While saying goodbye to summer is never fun, there are many reasons to be happy when the leaves start to change. For starters, layering is back in style, which greatly expands your clothing options and allows you to express your unique sense of style. Being able to dress in thick knits and a large coat is just as pleasant as warm weather. each cloud (of which there will be many).

Percival is one of our go-to brands for layering clothing. The London-based brand creates modern casualwear that is both subtle and distinctive. There are plenty of stackable, textured pieces to help you dial in your autumn wardrobe. It’s everyday wear with personality and class in equal measure.

then what are Why do you need such items in your 2022 layering lineup? The important layering pieces Ape recommends for this season are all included in Percival’s brand-new AW22 collection, which you can find below. What to invest in, from knitwear to wool coats.

Mac Coat

Given how frequently it rains during this time of year, a waterproof garment is a necessity. Unfortunately, despite being extremely practical, today’s technologically advanced Gore-Tex shell jackets don’t often go well with ordinary casual clothing. When worn with items like jeans, casual shoes, and knitwear, they can look too outdoorsy and odd, which is why a mac is useful.

A traditional button-up mac created in England with weatherproof Italian cotton-blend fabric is Percival’s Waterproof Sherlock coat. It even has a massive interior pocket large enough to accommodate a small laptop or a tablet. Its long (but not too long) body makes it ideal for layering over a crew neck, hoodie, or some knitwear.

Heavyweight Overshirt

The most adaptable piece of clothing out there may just be a nice overshirt. With its unlimited layering options, it can be dressed up or down with ease, it works in all kinds of conditions, and if you choose one in a heavyweight fabric, it will serve you well even in the darkest depths of fall and winter.

The high calibre of the available overshirts is what first caught our attention about Percival. We love shackets, and the British company just so happens to produce some of the greatest in the market.

Consider the Casentino Wool Blanket Workshirt as an illustration. It is made of a bespoke Italian wool-blend fabric, has numerous pockets, and is available in a variety of seasonally appropriate colours with checks. It is also handcrafted in London, and for just over £200, we believe it offers incredible value. with checks.

Ribbed Knit

Knitwear is the ideal way to add texture to your autumnal outfits, especially if it is ribbed for added delight. You can wear it over a T-shirt when you’re at home or layer it with other tactile pieces to add depth to your fall/winter looks.

The insulating lambswool construction of Percival’s raglan knit is made for layering and is intended to keep you warm. For a stylish way to withstand the worst of the autumn weather, layer it with an overshirt and a heavy coat.

Wool Overcoat

If you choose the perfect one, an appropriate overcoat is one of those timeless pieces that will last you a lifetime and go with everything. When it’s time to get dressed up, throw it on top of casual outfits to fancy them up or use it to shield your finery from Mother Nature.

Percival’s Trench Coat, which checks all of our essential overcoat boxes and then some, is a great favourite of ours. soft fabric made of wool? Check. Timeless style? Check. Comfortingly thick? Check. fits in with everything and anything? Do a double check.

Roll Back

The roll neck belongs in the top tier of clothing items for layering. A conventional crew neck or cardigan simply can’t provide the additional dimension that a raised neck adds to fall and winter ensembles. The raised neck leaps out from the neckline of shirts, jackets, and coats. Additionally, it gives you a slight Scandinavian architectural design, which is a fantastic aesthetic to go toward.

This navy choice from Percival is crafted from 100% lambswool to help keep that neck and body toasty. It is designed in a relaxed yet appealing shape. To finish off the outfit, we’d advise layering it with a textured overshirt and donning a heavy coat. Oh, and pants. Don’t forget to wear pants.
