As autumn approaches, keep it crisp and cool in the whitest of white outerwear
The cooler months are fast approaching but before you reach for that olive field jacket or that navy mac, consider a lighter approach. White is a much less wintery colour, goes with everything and generally looks ultra modern and cool. So ignore the archaic notion that one can't wear white after Labour Day and hang onto this pure hue throughout the season.

Take a look at these five brands that know exactly how to perfect this look:
Dior Homme
The pristine white puffy jackets at Dior Homme are a refreshing mix of clean-cut and streetwear. Pair with slick, black trousers and a chunky boot to keep it city-chic.
Dries Van Noten
The raw-hemmed macs and white scarves teamed with white blazers at Dries Van Noten are elegant to the core.
Juun J
Juun J sent super fresh oversized white macs down the runway that are sure to get you attention when popping into your local for a pint.
Yohji Yamamoto
The loose silhouette by Yohji Yamamoto keeps the white look casual and modern while the lightweight fabric allows you to wear it all year round. Layer with darker pieces to prevent the lab-coat vibe.
Valentino
Valentino gave the white jacket a prep-chic spin with its long hem, stiff collar and tortoise shell buttons, instantly adding sophisication to any sneaker look.
