Every autumn, there’s one high-street drop the You Mag team sit, scroll through, turn to each other and simultaneously say: ‘I want it all.’ This autumn, it’s ARKET’s new collection.The Scandi brand has perfected the art of workwear that doesn’t feel at all stuffy, and it’s autumn drop– elevated, minimalist and full of crisp, chic lines– is hands down the most cohesive high-street campaign we’ve seen in years.
It’s fitting, given that searches for “capsule wardrobe” and “quiet luxury” are surging again, that Arket has revised the basic staples it gained fame for.Think clean lines, neutral tones and timeless tailoring: the kind of pieces that, even after a rainy autumn commute and with a puffer coat chucked over, make you look like you’ve 100% got your life, and wardrobe, together.
The Open-Neck Blazer in black is the standout: softly tailored with a cool boatneck neckline that providesjust enough edge to work from a Monday meeting to Friday drinks at a swanky bar. If you’re a fan of the beige colourway, pair with the Elastic-Waist Tailored Trousers in dark grey for that effortless, put-together, barrel silhouette the Scandis do best.
If you’re upgrading current nine-to-five staples, we’re obsessed with the checkered Relaxed Blazer, cut impeccably and guaranteed to make anything underneath look instantly more expensive. Add the Glossy Leather Ankle Boots and you’ve nailed the formula: minimalist, confident and quietly luxe. Succession might well be over, but quiet luxury lives on.
The beauty of shopping this collection is its simplicity: while the pieces are a little pricier, they’re designed to be worn on repeat and mixed endlessly for that polished, Scandinavian look. Pick a few staple pieces to mix and match, and you’ll get your money’s worth in about a week (it’s girl math, duh).
Scroll on for our edit of the best pieces to build a stylish– and hardworking– autumn wardrobe.
