Sassa de Osma’s Autumn-Ready Look in Switzerland
While much of the international elite is currently chasing the final rays of summer along the Mediterranean, Sassa de Osma has opted for a serene retreat in the Swiss mountains. The cooler alpine climate has provided the perfect backdrop for her to transition her wardrobe, trading lightweight summer dresses for a layered, cozy aesthetic that feels like a stylish preview of the upcoming autumn season.
The centerpiece of her ensemble is an artisanal, oversized cardigan in warm brown tones, accented with delicate green and pink floral embroidery. This piece, which will soon be available through her own brand, Philippa 1970, perfectly captures the rustic, handcrafted appeal she is known for. By layering this over multiple fine-knit pink sweaters, she creates a sophisticated play on volume and texture that is both practical and chic.
A Masterclass in Transitional Styling
Sassa balances the warmth of her knitwear with high-waisted, deep blue denim jeans featuring a subtle flared cut. This silhouette, reminiscent of 1970s fashion, adds a structured, vintage edge to the outfit. To define her waist, she incorporates a dark brown leather belt with gold hardware, grounding the look in earthy, classic tones.
Perhaps the most intriguing element of her outfit is the choice of footwear: brown mesh loafers. These shoes serve as a bridge between seasons, offering the coverage of a closed shoe while maintaining the breathability required for late August. The mesh texture adds a layer of visual interest that prevents the heavier knit layers from feeling too dense.
To complete the look, she carries the Trama Bag in ‘Mocha Suede’ from her label, MOI&SASS. Its structured bucket design and intricate cross-stitching reinforce the artisanal theme of the outfit. Whether worn over the shoulder or carried by hand, the bag’s rich color ties the entire palette together.
Personal Touches and Accessories
Sassa’s attention to detail is evident in her accessories. She keeps her hair pulled back with a pink clip and wears a striking necklace featuring a black heart pendant. In some instances, she elevates the ensemble with a vibrant fuchsia printed headscarf, which adds a playful, countryside-inspired contrast to the more muted tones of her clothing.
By blending artisanal knitwear, classic denim, and unexpected footwear, Sassa de Osma demonstrates how to navigate the shift between seasons with elegance. Her Swiss holiday wardrobe serves as a reminder that the transition to autumn is the perfect time to experiment with layering and rich, earthy textures.
