It's Already Autumn At Damson Madder—These New Pieces Will Be Gone By September
Is peak summer the ideal time to talk about autumn staples? Well, if you live in the UK, then the answer is yes. After sweating my way through multiple heatwaves, I've been more than ready to welcome back colder evenings. However, now that the skies have turned moody and temperatures have actually dipped, it turns out that my wardrobe isn't quite as well-prepared. Suddenly, my beloved linens feel a bit lacking, and that butter yellow sundress simply too optimistic. After a week of awkwardly layering boots under my summer dresses and throwing on lightweight knits that feel entirely too hot on the tube, I finally found a surprisingly stylish solution to my dilemma, courtesy of Damson Madder's new pre-fall collection, The Waiting Room. Aptly titled as we wait for the seasonal whiplash to finally settle on a mood and temperature, the collection is packed with brilliant transseasonal pieces. Think argyle knits, preppy striped jumpers, workwear-inspired denim and flirty dresses in a muted palette that work just as well with a summer tan as they do under a trench. Basically, it's got everything you need to look and feel your best on a confusingly cold British summer day or a crisp September morning. The new collection remixes Damson Madder's signature bright palette, playful details and flirty silhouettes for autumn with muted shades and slightly pared-back silhouettes. For fans of polka dots, the brand's new take on summer's It trend is rendered in brown and burgundy, across a shirred midi dress, a peplum-hem blouse and a knee-length skirt with a touch of ruffle detailing. Also on offer is a spotted trendy headscarf, perfect for summer holidays, that'll look brilliant for adding a splash of colour to your neutral winter wardrobe, too. ©Instagram/@katfromfinance Of course, if you're looking to up your knitwear game, there's plenty of updated classics to choose from – whether you're after a more eclectic argyle vest, a sporty rugby shirt or a demure ruffled cardigan. If it's chic outerwear you're after, this collection has two superlative options – one reversible olive trench coat that's sure to be a viral hit the moment it drops, and a vintage wash denim jacket with a cinched waist that's a fun fashion-forward slant on a basic. Rounding out the roster are a few roomy culottes and wide-leg jeansthat'll add volume to your tank tops and jumpers alike. There's even a striped capri if you're after a cool-girl staple. As for accessories, a couple of east-west bags in autumnal brown and olive shades make for the perfect finishing touch. A grown-up take on the whimsical Damson Madder signatures we've come to love, this collection has taken me by surprise. While I'm very tempted to add just about everything to my cart, a few pieces stand out above most. Chic, versatile, and simply wearable, shop our picks from Damson Madder's Pre-Fall collection below. Cynthia Sheer Midi Dress It's no secret that Damson Madder's dresses are some of the best on the high street, and this shirred scoop neck midi will see you through sunny days and chillier September mornings with ease. Simply style with ballet flats and trainers right now before swapping in Chelsea boots and a woollen coat come autumn. Suri Shirred Cotton Satin Blouse On the hunt for a nice top to wear with jeans and skirts? How about this elegant satin number with all-over shirred detailing, ruffles along the neckline and a peplum waist. While the cherry red style is perfect for a pop of colour, we're also loving the spotted iteration. Octavia Skirt Dress it up with the matching blouse and kitten heels, or take cues from Gen Z It girls and pair it with a sleek white T-shirt, knee-high socks and loafers. Either way, the Octavia skirt is flowy, polished and trendy enough to feature heavily in your summer and autumn wardrobe. Emilie Workwear Jacket For a contemporary take on denim jackets, this workwear-inspired piece with a cinched waist and a chic vintage fade is an excellent layer. Pair with the brand's matching Drew jeans for a chic Canadian tuxedo. Aggie Knitted Vest An eclectic lightweight layer will serve you well, whether worn solo with jeans or layered over a T-shirt and woollen trousers. Mara Trouser The Mara Trouser is a standout piece that's sure to be a common sight on chic women across the city come autumn. Defined by a barrel-leg shape, the neutral trousers feature pleated details and folded pockets. Ilona Striped Rugby Jumper The summer of sport is far from over, so why not invest in this preppy striped rugby jumper that'll pair well with maxi skirts right now and make for an effective layer when the temperatures dip? Avery Embroidered Quilted Coat Is it too soon for a quilted coat? Perhaps, but given how the brand's chicest pieces have a way of selling out quickly, we'd suggest stocking up early to avoid the waitlist. Benny Bowler in Olive Unless you're hauling your laptop to work, it's time to skip the large totes and invest in a sleeker bag for autumn. This striking bowler bag is still roomy enough for essentials. Main image credits: ©Instagram/@katfromfinance Hitanshi Kamdar is a senior commerce writer for Grazia.

People are wearing nightgowns anywhere but to bed
This is not your grandmother's nightgown. Or maybe it is. The same style of sleepwear that was once strictly relegated to bedrooms and boudoirs has now become the summer dress of the year. Reformation's Holly Sleep Dress ($128), a floaty mini dress with a scrunched 1950s-style neckline with scalloped edges, was inspired by 'vintage nightgowns that you can probably get away with wearing out and about,' the brand's website read. Similarly, fellow cool-girl label Damson Madder noted that its Elspeth Nightdress ($67), which features dainty floral embroidery and a broderie hemline, is 'effortlessly wearable from night to day.' Meanwhile, If Only If — the British brand behind the scene-stealing nightgowns worn by Megan Stalter in Lena Dunham's Netflix series 'Too Much' — photographs models wearing their nighties with woven basket bags at the farmer's market or out in the countryside. On TikTok, videos made using the hashtag #nightgown have increased 200% in the last 12 months. Content creators on Instagram are showing equal enthusiasm. 'I literally cannot stop buying vintage nightgowns,' influencer Bridget Brown told her 99,000 Instagram followers in a recent video,as she unboxed an embroidered, scoop-neck cotton nightie that flowed past her knees, bought secondhand from Facebook Marketplace. 'This is sexy for an Edwardian nightgown, let me tell you,' she added, her mouth agape with glee. But braving the outside world in your intimates is not an entirely new concept. In the late 18th century, French artist Elizabeth Louise Vigée Le Brun painted a portrait of Marie Antoinette, the last queen of France, wearing a sloping straw hat and chemise dress — a typical undergarment for women at the time. The picture was initially displayed at Vigée Le Brun's first-ever exhibition at the prestigious Académie Royale de Peinture et de Sculpture in 1783, though the exposing nature of the queen's nightie was deemed too inappropriate for public viewership and quickly removed. For years, designers have tried to harness that same feeling of shock, exposure and titillation by reimagining lingerie staples such as corsets, bras and nightdresses on the runway. For his Spring-Summer 1992 show in London, John Galliano honed in on the romanticism and sensuality of 19th-century slips typically worn in the French court. Named 'Napoleon and Josephine,' Galliano's collection included sheer nightdresses that revealed the bust entirely. At Calvin Klein's Spring-Summer 1995 show in New York, silky lace-trimmed nightgowns in black, stone grey and champagne hung off the frames of models like Kate Moss and Stella Tennant. If Galliano's collection was about capturing a theatrical sleepwear fantasy, Klein offered a version of nightgowns that were surprisingly sophisticated and even, at times, office appropriate. In 1997, Stella McCartney's debut as the designer of Chloé added to the conversation even further: With delicate spaghetti straps and pastel colors, the nightgowns that appeared on the runway were perhaps the most faithful to what could have really been worn to bed. The tide has well and truly changed since the days of Marie Antoinette's portrait — even Princess Diana wore an inky blue and black lace-trimmed slip dress from Dior to the 1996 Met Gala. But where nightgowns have previously been used as a visual shorthand for sex appeal, with their skin-baring cuts and silky fabric, today's trend is driven by frumpier, more historically-accurate silhouettes. Rachel Tashjian, fashion critic at the Washington Post, who also writes an invite-only newsletter called 'Opulent Tips,' has a cotton nightgown from the late 1800s she likes to wear while walking her dog in New York's Central Park on the weekends. 'The fabric is quite starchy, and it almost reminds me of wedding cake frosting,' she said over the phone. It once belonged, she thinks, to her husband's great grandmother. 'Pieces from that time, especially underpinnings, have all these incredible details of lacework and pin tucks and pleating,' she added. Sandeep Salter, the co-founder of the New York-based clothing and homeware brand Salter House, says that organic cotton nightdresses and PJs are her most popular categories. 'New Yorkers know us for it and we continue to launch new designs periodically,' she wrote in an email. The frocks are inspired by a range of references — from the nightgowns first received by Salter from her mother when she was 13 years old to the original nightdress worn by Wendy Darling in 'Peter Pan.' One of Salter's designs, an oversized square-neck white cotton frock called 'The Lamb', was modelled after traditional 19th century French undergarments. 'We see our nightdresses styled into daywear in really nice ways,' Salter said. 'With a cardigan tied like a sash around the body, with a mini-heeled Mary Jane or ballet flats and a sharp purse.' She herself likes to pair a Salter nightgown with an oversized scrunchie and a baseball cap. No matter how it's worn, the common thread between these romantic, loose-fitting gowns is comfort. It's a hangover, perhaps, from the pandemic-induced lockdowns of 2020, when people were mandated to stay home and sales of sweatpants surged (even Anna Wintour succumbed to their siren call). Two years later, when restrictions lifted post-pandemic, we slipped back into our jeans and slacks — but the hankering for comfort never left. 'It feels good, physically,' Salter said about the continued interest in gauzy gowns. Tashjian agreed, noting that nightdresses offer a more put-together alternative to baggy sweatpants. The enduring popularity of nightwear styles isn't only being driven by women, either. At Milan's Men's Fashion Week in June, Dolce & Gabbana showed loungewear, slouchy separates and matching striped trousers and shirts that riffed off pajama sets. Do recent fashion trends such as these have anything to do with a revival of conservative politics? 'I think a lot of this comes down to how the person is wearing it,' said Tashjian. 'There also is a world in which it's some conflation of this conservative, 'trad wife' style,' she said, referring to the rising trend of milkmaid dresses, full A-line skirts and puff-sleeve blouses. But many other young women are winking at this type of antiquated femininity while engaging with it. Take Prada's Spring-Summer 2023 show, where sheer, matronly nightdresses and housecoats were shown with heeled Mary Janes and tightly gripped clutch bags. 'It's a woman taking things that are assigned to a particular lane in life, and recontextualizing them in a way that's very naughty or mischievous or arrogant,' observed Tashjian.

This Pretty Damson Madder Top Looks 10x The Price – And It's Selling Fast
In case it isn't obvious yet, this summer's sartorial conversations have largely been dominated by one brand in particular: Damson Madder. Thanks to a crop of playful, retro-leaning designs, the British brand has built a loyal following of whimsically well-dressed women. Its dress selection is particularly noteworthy – the Angelina midi and Goldie mini have already reached cult status. However, if like me, you aren't keen on dresses, the good news is that the brand has an excellent array of blouses and tops that are just as cheerfully crafted and add a flirty touch to your favourite jeans, trousers and even skirts. Case in point, the Tula Wide Strap Smock Cami. Detailed with a frilly trim along the neckline threaded through with a delicate red bow, this seemingly simple top makes for the perfect elevated upgrade to your classic summer camisoles. Crafted from breathable cotton with a relaxed smock fit, it promises comfort during balmy days, especially now that the mercury has reached its peak. 1. Tula Cami This effortlessly comfortable yet undeniably charming cami top is a summer wardrobe staple. The butter-yellow base is beautifully contrasted with red detailing for a unique finish. It's no surprise that this blouse has gained popularity, thanks largely to its on-trend, butter yellow hue. But that's not all. The Tula cami's relaxed silhouette and delicate details add a nightwear-inspired touch, perfectly capturing the growing trend of wearing nightwear out and about in the day. Take style cues from the fashion set by pairing it with the matching Tula Frilly Hem Trousers, or mix and match with other loungewear favourites such as boxer shorts. Naturally, Damson Madder's blouse lineup doesn't end there. Here at Grazia HQ, we've been pining after the Becca blouse (which also comes in both mini and maxi dress form) all summer, while the nautical-inspired Elise blouse was on top of our spring wishlist earlier this year. There's also the Jade cami, which is available in a similar butter-yellow shade and currently on sale. 2. Jade Cami Embroidered detailing on blouses is set to be a key trend this summer, bringing a soft, feminine touch to any outfit. The Jade cami features signature bow detailing and is cinched at the waist for a flattering fit. All of which to say, no matter what your style is or whatever your plans are, there's a cheerful Damson Madder blouse just waiting to be worn. Much like its internet-famous dresses, Damson Madder's blouses rarely stay in stock for long, with many selling out at record speed or requiring a waitlist just so you catch them on their next restock. Our advice? If you want to snap up a pretty summer top that'll become a staple in your wardrobe rotation, act fast. 3. Elise Blouse This sailor-inspired blouse from Damson Madder is a must-have for any wardrobe, pairing effortlessly with baggy jeans and frilly skirts alike. Despite its bold, exaggerated collar, it remains a surprisingly versatile piece. 4. Becca Blouse, Cherry This striking red blouse is great if you want to inject a bold colour into your blouse rotation. The Becca blouse is an extremely versatile option as well, as it comes with removable sleeves, essentially making it two tops in one. Absolute win, in our books. 5. Suri Shirred Blouse For a particularly comfortable yet flattering fit, consider the Suri blouse, featuring shirred detailing and red polka dots for a playful touch. The peplum hem will sit elegantly over satin skirts and trousers for an evening out. 6. Clare Blouse The Clare blouse bears a striking resemblance to Aligne's best-selling longline blazers – structured yet incredibly chic with a waisted silhouette. The difference? You can easily wear this one in the summer, thanks to its lightweight cotton construction. 7. Caroline Blouse Scalloped hem, cherry motifs, pin-tuck bodice, and puff sleeves – we're not quite sure which saccharine detail we love most about this pretty blouse, but we're sure we'll be wearing it on repeat this season. 8. Mansi Blouse A gingham blouse is a great way to tap into the picnic-blanket trend that has been dominating the fashion discourse this season. Especially when it comes with shirred details and a muted colour palette. 9. Leilani Blouse This thick pinstripe blouse makes a strong addition to any wardrobe rotation, finished with delicate frills and a subtly cinched silhouette, thanks to its button-down front.
