Well priced, thoughtfully designed and hitting all the right style notes for autumn, the high street giant has well and truly arrived
Let’s be honest: when you think of Marks & Spencer, your mind probably goes straight to buying a meal deal for your train journey, not your next wardrobe upgrade. But hold the Percy pigs— because M&S menswear has seriously stepped up, and it’s overdue your attention.
Historically, M&S was the old reliable of British high street fashion. Dependable? Yes. Stylish? In a quality basics and a "buy-it-for-Dad for Christmas” kind of way. But now, gents, Marks & Sparks has some real swagger about it.
This Autumn, Marks & Spencer has focused their attention on providing effortless menswear essentials that are impressive enough in their own right while seamlessly complementing everything you already own. We're talking directional prints, luxe fabrics, and cuts so sharp you'd think they'd been plucked from the rails of Savile Row. Whether your style leans more towards the tailored, the elegantly minimal, or you're in pursuit of something a bit bolder to liven up your cold-weather wardrobe, M&S will definitely have something that fits the bill.
In its arsenal of autumn treasures, a few items really stand out so you might want to get in there early if you want to be wearing them by next week. The lightweight aviator is faux leather but you’d never tell, ideal for throwing on now while temps remain above 5 degrees. There’s also a merino-rich jumper in a bold diagonal design that will look particularly good with the Autograph Tapered Fit Twin Pleat Chinos (which look 10x more expensive than their £49 price tag). That’s the thing about this collection – there’s not just one thing that will catch your eye, it’s all good. To the point you might consider an entire wardrobe overhaul while you’re at it.
If you're itching to give your fall wardrobe a facelift, you needn't search far and wide – simply scroll down to discover Gently’s roundup of the finest menswear pieces at M&S right now.
