Ukrainian designer and stylist Andrei Tan revealed in an Instagram video which details are worth paying attention to when creating autumn looks. In his words, it is accessories, not clothing, that can refresh a basic wardrobe and turn an everyday outfit into an expressive "look." The list of recommendations, published by the Styler project (styler.rbc.ua), boils down to four key items of the season: large decorative earrings, a clutch, short leather gloves, and a silk scarf. Tan emphasizes that true style lies not in the number of expensive things, but in the ability to choose the very detail that changes the entire image.
Sculptural Earrings Instead of Minimalism
The first autumn trend the designer named is big, eye-catching earrings. In his assessment, minimalist jewelry is giving way to more decorative models, and especially relevant will be earrings with sculptural forms reminiscent of Schiaparelli-style ornaments. Such an accessory can become the main accent even in a simple look: a white shirt and jeans, complemented by expressive earrings, look fundamentally different from their "bare" version.
A Clutch Under the Arm: Italian Ease
The second item on the list is a clutch. Tan advises that this autumn a small bag should be carried not only in the hand but also under the arm. This styling approach adds a sense of ease to the look and echoes the Italian way of dressing, in which even a carefully crafted "look" should appear light and unobtrusive. At the same time, the clutch does not have to be restrained: an accent model on its own makes a basic outfit more interesting.
Short Leather Gloves to the Wrist
The third trend of the season is gloves. The designer recommends paying attention to short leather models that reach the wrist. The classic black option suits those who want to add elegance to their look, while bolder accents are permissible with bright gloves. According to Tan, even an ordinary grey coat can become a true fashion statement thanks to such a detail.
A Silk Scarf in Four Roles
The fourth item is a silk scarf, which, according to the designer's advice, should not be limited to the traditional way of wearing it around the neck. The scarf can be tied to a bag handle, used instead of a belt, or knotted around the wrist. In this way, the same accessory is styled differently, and each time a new look is created. It is precisely this versatility, in Tan's view, that makes the scarf one of the most practical elements of the autumn wardrobe.
The Philosophy of Style: The Detail Decides
Bringing all the recommendations together, Andrei Tan formulates the main idea: in autumn, attention should be paid not only to clothing but also to accessories. Large earrings, a clutch, short gloves, or a silk scarf can become the accent that makes even a basic outfit current and expressive. Style, by his logic, is not the sum of expensive purchases but a conscious choice of the right detail.
Contradictory Data
Fact-checking revealed a discrepancy in the dating of the season. The main Styler material dates Tan's recommendations to autumn 2026, however, a number of publications that retold the same stylist video date it to autumn 2025 (focus.ua, glavred.info), while even earlier publications (obozrevatel.com) refer to the autumn–winter 2024/25 season. This may mean that the original video was published earlier and then circulated again in the media in a new season, or that some sources made an error in the year. The four trends themselves — earrings, clutch, gloves, and scarf — match across all versions, so the discrepancy concerns only the link to a specific season.
