Wrap Up For Winter

2012-10-10T14:41:50+01:00

Indulge in our gorgeous range of knitwear in luxurious fabrics such as Merino Wool, Cashmere and Angora. With modern designs that are on trend but will hold their style for this winter and beyond, this season’s knitwear has had a style update. From kitsch prints to luxury embellishments; the humble jumper is now taking centre stage.

The modern leopard print of the Hallie Jumper in bright pink and camel is the perfect understated take on the printed knitwear trend and as it’s 100% Merino Wool, you’ll feel snug yet sophisticated all winter!

The Ariel cashmere blend jumper is both beautifully soft and warm and comes in this season’s must have shade of bright pink. The loose role neck is both flattering and cosy on a wintery day and you can wear it under the Leta Gilet for when the weather gets colder.

Lastly, knitwear is not just for relaxing at home. Make knitwear work in the office with our Tie Front Jumper. This looks perfect under a classic black blazer and will give a classic 60s feel to your professional look.

Berry Shades

Berry Shades

The catwalks were awash with shades of pink and purple this season and you can get the look with the gorgeous and vibrant colour palette of our Autumn collection...

Berry shades will add elegance and femininity to your outfit and in particular we love the sleeveless Clarice dress. The magenta tones are the perfect companion to the soft drape of the skirt. Match your accessories to any of the beautiful berry shades in this dress to fully embrace this trend.

If you prefer a more structured dress for your special event we would recommend the Rosie dress and for an effortless on the go look why not try the Kara Knitted Dress. The bright pink colour blocking will make a statement while the wool mix makes the dress easy to wear. Smart enough for work it can also be worn when relaxing with friends.

For a more subtle berry work look why not pair the Halie jumper with a tailored trouser suit. The hint of pink will give your work wear classics a modern update.

How to wear your new winter coat

2012-09-21T10:32:31+01:00

Here we share three different ways to stay on trend this autumn with your Fenn Wright Manson coat. Whilst all of our coats are timeless, classic styles, these styling tips will help you to create an outfit which is up to date with this season’s must have looks...

Military

Year after year military is always a popular look for outerwear. This year the emphasis is on luxury fabrics and muted tones. Start with the Emmy coat and pair with the Maddie jersey dress. Add riding boots and leather gloves to give a military edge to this classic look.

Opulent

For this trend match the glamorous winter florals of the Greta dress with the faux fur trimmed Ivy coat. Pair with opaque tights, black heels and statement jewels to complete the look.

Tailoring

Use one of our impeccably cut coats to tap into this Autumn Winters tailoring trend. Masculine tailoring is given a feminine twist with bright pinks and contrasts of volume. To channel this look team your Tori coat with the Janice trousers and Paige shirt. Keep accessories understated so as not to distract from the clean lines of your tailored look.

Petites Shopping Trip

2012-09-07T00:00:00+01:00

Ellie from our Customer Services Team tries on some of the dresses from our brand new Petite Collection and tells us about her favourites...

"Here at Fenn Wright Manson Customer Services we can offer personal style advice over the phone and to make sure we know our products inside out we like to have regular try-on sessions in store!

Being only 5”2 I was particularly excited about the recent launch of the Autumn Winter Petite range. I particularly like the Garbot dress (photo of me wearing this above left) as it’s so versatile. It would be great to wear to the office but would also look just as good for a date after work. The colour is stunning and I would recommend wearing it with black patent court shoes and a long string of pearls for a classic sophisticated look.

Whilst I was in the changing room, I also couldn’t resist trying on the “Ellie Dress!” Normally I am much more drawn to colourful dresses and don’t often wear black and white but this dress might be changing that. The dress is really flattering and I feel really confident in it – you should try it too."
