It is the start of the “Ber” months already, and the first few glimpses of the retail brands’ fall/winter collections are starting to roll out in stores. Up on their window displays and beside the lust-worthy outfits on the mannequins are the campaigns and look books where models are wearing the brand from head-to-toe.

The question, most of the time, is not just if they would actually look good on you, but how much it would actually cost to sport a single brand exclusively. Fear not! We put the price tags behind the photos in here just for you.

So whether you are already eyeing Zara’s complete retro look or, say, that ever-classic outfit at Uniqlo, already know how much it’s going to cost you before hitting the counters.

It pays to know—quite literally, this time.

Bohemian flares take over the spotlight in Zara—”Sophisticated Bohemian,” as they would put it. But this trend comes in more than just one iteration: there’s the 1970s bohemian, the rock-boho, and the retro bohemian. This particular look takes retro knitwear into the boho route. It hits the middle ground between the retro shape of the decade and bohemian influences that show in neutral colors. The season, after all, is a call to unify various genres and trends.

The Massimo Dutti woman knows her personal style but does not fail to neglect the trends of the season.

Set up in monochrome gray scheme, an easy prey to ubiquitous office dressing, she is decked with the easiest pieces of the season. Cop this full look for a more casual approach to workwear.

Having just recently opened here in Manila, Reiss already has five stores that serve “year-round dressing.” Tailoring takes center stage this fall where masculine shapes and construction help form a reinvented shape in silhouette. And if you’re feeling red and all its neighboring hues, here’s a look you can consider.

Reiss. Available at 3/F Shangri-la Plaza Mall, EDSA, corner Shaw Boulevard, Mandaluyong City. For more information and a full list of branches, visit their website.
