Now that autumn is creeping up on us, it’s a great time to dive into your wardrobe to see what you need to restock. Do you need new knitwear? A new transitional dress? A weather-appropriate pair of boots? The perfect go-with-everything jacket? Free People has plenty of fresh styles that fit the bill. From clothing to accessories, we’ve put together a list of must-haves from Free People’s new arrivals section.
You’ll find a mix of products, many from Free People’s fan-favourite collections like FP Movement, We The Free and Free-est, to suit whatever vibe you’re going for this autumn. Once you’ve perused our roundup, only one question will remain: How to choose your favourite?

We The Free Soho Convertible Sling, £108
Whether you’re prepping for a festival, a holiday or a day in the city, you need this bag in your life. It switches seamlessly from a crossbody sling to a mini backpack, and the soft leather will only get better with age.

FP One Clover Skirt, £98
On the agenda this autumn: dressing like a forest fairy frolicking through the trees and foraging for blackberries. You’ll need this perfect twirling skirt in a deep, mossy green.

FP Movement Out Of Your League Leggings, £88
They may be expensive but FP Movement’s leggings are well worth it. This pair is designed to fit like a glove, with four-way stretch and a mid-to-low compression that’s perfect for yoga or low-impact activities. Alternatively, they’re buttery soft and silky enough to wear just for mooching around the house. Our favourite features are the high waist, side pockets and the ruching at the ankles (and this pumpkin spice shade, which just screams autumn).

FP Collection After Riding Mules, £128
The chicness of ’70s suede moccasins meets the ease of the modern slider, creating a softer, more feminine alternative to the current Birkenstock craze. Roll up your jeans and wear with woolly socks to really show off these bad boys.
FP Collection After Riding Mules, $, available at Free People
We The Free Gigi Long Sleeve, £58
We all need a goes-with-everything-and-works-for-any-occasion top. The Gigi Long Sleeve gets our vote. It’s easily dressed down with your fave jeans or up with a slinky slip skirt.

If, like us, Rory Gilmore’s perfectly slouchy, oversized, cream cable-knit jumper lives rent-free in your mind, then this one’s for you. Accessorise with a steaming cup of coffee and a stack of your favourite books.
Free People Frankie Cable Sweater, $, available at Free People
We The Free Denim Cargo Skort, £88

Free People Carmen Vegan Suede Duster, £188
We’re saving this duster for those rare, crisp but sunny autumn days (you don’t want to risk suede in the rain!). The slouchy cut makes for a cool contrast to our rotation of flowy midi and maxi dresses.

FP Movement Breathe Deeper Crop Tank, £44
We love a fashion item that doubles up so let us introduce you to our latest obsession: an FP Movement crop that works hard for your yoga workout but also looks great with a high-waisted skirt and biker boots for a night out.

FP Movement Quilted Carryall, £68
This bag holds so much: your laptop, book, lunchbox and umbrella for the commute; gym kit; weekend staycation essentials. It’s designed with lots of handy pockets, too, which are perfect for stashing away smaller items. We’re so glad that Free People has brought it back in a whole new range of colourways, especially the seasonally appropriate burnt orange, earthy brown and sage green.

Free People Slim Pull-On Velvet Flare Pants, £78
When it gets colder, the last thing you want to think about is squeezing into an uncomfortable waistband. Instead, slip into this pair of velvet-soft, pull-on flares. The striped design will make your legs look inches longer.

FP Movement Singin’ In The Rain Packable Jacket, £158
A packable raincoat is key for beating those autumn showers. FP Movement’s Singin’ In The Rain Jacket is boxy and loose enough to allow for plenty of layers underneath without compromising on style.
FP Movement Singin’ In The Rain Packable Jacket, $, available at Free People
Free-est Rosalia Long-Sleeve Low-Back Mini, £60
Presented with the very difficult task of choosing just one dress from Free People’s New In section, this is what we selected. Deceptively simple, the ultra-low scoop back, slightly flared sleeve and mini cut scream elegance. We can imagine a 1960s Jane Birkin rocking it with knee-high boots and a classic basket bag.
free-est Rosalia Long-Sleeve Low-Back Mini, $, available at Free People
FP Collection Idle Hands Sling, £88
If your Uniqlo crossbody is looking a little worse for wear this side of summer, then consider investing in Free People’s leather alternative. It’ll last you years longer.
