The Autumn/ Winter 2013 collection from Reiss features modern separates, razor-sharp tailoring, dapper men’s suits and timeless statement dresses. My favourite item was this quilted silver leather jacket which was a real stand-out piece (and about a fifth of the price of a metallic Burberry one).
Even though we may be a bit sick of all things Great Gatsby-inspired by now, the collection is a modern, feminine interpretation of the 20s and inspirations include Jazz Age fashion, Virginia Bates, Kiki De Montparnasse and 1920s Paris. Other highlights are re-worked outerwear classics like the pea coat and Crombie, fresh occasion wear with bold lace, jacquard patterns and fine lurex stripes and these chic cut out court shoes.

The collection uses contrasting fabrics and textures like structural crepe, sun-bleached wool, shaggy shearling, glossy leathers, draped jersey and luxurious satin finishes which play with shadows and light, in a cool, muted palette for which Reiss is known. Tasteful and simple with discreet detailing, the garments are suitable for day or night.
