Dare we say that Autumn is nearly upon us? This, of course, means we’re looking ahead to what our new-season wardrobes might look like. And, whilst trends are popping up like the new deer print overtaking the high street, suede making its triumphant return, and browns reigning supreme, it’s all about those key transitional items that will make it easier to turn our backs on summer and embrace what’s to come. One item in particular that has got shoppers going crazy is none other than a new launch from high street hero M&S. The Suedette Collared Peplum Utility Jacket, which retails for just £68, is already selling out in various sizes online and is being compared to designer quality for much less. The jacket is available in both grey and tan, so whether you’re a monochrome fan or neutral lover, both pack huge versatility, easily pairing with whatever you wear them with. The design of this jacket makes it a true transitional outerwear hero, as it’s crafted from soft suedette, which makes it perfect for those cooler days when the weather doesn’t know what to do with itself. You’ll need to be quick to get your hands on this jacket. (Picture: Metro/M&S) A bonus point of the Suedette Collared Peplum Utility Jacket is the contrasting woven collar, another key trend for accessories this season, so it will effortlessly match with other woven finds. The two patch pockets on the chest give it a utilitarian edge and somewhere to store your lip gloss when in need of a quick touch-up on the go, or essentials like keys or headphones. But besides this, it’s unique selling point, and the part we’re most excited about is the internal drawcord that cinches in the waist, making the jacket take on a whole different personality and style. Not only does this allow you to highlight your natural waist and curves, but it adds a decorative design by creating a peplum-style hem that has also been making a triumphant return to our wardrobes throughout 2026. We are obsessed with how this looks on. (Picture: Metro/M&S) Ask Metro Use AI to go deeper into the stories you care about – powered by Metro and trusted publications.
