Introduce a shot of coffee-inspired tones from espresso and cappuccino to creamy latte, to invigorate your wardrobe. The AW23 runways saw a colour palette more muted than in recent seasons. Instead of jewel tones and vibrant brights on the runway, designers embraced tonal dressing with espresso shades below the waistline and creamy latte layers above, mimicking a well-poured flat white.

Miu Miu elevated everyday staples, mixing rich mocha with caramel, while at Prada the palette was restrained with an Americano blazer teamed with a milky miniskirt. Saint Laurent chose delicate shades of coffee grounds in leather and chiffon.
