What a week! You have kept us incredibly busy both online and across all three stores, with new deliveries barely making it onto the rails before some pieces have been heading straight back out again.
Your shopping this week also tells us that autumn wardrobes are definitely beginning to take shape. Jeans and trousers have dominated the bestseller list, but there has still been plenty of love for a gorgeous blouse, a cosy cardigan and those fabulous Oopera coats.
Your Looks This Week
The pieces you loved most this week
Milano’s gorgeous printed blouse
The Milano Navy Paisley Print Tie-Neck Blouse has been one of this week’s clear favourites—and we completely understand why.
The print is beautiful, but it is the bow neckline and double-layered flounce cuffs that really make it special. Wear it with dark denim for lunch or add black trousers when you want something a little smarter.
Red Button continues to fly
It would not be a Dotique bestseller list without Red Button, and you have loved several different shapes this week.
The new Colette Front Patch Pocket Jeans in Midstone have been particularly popular. They have Colette’s flattering high-rise waist and wide leg, with front patch pockets giving this version a slightly more contemporary look.
The shorter Conny Pressed Crease Jeans in Bleach Blue, L26 have also been a hit. This is such a useful option if you want a wide leg without lots of excess length, while the pressed crease keeps the shape looking smart.
The Colette Five-Pocket Jeans in Forever Blue, L31 remain one of those dependable styles that customers return to again and again. The clean dark-blue wash makes them incredibly easy to dress up, and three different sizes sold this week.
The trousers doing all the hard work
The Robell Joella 82cm Trousers in Black have been another bestseller. They are a brilliant wardrobe staple with a smart, wide-leg shape and plenty of comfort—exactly the sort of trousers you can wear for work, dinner or an occasion without having to think too hard about the rest of the outfit.
The Cream Winni Coated Ankle Trousers in Java Brown have also proved very popular. The deep brown colour feels perfect for autumn, while the coated finish gives them something a little different. Add cream knitwear, a printed blouse or a simple black top and boots.
Bootcut is most definitely back
You have been loving bootcut jeans across several brands, and this week the MAC Dream Bootcut Jeans in Fashion Rinsed joined the bestseller list.
The Dream fabric is beautifully comfortable and keeps its shape, while the dark rinse makes these jeans feel smart enough to wear beyond everyday dressing. They are particularly good with ankle boots and a blouse or fitted knit.
The Joules cardigan you keep choosing
The Joules Cowboy Collared Cardigan in Tan Brown has been another favourite. It is cosy, warm and full of character, with a western-inspired pattern and collar that make it much more interesting than an ordinary cardigan.
Throw it over a simple top and jeans and the outfit is done.
Oopera coats are still causing a stir
You went mad for the Oopera reversible raincoats when they first arrived—and they are still heading out of the door.
Each design gives you two completely different looks, with incredible artwork on one side and a more understated option on the reverse. They are practical, joyful and unlike anything else we have seen, which is probably why so many of you have struggled to choose just one.
New Kknekki colours have arrived
A fresh delivery of Kknekki hair ties has brought even more gorgeous colours into the stores and online.
These are one of our favourite little treats: they hold the hair beautifully, look lovely worn around your wrist and make such an easy gift. We have added new seasonal shades, so you can match them to your autumn wardrobe—or simply choose whichever colour makes you happiest.
New deliveries from Dolcezza and Part Two
The boxes have kept coming this week, with beautiful new collections arriving from both Dolcezza and Part Two.
Dolcezza has delivered its signature colour, artwork and personality, including fabulous printed jackets that instantly bring a simple outfit to life.
Part Two has brought us the other side of autumn dressing: soft cashmere, useful roll-necks, Fair Isle-inspired cardigans, cable knits, corduroy trousers and those lovely rich shades of mole, camel and deep green.
Our first Nobody’s Child collection is here
We are so excited that the first drop from Nobody’s Child has now arrived at Dotique.
The jackets are particularly gorgeous. There is a brown and green tartan car coat, as well as a relaxed khaki country jacket finished with tartan trims and a detachable neck tie. They feel fresh and current but are still incredibly wearable—the sort of pieces that will make jeans and a knit feel instantly more considered.
We have also welcomed the navy-check Otto maxi skirt, with its relaxed shape and delicate lace trim. It looks lovely with boots and knitwear now, then with a lighter top when spring comes around.
Red Button’s winter trousers are arriving
Red Button is not slowing down. Alongside all the denim you have loved this week, the first winter trouser styles are beginning to arrive—including the Caitlina in soft corduroy.
If you already know and love the Caitlina shape, this new seasonal version gives you the same contemporary feel in a warmer fabric that is perfect for colder days. Keep checking online as more colours and styles are added.
Until next week…
Thank you, as always, for every order, message, visit and lovely comment. We never take it for granted—especially during weeks like this, when so many new pieces arrive and you immediately understand exactly why Mum and I chose them.
