The Autumn Wardrobe Edit: What to Wear in October
October is when autumn dressing really begins. September can still bring those unpredictable UK days that feel somewhere between summer and winter, but October is when we can fully embrace cosy layers, richer colours, knitwear, jackets and, of course, our favourite autumn shoes.
It’s also the perfect time to refresh your shoe rotation. From evening plans to everyday errands and cosy weekend walks, Gabor has an autumn style for every occasion. The secret to making autumn dressing easy? Start from the ground up. Choose your shoes first, then build your outfit around the colour, texture and silhouette.
The Ela
Sleek, stylish and timeless, the Ela is an ankle boot made for autumn. Crafted from luxe leather with a leather lining, rubber sole and 4.5cm curved block heel, it offers an elevated look while remaining easy to wear. The rich bordo colourway instantly brings an autumn feel to your wardrobe. Burgundy works beautifully with brown, grey, black and dark denim, making it surprisingly easy to style.
We’ve paired the Ela with a floaty patterned skirt that picks up the burgundy tones, a simple white long-sleeve top and cropped dark denim jacket for an effortless evening look.
The Adora
Every autumn wardrobe needs a reliable trainer, and the Adora brings a little more style to everyday dressing. Its mixed leather and suede upper create visual interest, while the practical lace-and-zip fastening makes it easy to wear.
The dark blue colourway is a great alternative to everyday neutrals. We’ve styled the Adora with navy trousers, a jumper featuring green and brown detailing and a trend-led green trench coat for a look that feels relaxed but considered.
The Lourdes
For crisp mornings when comfort is at the top of the list, meet the Lourdes. Its soft suede upper and fluffy microfibre interior create a cosy feel, while the easy slip-on design and elastic gusset panels make getting ready wonderfully simple.
The mocca colourway feels instantly autumnal. We’ve styled Lourdes with a brown top, favourite denim and an oversized brown-and-white striped shirt for an easy smart-casual outfit.
The Relaxed
For weekends where comfort comes first, the Relaxed is the boot to reach for. Inspired by the classic Chelsea silhouette, this shoe features a soft suede upper and microfibre lining for a cosy feel.
A chunky TR sole and 4.5cm heel add structure and a little lift, while the zip and elastic gusset make them easy to get on and off. Style the Relaxed with leggings, a simple white long-sleeve top and a checkered casual jacket for autumn walks, weekend errands or relaxed plans.
Dress from the ground up
Autumn styling doesn’t need to be complicated. Start with your shoes, choose a colour or texture to build around and then layer up with knitwear, jackets and accessories.
