Topshop’s new 2008 Autumn/Winter collection displays an enticing line of oversized tops, tights, skinny pants and chunky ankle boots.

The overriding colour is black with a splash of striking bright colours to balance the look. Also in stores are knitwear, palette, capes, chiffons, and leather items.

The four main looks for the season display gothic undertones, military styles, brilliant colours and fine knits.

Darkside is a darkly romantic collection with gothic undertones that emphasises intricate detailing. 

Bandstand is an irreverent and quirky take on Military styles, frogging, cord-roping and brass buttons appear on Majorette coats and soft woollen tasselled jackets.  

Wonderland is a joyful collection of brilliantly coloured, rich fabrics in exaggerated shapes which have a dressed-up, Mad Hatters tea party feel. 

Sedition features oversized, soft checked coats in hairy yarns and intarsia mohair knits which envelop the wearer while black leather, puppy tooth and tartan pencil skirts or flat front tapered jeans strike a slimmed silhouette.
