Hot off the high street

Celia Birtwell’s new collection for Uniqlo has dropped, and we’ve got our purses at the ready. The covetable pieces are all 100 per cent silk and feature the designer’s gorgeous signature prints. I want the blue printed skirt and paisley headscarf – now! Prices start at £12.90.

Having a moment…

Animal puts the fierce into fashion, but this autumn, the classic print has shed its skin to go colour-pop! Take your cue from Heidi Klum and unleash the beast within with this leopard-print dress.

Dress, £27, Glamorous
