Boy meets girl

Offset the romance of autumn’s flowing maxi dresses with a boyish blazer. Softly tailored styles create a flattering silhouette, while narrow lapels and single-breasted designs slim down a bigger bust. Pick from bold tartans, preppy plaids, checks and tweeds – and wear it with everything. Blazer, £48, 6-22, Next. Dress, £65, 8-28, Elvi. Boots, £179, 3-8, Carvela
