Autumn Window Display

Jo envisioned a stunning autumn window display that captures the essence of the season with its rich, neutral-toned textures. The theme focuses on creating a backdrop that allows the vibrant autumnal garments to truly shine.

Autumn is all about embracing the warm, earthy colours and tactile textures that make this season so special. From cosy wovens to crisp linens, we’ve carefully selected garments and materials that celebrate these very elements. Our collection highlights the beauty of autumn through a palette of comforting hues and textures, ensuring lots of inspiration to create your own garments with style and warmth.

Matchy-Matchy Horizon Day Dress

The Matchy-Matchy Horizon Day Dress is a firm favourite here at G&G, it is a perfect casual piece for autumn, combining an easy fit with plenty of style! We love the relaxed look of this garment with drop shoulder 3/4 length sleeves, that can be worn down or cuffed, and a curved bodice that sits just above the natural waistline, adding shape to its oversized silhouette for a flattering drape.

Our autumn version features a colour-blocked design using vintage Textured Cotton Fabric—a medium-weight cotton with a lovely, linen-like texture and a neutral tone.

Soft to the touch and easy to work with, this fabric makes the dress comfortable to wear and perfect for layering as the weather cools. We know that the Horizon Day Dress will be a great addition to your autumn wardrobe, offering both versatility and comfort for those transitional months.

Matchy-Matchy Archer Pants

The Matchy Matchy Archer Work Pants are a must-have on trend garment for winter! With a relaxed barrel shape, elastic waistband, and unique details like oversized patch pockets and knee darts, these pants combine comfort and style effortlessly. The cropped length and loose fit make them perfect for layering, while the distinctive silhouette keeps them on-trend this season.

Ideal for staying cosy and fashionable through the colder months!

We adore ramie linen not only for its gorgeous texture, perfect for all seasons, but also for how beautifully it holds its rich colours. This Rust rust-textured ramie Linen Blend is a stunning burnt orange with that subtle texture. Soft to the touch, this natural fibre fabric shares many of the same qualities as linen, making it great for the design of the Archer Work Pants.

True Bias Marlo Cardigan

The True Bias Marlo is the perfect cosy sweater for those in-between weather days. With its oversized fit, dropped shoulders, deep V-neck, and chunky buttons, it’s super easy to throw on when the temperature drops.

Made with a soft sweatshirt fabric like we have here, it’s comfy and warm, making it ideal for layering over your favourite T-shirts or even dresses. Whether you’re out and about or relaxing at home, the Marlo gives you that laid-back, effortlessly stylish look— which is why we love it for autumn layering!

This Cosy Colours Sage Multi Fleck Fleece Sweatshirt Fabric is perfect for cooler months, with a soft fleece backing that keeps you warm and comfortable. For this display, we chose the lovely sage green shade, with multi-coloured flecks that add a bit of extra character and depth.

The Cosy Colours Fabric is also an ideal weight for making jumpers, sweaters, hoodies, joggers, and zip-ups. Plus, it washes and wears beautifully, and is an absolute joy to sew with!

Sew Liberated Bedrock Tee

The Bedrock Tee is a true foundation piece and a great garment for building up your handmade wardrobe. Wear it tucked into trousers like we have here, layered under a strappy dress or paired with a light shirt.

The fabric we chose for this kit is a cotton and linen blend knit, which has the stability of a cotton jersey and a slubby linen texture. The elastane content in the fabric means it has good stretch and recovery, so won’t bag out during wear. The blend of natural fibres means that this fabric is breathable and lovely to wear all year round.

Vivian Shao Chen Nepheline Blouse

The Nepheline Blouse is a breezy blouse which has some lovely details to set it apart from a classic blouse.

The nepheline is fitted on the shoulders and loose through the body, with an A-line silhouette. The shaping can be easily slimmed down to your preference though - which Lauren discusses in her tips video! As we did on our white, black and ochre samples. The blouse length hits at hip height, allowing it to be worn untucked or tucked into high-waisted bottoms. We thought this was the most perfect addition to our autumnal window and hope it inspires you to create your own.

Megan Nielsen Flint Trousers

These wide-leg, cropped trousers are a great addition to your wardrobe. With a unique crossover closure at the side seam and a flattering natural waist fit, they’re both stylish and comfortable! Release tucks at the front and darts at the back add shape, while the slash pockets offer practicality.

This Muted Moss Bamboo Blended Twill Fabric is a stunning eco-friendly choice in a soft moss green hue. The fabric is incredibly soft with a slight stretch, making it both comfortable and practical.

Crafted from bamboo-blend twill, it’s not only breathable but also anti-crease, so your trousers will stay looking sharp throughout the day. Perfect for autumn, these trousers pair beautifully with cosy jumpers and boots, offering both style and versatility.

Wardrobe By Me Amelia Bomber Jacket

The Amelia Bomber Jacket paired with our specially dyed woven jacquard is a true statement piece for your wardrobe. A great item for between seasons, this fully lined jacket will be the perfect item to pull on when you’re trying to negotiate the constantly changing weather forecast!

The fabric for this kit is available in three colourways: sky, olive and black.

The outer fabric is a woven jacquard with a unique design. The back of the fabric is a reverse of the front design, meaning you could use this side and opt for a lighter coloured jacket if you’d prefer. The fabric hangs softly and has an almost bouncy texture. It is 60% cotton and 40% polyester.

For the lining we’ve chosen coordinating plain viscose twills. This fabric is smooth and drapey, but with a little stability due to the twill weave. It is 100% viscose.

Friday Pattern Company Avenir Jumpsuit

The Avenir Jumpsuit from Friday Pattern Company is the perfect blend of comfort and style and we thought it would be ideal for your autumn wardrobe! With its relaxed silhouette, billowy sleeves, and wide legs, it feels as cosy as pyjamas but is still stylish enough for a dinner out! The elasticated neckline and waist ensure an easy, flattering fit, while options for long or short sleeves let you customise it to your liking.

Our autumn window version features the Rust Meet Milk Smooth Drape Tencel Twill, which brings a luxurious softness and the most beautiful drape. The fabric’s breathable, eco-friendly qualities make it kind to the skin, and the rich rust colour stays vibrant wash after wash. This handmade garment will stand the test of time.

Designed for woven fabrics, the Avenir Jumpsuit can be made in anything from airy rayon or silk for a dressier feel to sturdy linen for everyday wear. But with the Tencel twill, you get a fabric that feels amazing, looks stunning, and pairs perfectly with the cooler weather, making it a fantastic make for the season.

The Details

The details in this window are a palette of natural tones, allowing the fabrics and garments to truly shine. Jo envisioned a display where the beauty of each me-made outfit speaks for itself, making the garments the true stars of the show. To complement this vision, the team crafted macrame hangings by hand, adding an artisanal touch that enhances the display's organic feel.
