Our Top 10 Fashion Picks for the Season
As the season changes, it’s time to get those wardrobes ready for action!
Consider the aesthetics of autumn. Something about this season just exudes cosiness and nostalgia. From sipping on those warm drinks to wrapping yourself up in light layers, and of course, the stunning jewel-tone landscape, this season is enjoyed by many!
This month, we’re bringing you our top 10 Cat picks that capture this autumn mood of comfort, style and durability, while still adding a touch of daring to your seasonal looks.
Current Fashion Trends To Consider For Autumn
Before we move on to building your cosy autumn looks, let’s take a look at the current trends for 2026.
- 80s With A Modern Twist
Almost every season, we see a slight nod to popular fashion trends from previous time periods, and this season, it appears that the 80s are one to spotlight.
Think oversized blazers, statement belts, corporate-core styles, and dramatic colour pairings.
- Big & Bold Accessories
Basically, we want you to forget the mantra ‘less is more’ because this season, ‘more is more’! Think multiple chains, stacked ring sets, fun embellished brooches, and unique sunglasses.
- Sporty & Chic
Another nod towards the 80s is the re-emergence of the sporty chic look. However, instead of neon tights and headbands, we are seeing retro anorak sport jackets, pleated tennis skirts, and sport sneakers.
- Gold Touches
Gold seems to be the preferred metal this season, and honestly, we are here for this moment! Gold beautifully complements the warm, jewel-tones that autumn brings, making it the ideal accessory for the season.
No shade to our silver people, though, your moment is definitely coming in winter!
Your Top 10 Caterpillar Must-Haves
With that overview in mind, here’s a list of items that we believe belong in your wardrobe this season!
Chillier seasons call for a statement boot, and ladies, we think you’ll love this pick! Available in three colourways, this leather boot features a chunky lugged sole, a leather harness, and metal buckle details that add a sense of ruggedness.
2. Meridian WP
The Meridian WP boots are definitely our top men’s boot pick. How could it not be?
The weathered leather, the contoured footbed which offers all-day comfort, the unique thread detailing, and not forgetting that it’s offered in two colourways, the Meridian WP boot stands out in both design and technical features!
Autumn calls for a statement jacket, and drawing on from our discussion on current fashion trends, we feel the W Waxed Moto Jacket is a stunning addition!
This jacket is the epitome of edgy chic. The waxed finish gives it a weathered look, and the moto-inspired design provides a structured silhouette that neatly balances the edginess of the design.
Similar to the ladies' Waxed Moto Jacket, the Waxed Chore Jacket is our top jacket pick for the gents this season.
While leather jackets have always been a favourite because of their grunge look and feel, they are also perfect for layering, making them the kind of jacket that completes a look without trying too hard.
5. Diesel Pant
Nothing beats a pair of cuffed pants, except for our cargo-inspired pair. The Diesel Pant is available in four colourways and is perfect for a sporty look.
There’s nothing more iconic than a denim skirt look, and in autumn, we think the carpenter maxi skirt is perfect! Paired with a simple polo neck and boots, this practically screams autumn nostalgia.
7. Foundation Western Buckle Belt
Remember when we said that big, bold accessories are all the excitement in the current fashion scene? The foundation western buckle belt is a must-have for your jeans this season.
For the days that require a little extra warmth, we think this bold orange Cat label cuff beanie is sure to make an epic statement!
No need to fill your pockets this season, when the perfect cross-body bag exists! The fashion world is in love with cross-body bags at the moment, and this mini version by Cat Apparel is perfect for holding the essentials: car keys, phone and wallet, while completing your look.
10. W AOP Crew Sock
Perhaps one of the most underrated accessories, but one we cannot overlook in cooler seasons: socks!
The funky pattern of our W AOP crew socks is perfect for turning heads and adding a little extra splash of colour to your outfits.
Wrapping Up The Season In Style
