Since its 2016 inception, Octobre Éditions has quietly become a go-to for men who want wardrobe staples that marry Parisian refinement with work-wear durability. From workshops in Sézane and the Parisian studio behind the label, the brand focuses on premium fabrics, intelligent cuts, and colours that stay relevant season after season.(Sézane) This autumn, as the air chills and layering becomes essential, here are five standout pieces from Octobre that will define your fall rotation.
Octobre Éditions: Top 5 Autumn Picks
1. Hugh Coat in Navy
When temperatures drop and overcoats become armour, the Hugh Coat in deep navy is your tactical move. Structured yet relaxed, it’s perfect for both boardroom meetings and casual weekend strolls. Think heavy wools or sturdy blends, this coat becomes the polished final layer over lighter knits or jackets.
2. Cedro Jacket in Beige
Autumn neutrals are all about contrast: the Cedro Jacket in a clean beige represents that contrast done right. It bridges the gap between eras, 1970s outerwear meets modern tailoring. Use it over jeans and a tee or atop shirt layers; its warmer tones work beautifully against moody pavement and falling leaves.
3. Nova Sweater in Multicoloured
Bold can still be wearable. The Nova Sweater’s riot of muted tones—rusts, olive, amber, subtle hints of ochre, makes it a versatile layered piece. Throw it over a collared shirt at the neckline, or let it stand as the focal point under a neutral topcoat. Comfort meets visual interest, a win in chilly weather. Octobre’s knitwear offerings in merino and wool get high praise for both texture and colour impact.
4. Astorn Sweater in Khaki-Beige
If the Bold Nova is your weekend mood, the Astorn leans quiet luxury. Khaki-beige tones are classic, delivering an earthy, grounded energy. Ideal for office casual, this could be your go-to under a blazer or paired with straight-leg trousers. It works with rugged boots yet easily dresses up.
5. Lellan Shirt in Dark Green
Shirts in autumn are the foundation. The dark green Lellan Shirt nods to military and field styles without trying too hard. Under cardigans, over tees, or worn solo, its deep hue plays well with denim, corduroy, or tweed. Dressing up? Pair it with tan chinos or navy trousers, and reboot when needed.
Styling Tips for Autumn
- Layer with purpose: A structured coat (Hugh), over a neutral knit (Astorn), under a light jacket (Cedro) ensures both warmth and dimension.
- Contrasts matter: Combine subdued tones (astorn khaki-beige, dict green of the Lellan) with statement knits (the Nova) to balance your silhouette.
- Texture & weight play: Wool, heavy knits, dense cotton canvas ‒ these materials bring richness and are essential for feeling grounded in autumn weather.
- Colour family cohesion: Sticking to navy, olive, beige, and muted oranges or browns keeps your mix-and-match game strong.
