Lessons In Layering
Autumn is the season of all things cosy. Whether you’re dressing for an evening out after work or just a cosy day at home on the weekend, we know that comfort is key. And what better way is there to stay warm and on-trend than by layering up all of your favourite pieces? Say hello to long sleeves, knitwear, coats and cardigans – because this season, there is no such thing as too many layers.
We’ve put together this handy guide to help you master the art of layering. Dress for work, weddings and everything in between with these elegant styles and you’re sure to feel fabulous for every occasion.
Read on to meet our favourite stackable styles for the season, as well as a checklist of how to wear them together.
Knit dresses are a staple of every autumn wardrobe. Not only are they perfect for smart workwear outfits, they can also be styled with heels and jewellery for an elegant evening look at your next special occasion.
How To Layer:
Style over a pair of tights, and add a smart jacket over the top for the perfect autumnal layered look. We’re loving trench coats unfastened for a relaxed evening outfit – or you can add a longline gilet to keep cosy.
Finding the perfect jumper is no easy task, but with so many to choose from here at Izabel London, we’re confident we have one you will love.
Filter by colour and print to find a jumper that matches your personal style; whether that’s a simple black knit top, pastel pink shades or vibrant animal print. Discover stylish finishing touches like embroidered details or textured cable knits, and keep warm with a high neck or an open front knit that you can wrap around your body like a cosy blanket.
How To Layer:
Wear your knitwear over a midi dress, a relaxed blouse, or a smart fitted shirt; the options are endless when it comes to layering! Remember to a roomy or oversized fit if you will be adding and removing layers throughout the day.
Cosy coats and gilets are the final addition to your layered look, and an essential for the season.
Feeling cold? Choose longline coats or puffer jackets, filled with insulation that will keep you nice and cosy. Looking for something extra to finish off your outfit? Try a cropped faux suede jacket, or a faux fur gilet.

How To Layer:
Simply throw on your favourite jacket or coat over any outfit. Experiment with the length of your skirts and jackets to find a combination that suits you – for example, a cropped jacket with a short dress, or a longline trench coat with a maxi dress.
Mix and match a few of these layers for an instant, easy outfit. This foolproof outfit guide works for smart dress codes, casual events, and everything in between.
