OPINION - Enough of polite beige — how to embrace loud luxury this autumn

One of my favourite phrases picked up from the past few weeks of fashion shows was a line from the Moschino collection — loud luxury. Personally speaking, I’m so bored of the whole dressing like a rich person obsession (do look away from TikTok drones waxing nonsense into their devices on what to buy from Zara to look expensive). Serious question — can you have too much polite beige?

What I do want right now is cool, cosy, comfort and to swathe myself in knitwear. Fully ignoring weird blasts of clement weather — that chill in the air is coming, it’s time to de-moth and prepare. I’d also very much recommend a swipe of Merit’s highlighter, whatever is in it makes me look much more alive than usual.
