The Acne emporium on Dover Street is a dangerous place for fashion fanatics like me. This venue is the Swedish fashion brand’s first UK store. Opened in 2010, with four floors of womenswear and menswear, it showcases the very best of this hip brand.

ACNE (Ambition to Create Novel Expressions) offers everything you could need for a suitable and stylish winter wardrobe. Picking from the classics, and the new season’s must haves I have selected my favourites. I rarely wear jeans, or boots, so to find a brand which makes both these to meet my incredibly fussy requirements is quite a feat.

Skin 5 pocket jeans are the essential jeans for every wardrobe; perfect skinny fit with a slight stretch they are flattering and comfortable, available in an array of different coloured washes. Complete the look with the chunky, original Acne black pistol boots, warm and thick heeled, they are ideal for surviving rainy days in London. White t-shirts are the simplest of garments and yet can be unflattering… Acne are masters of the basics and the wonder white linen t-shirt is my favourite from the collection, though there are many to choose from. Floaty and stylish, it falls flatteringly over the body, great for every occasion. There are lovely jumpers in the women’s department at Acne, but I couldn’t resist this gorgeous mens cashmere spotless jumper in off white (but also available in grey), super soft and ultra comfortable, with a useful pocket, it is a beautiful piece of knitwear for day and night. To complete the look indulge in the huge enveloping Alaska oversized square scarf, the cloud blue is most wearable, I think.

I wish I could wear and own everything in the Acne store. The above essentials will be versatile and useful all season, for every occasion. An indispensable winter wardrobe.
