When I think of boho style, my mind goes straight to Sienna Miller in a coin belt and low-slung skirt, or Kate Moss jetting off to the Balearics with a carry-on full of floaty blouses to throw over bikinis. But its appeal extends well beyond summer, as this season’s street-style set demonstrated. Alongside the familiar cotton dresses, crochet and embroidery came long, loose layers, vintage jackets and chunky belts – a reminder that a few tweaks can carry that carefree spirit into the cooler months.
Below, the easy ways to bring your boho style into autumn.
A suede jacket
From Dakota Johnson to Bella Hadid, suede jackets have long been a staple in the wardrobes of boho devotees. Best worn a little distressed, they’ll see you through autumn long after summer’s bell-sleeved blouses have been packed away.
Long, loose layers
Boho style favours long, loose layers over anything restrictive or form-fitting, and autumn is the perfect time to pile on asymmetric silhouettes in true Stevie Nicks style.

A vintage-inspired gilet
A gilet might be an acquired taste, but the boho girl knows the power of a vest. Choose an animal-print style trimmed with fuzz for the full ’70s look, and wear it over knitwear well into autumn.

A tiered skirt
The tiered skirt is a boho staple – the more billowing, the better. Out in full force this season thanks to Chemena Kamali’s Chloé, its swishy silhouette is a reminder that boho style needn’t stop in September.
A statement jacket
Boho style thrives on eclecticism, making this in-between season the perfect excuse to dig out your favourite printed jacket. The more decorated, the better: ideally, it should look like a one-of-a-kind find you spent hours hunting down, even if you panic-bought it online.
Invest in accessories
Boho accessories call for a more-is-more approach. Start with a statement belt, then pile on long necklaces strung with trinkets.
If in doubt, keep it tonal
An earthy palette brings a little ’70s charm to your autumn wardrobe. Mix shades of brown and beige for a tonal take on boho.
