Although it's still very much summer, we can't help but get excited for autumn styling, and if you're looking to get ahead for the transitional season, look no further than Mint Velvet's elegant new-in collection. The British clothing brand has launched several pieces this week, with a focus on one of the key colour trends for autumn 2026 - olive green.
From silky dresses that work for late summer just as well as they will for the cooler months, to fabulous statement blouses that will tuck seamlessly into jeans, this new-in drop is so well-curated for this time of year. Leading the collection is olive green, a shade that we expect to see much more of as we enter the cooler season.
Whilst brighter shades tend to dominate summer, olive is an understated, luxurious alternative that pairs so well with neutrals such as cream, beige and even denim. This is the kind of colour that makes getting dressed later in the year feel effortless. Mint Velvet pieces tend to sell out fast, so our advice is to shop anything you love before it's gone.
This eye-catching blouse is the type of piece that works with a range of looks, from pairing with your white jeans outfits to dressing up with a cream midi-skirt. The fluid bomber silhouette feels so on-trend.
With a clever two-in-one design, this silky dress and knit duo will see you through the season in style. From styling with heeled sandals on a warm summer's day to pairing with knee-high boots in the autumn, it's endlessly versatile.
If you're looking to freshen up your dress collection, this elevated design is worth shopping. It features clever front ruching, which perfectly flatters your midsection, and the abstract print feels so playful.
With a beautiful draped cowl neck, this satin top is the kind of piece that works for fancy dinner reservations or smart work events with ease. Wear with black tailoring, or pair with the matching satin trousers.
Made from delicate lace fabric and featuring a pussybow tie, this blouse feels so bohemian. The white hue makes it easy to style with everything, from tailored trousers to relaxed denim.
The perfect everyday bag, this suede style is crafted in a versatile beige shade that will work with a range of colours. It features a practical shoulder strap and a compact design.
This bomber jacket is the ultimate layering piece for the transitional season. It has a high neckline, softly puffed shoulders, and the metallic buttons add to its appeal. Layer over your best summer dresses.
This printed neck scarf offers the easiest way to make simple outfits feel instantly more interesting. Tie it around your neck whilst wearing a white shirt or simple vest for the chicest finishing touch.
Made from a soft cotton blend, this cardigan is the kind of versatile layering piece that you'll reach for throughout the changing season. Its rich green hue feels ideal for autumn styling.
Whilst olive green is having a moment, the appeal of the shade lies in how versatile and enduring it is. Sitting between a neutral and a statement colour, it can add depth to everyday outfits without feeling too hard to style.
When looking to freshen up your wardrobe during late summer, it's worth seeking staples that can adapt as the weather changes, and Mint Velvet's new-in collection has pieces that do exactly this. From breezy blouses that you can wear solo right now to lightweight knits that will carry you into the cooler season.
