates like black trousers with a sparkly top. It is available in a choice of colours, but the beige option makes for a nice pale neutral that can stand out a bit more than black while being easier to wear with all of your favourite outfits than a stronger colour.

Black Small Croc Kate Tassel Bag

If you like the glamorous look of croc, then the Kate tassel bag in black crocodile will be a bag you’ll love that will never go out of style – making it a great investment. This bag has the gold YSL monogram logo and a pretty gold tassel detail that gives it a look that stands out just enough to be a pretty addition to your party outfit, without being too busy to wear with prints or dresses with some sparkle. The bag is available in different sizes and also comes in silver detail which can be accessorised with a silver ring. The small version is ideal for evening and will accommodate essentials like your phone and money without giving a bulky look.

Off-White Mini Cassandra Bag

If you like a bag that you can use clutch style or have with a strap, then the Cassandra bag is a great choice, with its small handles and removable strap. The off-white version of this bag is a clean and elegant looking piece that will not only look great with your autumn and winter outfits but can also be a good match for spring and summer party looks, making this a versatile choice to get now and use all year round. The mini size is ideal for evening, though the Cassandra bag is available in larger sizes if you tend to carry more than just evening essentials or want a beautiful bag suitable for all-day events.

Gold Monogramme Envelope Chain Wallet

If you love the luxurious look of gold and want to add some metallic detail to your Christmas party looks, then this wallet style bag with chain shoulder strap is perfect. The smooth gold colour is subtle rather than gaudy and serves as a neutral when it comes to pairing it with your outfits, meaning that it will look great with coloured dresses as well as with black or white. This is a wonderful choice if you want a bag that stands out and yet still retains the iconic look associated with YSL.

These are just four of the best in the latest collection of Saint Laurent bags, but if you want to make the best choice, then it’s a good idea to check out the full range, which includes many more colours and styles, as well as day bags, totes, belt bags and backpacks, in addition to the evening bags listed here.

If you are not a fan of the Saint Laurent brand, then Chanel bags are another option.
