Step out in style this autumn with our selection of clothing and accoutrements for the gentleman about town

1. Burberry Prorsum

Nowadays we menfolk have our equivalent of the statement bag. This season Burberry gives us this leopard-print tote in ponyskin. It is as functional as it is eye-catching.

2. O’Keeffe
