How to build the perfect winter capsule wardrobe

John Lewis Milton Keynes is hosting a winter capsule wardrobe workshop on Tuesday 17 November, run by their personal styling team. It's held in the Style Studio on the ground floor of the store, which is at Marlborough Gate, MK9 3EP. The session starts at 5:00 PM.

The whole point is to get your winter wardrobe sorted before the real cold sets in. The stylists will walk you through the latest fashion finds and the key trends and must-have essentials shaping the season — think luxurious chunky knits and the ultimate layering pieces. They'll explain how to master cold-weather dressing and show you how to style hero pieces in several versatile ways, so you get more out of a few good items rather than a wardrobe full of things you only wear once. They'll also share their own favourites from the new collections, so you can see what they're actually picking for themselves.

It's a good one if you're not sure where to start with winter dressing or if you're looking to build a capsule that actually works. You'll get to meet the personal styling team in person, and there's a complimentary glass of fizz on arrival to kick things off. Tickets are £10, and that's redeemable against any fashion purchases you make on the day, so if you spot something you like during the session, it effectively comes out of the ticket price. It runs on Tuesday 17 November from 5:00 PM at the John Lewis Style Studio, ground floor, Marlborough Gate, MK9 3EP.
