If you’ve stepped outside in London, New York or Paris recently, you might have noticed a certain trend showcased by the most stylish residents. Featuring in some of the best outfits I’ve seen of late, the suede fashion trend has captivated every style devotee’s heart ahead of autumn.
In the form of boxy jackets, sweeping trench coats, roomy bags and more, suede is everywhere. Though it’s a timeless fabric, and as such will never be “out”, there’s no doubt it’s having a particularly big moment right now. My Instagram feed is peppered with the trend, and some of my favourite brands are releasing ever chicer styles by the day.
HOW TO SHOP FOR SUEDE
As a hardy, natural fabric, suede can last for a really long time, so it’s worth looking through vintage and secondhand sites and shops to find pre-loved versions, often at much more affordable prices. Look out for genuine suede items when shopping secondhand and inspect the item closely for any large blemishes, as these can be difficult to remove at home. I also advise checking the men’s section in your local charity shop, too, as this is often a haven for more budget-friendly suede pieces.
If you’d rather buy something new then you’re in luck, as high street and designer brands alike have so many great suede items right now. Set to be one of the season’s most important trends, read on to shop our edit of the suede items we love the most, new and old.
