Looks we’re loving this Winter
The morning chill has settled over the city. Now’s the perfect time to wrap yourself up in quality pieces that will last for seasons to come. AW26 is all about texture. Think buttery leather, weighty jackets, warm earthy tones. We’re talking homewares that look like they were pulled straight from the studio of a ceramicist. Fashion is sensory. Textures are meant to be felt. The best part: you can come and feel all of it. Here are the pieces leading the season.
The Texture Of The Season
If there is one texture defining AW26, it is leather. There is something about this material that feels so good for the season. The way a leather jacket sits comfortingly heavy on your shoulders as the temperature drops. The sound a boot heel makes as it strikes a wet winter pavement. How a bag develops its own character the more you carry it. It is a material that asks to be used, worn and lived in.
R.M. Williams at Forrest Chase understands this, with handcrafted boots, bags and jackets that reward a closer look.
The Silhouette Of The Season
It is the year of the jacket. The funnel neck bomber has taken over AW26 and the reason is simple: it works across every texture the season has to offer. Suede adds a softness to the overall fit, whereas Trench fabrications add a satisfying structure and drape. Then you have leather, with that unmistakable weight and wear-in quality that only improves with time. Head to MYER and Universal Store at Forrest Chase to feel this season’s best iterations for yourself.
The Colour You Can Feel
Brown is the colour of the season. Not one brown, but all of them: the deep, burnished tones of a chocolate leather, the warm camel of a heavyweight knit, the rich mocha of a structured coat. It is a colour that feels inherently tactile, that shifts and deepens depending on the fabric it lives in. Find it at Sportsgirl in a sleek satin skirt that catches the light as you move, or pick up a classic Levi’s beanie in a tone that ties the whole look together. Both available at Forrest Chase.
At Home This Winter
Bring the season’s styles home with you. Textured ceramics in earthy, organic tones are defining AW26 interiors, and the reason they are trending is simple: they bring something back that digital life has quietly taken away. The tactile pleasure of picking up a piece with real weight and surface. The warmth of a glaze that shifts in the light. The satisfaction of a solid bowl, holding a hot meal. Find the season’s finest waiting for you at MYER in Forrest Chase.
Every piece, every texture, every colour you have just read about is already inside Forrest Chase, waiting to be explored, tried on and taken home. Come in and feel it for yourself.
