It feels like everyone I know is already in the fall spirit, even though it’s still August. People are satisfied with the summer we’ve had and are sharing photos of colorful leaves and cozy scarves while planning their Christmas holidays. Personally, I could always enjoy more summer days, but the recent cooler weather has me reaching for cardigans and more substantial dresses. So, the launch of the Hush autumn collection couldn’t have been timed better.
The autumn collection is all about sexy, rock ‘n’ roll vibes with its glitzy stars, bright faux fur, and daring styles. It makes me want to enjoy a cool night out, sip red wine, have a warm dinner, and walk home with the scent of bonfires in my hair. While it might still be a bit warm for heavy knitwear, my recent obsession with a red faux-fur jacket is a bit ahead of the season. Nonetheless, having diverse layering pieces is crucial as we transition to autumn.
Take the Keris Cardi, for instance. It’s perfect to throw over a dress casually. Not too thick for a summer evening but warm enough for winter when layered with a vest, dress, and coat. And speaking of dresses, this collection has enough fantastic ones to last for years. The Emanuelle dress, in a stunning navy and gold, is lightweight for a late summer day and equally dazzling during the festive season with a little added sparkle. There’s even a mini stars version I almost missed, perfect for lounging at home or dining out.
Then there’s the Yasmin dress, which boasts a figure-flattering design with a sexy leg reveal and a charming shirred waist. The soft, lightweight fabric is great for late summer days, and the star print is captivating. For an edgier look, I pair the Yasmin with Hush’s Avery Biker Boots, which add a bit of contrast to the dress’s feminine cut. I predict the Yasmin will be a hit, with its Morticia Addams-inspired allure—casual yet refined.
And what about the standout faux-fur jacket in a fiery autumn red? Hush has also introduced a longer black version, but really, how many black jackets do you need? The Harri faux fur is cheerful and festive, ideal for the end of the year when anything red screams party season. But since it’s not Christmas yet, I’ve been wearing mine over a Carpe Diem tee and leather leggings with Ledbury trainers.
Lastly, there’s the Cressida Shirred dress—a vintage-feeling piece I love, even if I have to avoid bending over in it! It showcases tanned legs beautifully but needed a careful spin to avoid surprising my husband. The sheer fabric, delicate design, and dainty star pattern make it unique, especially paired with cowboy-style ankle boots. The Harlow boots are everything I want in flirty footwear, with their classic shape, star detailing, and snakeskin print. They pair perfectly with denim shorts now or with tight jeans when it turns colder. And yes, they look great with dresses—whether maxi or mini!
These picks from the new Hush autumn collection are my favorites. There were so many great pieces that it took a while to narrow down my choices. I might even do a series on this! Just need to let my husband recover from the spontaneous twirling episode. What do you find most appealing?
