Sophia Banks-Coloma is one of Australia’s great fashion exports. Based in LA, the mother of 4 year old Coco is on the fast-dial of such celebs as Chenoweth, Nicole Richie and Michelle Williams. She also designs costumes for movies, as well as her own fashion line, Whitley Kros (worn by Katy Perry, Blake Lively and Kate Hudson).
Yet among all that, she’s still got time to generously share her tips on what to hook into for the upcoming season. And happily, some of them you’ll be guaranteed to already have in your wardrobe.
Here are Sophia’s top 5 wardrobe essentials for Autumn 2013.
1. Black & White
“Black and white is a huge trend, so mixing them is a must-do. Try a black leather top, black jeans and a white pointed toe shoe” advised Banks-Coloma.

2. Pointed Toe Shoes
Pointed toe shoes are coming right back into all wardrobes with no platform. Black and white are a must-have.”
3. The Peplum Top
“Add a peplum top into your wardrobe to create some dramatic volume,” said Sophia “and throw it on with leather leggings to give a flattering shape.”

“A nice thing to have for this season is the blazer, and there is nothing I love more than a touch of red… sexy yet classy!” winked Sophia
5. The White Shirt
Wear it with jeans, black leather leggings or some great wide-leg pants – this classic is making a come back.”
