SEPTEMBER BRINGS THAT back-to-school feeling, even if you’ve long left the academic calendar behind.

This year round, Pharrell has captured the essence of autumn’s scholarly mood with a collection of Louis Vuitton uniforms.

Crest-adorned blazers, rugby shirts, cricket jumpers, striped ties – you know the score – all finished in failsafe autumn hues, such as bark brown, burgundy and navy blue.

For pupils of Professor P. Williams, the musician-turned-designer’s lookbook for the transitional term offers a masterclass in styling, presenting fresh ways to sport familiar academic staples.

Some bullet points for you word learners.

  • Elevate your classic shirt and tie combo by turning up the shirt collar.
  • Unlock the menswear potential of a skirt by pairing it with a varsity jacket.
  • Don’t shy away from mixing stripes and tartans for a bold statement.
  • Embrace a maths-to-PE look with a double-breasted blazer on top and comfortable joggers and sneakers on the bottom.
  • Layer a striped shirt over a(nother!) shirt and tie, all worn under a two-piece suit for a truly unique ensemble.

And for those who prefer pictures, here’s the complete look book.
