Win your dream autumn wardrobe worth over £4,000

This competition is now closed. The winner will be announced on Wednesday 21st October.

As of 22 September, autumn will officially be here but, thanks to the thoroughly unpredictable British climate, you’re going to need your new season wardrobe much earlier than that. And if the thought of digging out last year’s worn chinos and threadbare sweaters seems thoroughly depressing after a summer in which it’s been practically impossible to invest in new pieces, we’ve got some good news for you. We’ve curated an edit of our favourite new season pieces from some great independent brands and we’re offering you the chance to win the entire selection, worth over £2,500. Here’s what’s on offer…

A timeless sweater is the cornerstone of any cool weather wardrobe and Luca Faloni does some of the finest. Knitted in Italy using 100% two ply cashmere from the prestigious Cariaggi Fine Yarns Collection, its elegant navy hue makes it incredibly versatile.

When was the last time you invested in some really good underwear? Been a while, hasn’t it. Specialising in creating the ultimate, wear forever and anywhere basics, Sunspel’s range of boxers, briefs and undershirts are a real revelation. Once you’ve tried them you’ll never go back.

Crockett & Jones may be best known for its high quality Oxfords and Derbys but it also does a fine line in wet weather appropriate boots as well. Modelled on the brand’s last 375, the hiking-inspired Shannon design features a chunky Vibram lightweight cleated sole and is finished in dark brown suede. It’s a brilliant addition to your weekend look.

Crisp autumn days are ideal for UK city breaks so your new season wardrobe is going to need to include a good weekend bag – and we’ve found the best. The Weekender from British brand Bennett Winch is perfectly sized for a few days away and includes thoughtful, practical touches such as a padded laptop sleeve, pockets and interior compartments.

Every man loves sneakers but we all know suede and canvas are not the best choices for sudden showers and drizzly days. Step in North-89 and its weatherproof No-2 trainer. Its classic silhouette is couple with a memory foam insole, showerproof upper and rubble sole for superior comfort and style. “Finally, we’ve managed to find a smart trainer brand that is both reasonably priced and produces products that stand the test of time,” says deputy editor Jonathan Wells.

Heading back to the office for the first time in months? This is your chance to up your weekday style game. Start with your accessories – Ettinger’s Capra folio is crafted in the UK from fine goat leather and lined in a soft jacquard fabric to keep your documents and tech safe. As Wells says, “Ettinger is the real deal, simply put. Family-owned, made in Britain and boasting products that will last long beyond your lifetime, Ettinger is everything you should look for when investing in style.”

“There are very few brands that has a heritage like Floris’, and it is clear to see that several centuries of innovation have led to some of the best aftershaves and grooming products you can buy,” says the GJ team. So put those sparkling, citrus scents away. The nights are drawing in, the mercury is lowering and it’s time for something altogether more spicy and warming. Blending notes of leather and oud with a heart of geranium and a woody base, Floris’ Leather Oud scent is masculine and sophisticated.

Summer may be over but autumn sunshine means a great pair of sunglasses still deserve a place in your autumn accessories wardrobe. The circular shape of the lenses on Cubitts’ Herbrand design is universally flattering while the all-over black tone looks great whatever the season.

You’ve been wearing Mr Marvis’ shorts all summer long and, now the weather is cooling, you’re not sure you can face going back to restrictive trousers. Well we have good news. Mr Marvis also does an excellent line in trousers and we’re huge fans of The Blackjack – a stretch cotton design that is light, soft and supremely comfortable.

The second thing you need to upgrade before you return to the office? Your shirts. The perfect white shirt is an elusive thing but Turnbull & Asser, that storied Jermyn Street shirtmaker, has mastered the art. This classic cut cotton shirt features a three-button cuff and signature Turnbull & Asser collar that is just the thing to take your suit to the next level.

As the nights draw in and the weather cools, it’s time to pack away those bottles of rosé and Aperol for another year and crack out the whisky. Our bottle of choice? The Glenlivet’s 18-year-old single malt Scotch, of course. With a nose of rich fruit and toffee, it’s full of citrus and winter spice flavours with a long raisin finish – perfection.
