“Here at STYLE we not only love the new and fabulous but those classics that never seem to disappear,” says Editor-in-chief Michael McHugh, of the mix of timeless and new that awaits this season.
“A white shirt for the new season is certainly that. Taking inspiration from the ’80s, to themes of metallic, fringing and pleats, whether you are a minimalist or a maximalist, it would be fair to say this season there is a dress code for everyone and every imaginable style.”
In the new issue we’re cherry-picking the very best, so you can embrace what suits you.
Cover star Jessica Chastain
Talented actor Jessica Chastain is our autumn cover star.
In her latest film, ‘Dreams’, Jessica Chastain plays a wealthy San Francisco philanthropist who falls for a young Mexican ballet dancer. In our interview, she shares the inspirations and passions that define her career and how her own wardrobe informed her role in ‘Dreams’, on which she also served as an executive producer.
Autumn fashion and beauty picks
In The Edit, we celebrate this season’s rich mocha tones alongside the latest in fashion, handbags, watches, jewellery and beauty. Discover new store and restaurant openings, stunning furniture, and must-see exhibitions.
Our lead fashion editorial lines up the big looks of the season for styling inspiration, but if a meander outdoors is also on the cards this season, the ‘Country Life’ fashion editorial will serve all the outfit inspiration you need. Dior’s menswear collection offers a fresh take too.
A focus on accessories includes a face off between some of the most covetable ‘must-know’ handbags of the season from Gucci and Dior, as well a stunning new watch addition to the timepiece scene.
The autumn beauty edit again saves time and effort with the best makeup, skincare, hair and fragrance products to know about right now and moving through the cooler season.
International interior style
In design, we explore two stunning homes, a chic Paris apartment and a striking Dublin renovation.
In Paris, Designer Kelly Boukobza was given carte blanche to revamp an apartment on Paris’ Right Bank, seen on our Design cover. The results, all chic minimalism with smartly-selected art and marble finishes, has to be seen to be believed.
Blending two houses into one with a fabulous, long light-filled lounge joining them is feat of creativity in a Dublin home that uses unexpected swathes of colour to beautiful effect.
In further design features, meet a pilowy dream of a sofa, greet the return of striped wallpaper with colourful accents and explore the top trends coming through from the influential Paris Déco Off design and decor showcase.
Endless inspiration found in Florence
In our concierge section, we wander the streets of Florence, taking you on a tour of the best spots to whet your appetite for a trip or simply introduce you to the inspiring Italian city.
Florence is a city of endless allure, where craftsmanship and ingenuity thrive. From world-class art galleries and designer labels to luxurious hotels and superb cuisine, we reveal our favourite places to eat, shop, meet the locals and enjoy la dolce vita.
