A-wear go wild with autumn collection

Is it a coat, is it a cardigan? The coatigan is coming to a shop near you this autumn.

High Street brand A-wear have just launched their autumn/winter “Wildlife” collection.

And animals feature heavily — whether it’s faux fur, animal images on jumpers, or leopard-print coats.

The collection embraces a number of catwalk trends, with tapestry, tartan, and knitwear featuring.

Foxes feature heavily on knitwear but aren’t the only animals featured — with an owl and kitten matching woolly hat/scarf from €20.

The store has earmarked black, indigo, sage green, and berry red as the colours to look out for this season, announcing that the collection should be in shops in September.

Speaking on new season collection, A-wear head designer, Vanessa Macey, said: “Autumn is always the season we love most here at A-wear, with such unpredictable weather, our customer has always been a fan of wrapping up with heavy knits and scarves through to the very important autumn/winter coat purchase.”

And model Sarah Morrissey is seen here, wearing the €65 coatigan.

The ‘Fall’ collection is suitable for the price-conscious fashion shopper with jersey tops from €15 and& dresses and knitwear starting at €30.

The parka remains popular this season in the classic khaki green style, as are full-length leopard-print coats and biker jackets, with prices all around the €90 mark.

Dresses and skirts give the nod to old-style tapestry prints, with dresses and skirts €50 and €35 respectively, with A-wear signature printed dresses also in the collection, with prices starting from €35.
