It's officially autumn here in Australia, and as we mark the end of another mammoth couple of weeks keeping track of fashion month and announcement (hello Barry Keoghan for Burberry, and Phoebe Philo's second label drop), there are still plenty of things to catch you up on this week. From NY fashion brands branching out as Indonesian restauranteurs, to Aussie favourites announcing warehouse sales and free coffee initiatives (say no more!). There's a bright new ambassador for one of our favourite timepiece connoisseurs, a new line of classics for a British fashion label and a move to Ready-to-Wear for a Sydney one.

Below, check out all the fashion moments and news stories you might have missed this week.
