Claudia Winkleman's stylist has curated a Traitors-inspired autumn edit for FatFace - it's even better than I imagined
Sinead McKeefry is the queen of cosy autumn style
Is everyone excited for the new series of The Celebrity Traitors? Undoubtedly one of the best things about the show is host Claudia Winkleman's wardrobe, which, with the help of superstar stylist Sinead McKeefry has become a character in its own right over the years.
Together they created a unique look that mixes countrycore with gothic romance - which just so happens to be one of the biggest autumn/winter fashion trends for 2026. Think checks, capes, wellies and the cosiest, chunkiest knitwear.
And now Sinead is bringing the look to the high street, teaming up with British clothing brand FatFace with her very own edit, which is available to buy now and starts from just £28.50. It captures the Traitors spirit perfectly, but if I had to pick a few favourites, I predict the check barn jacket and allotment print knit will fly off the virtual shelves first...

This is my favourite piece. I can totally imagine Claudia arriving at breakfast in the Traitors castle wearing this with skinny jeans and chunky boots. It's perfect for layering up, and it's available in UK sizes 6 to 24.
An ankle-grazing dress like this is one of the most versatile pieces you can add to your autumn capsule wardrobe. Wear it with your best white trainers for sunny September days, switching to knee-high boots and knitwear layered over the top when the temperature drops.
Checks are crucial to achieving the Highlandcore look. This kilt-style midi skirt is a much more interesting alternative to your favourite jeans, and it will move beautifully when you walk.
I love barn jacket season, and this one will work for both countryside walks and morning commutes in the city. It's available in regular or petite lengths, and it's packed with practical pockets.
Another classic Claudia knit, you'll be reaching for this cable cardigan long into next year. The slightly scalloped edges are a really pretty touch, and the neutral cream colour will work with everything.
Talk about getting two for the price of one. This dress boasts both a check print midi and a knitted vest to wear over the top. Is it too late to change my mind about my favourite piece in the collection? This is seriously good.
An easy pairing for your favourite jeans, this gingham shirt will work seriously hard in your wardrobe. So many brands tend to focus on trousers when it comes to petite sections, but actually this top is available in both regular and petite - genius!
Available in four lengths from short to extra long, these smart trousers feature a subtle check print. Don't be afraid to clash prints, too - try adding stripes or florals for a maximalist look.
This skirt is selling quickly, and it's easy to see why. It's got an elasticated waist so it's super comfortable, and I love how it's styled on the model with a pair of loafers to mix tailoring and boho chic.
If you're only going to buy one piece from the edit, this little triangle scarf will do wonders for your autumn wardrobe. It sounds so simple, but wearing this tied around the shoulders of your trench coat will immediately update your look.
Rainy weather doesn't necessarily have to mean compromising on style. I love the rich ochre colour and practical hood on this coat, and it's even got a heritage check lining.
Ok now I'm excited for cold weather. The rich plum colour of this jacket will brighten up even the greyest of days, and the orange check lining adds a bold pop of colour.
To help with styling ideas, Sinead shared her top 5 tips for putting together autumn outfit ideas with FatFace:
1. Build your outfit through layering
"I used a lot of layering throughout my FatFace edit. Think a shirt with a tank top, then a knit or gilet, finished with an overcoat, wax jacket or parka. It means you can peel a layer off as the day changes, tie it around your waist and still keep all those beautiful textures, colours and fabrics working together."
2. Mix textures with confidence
"Don't be afraid to mix textures and patterns. I love pairing herringbone with flecked knitwear or heritage prints with folk-inspired patterns. They're all part of the same family of timeless fabrics, so they naturally work beautifully together."
3. Invest in timeless pieces
"For me, classic style is all about pieces that stand the test of time. That's what I loved about styling the FatFace collection. The cables, tweeds, wax jackets, Donegal knits and plaid shirts all have that heritage feel. They're not just for one season. They're the kind of pieces you'll wear for years and even pass down through generations."
4. Don't shy away from colour
"Be brave with colour. What FatFace does so well is use beautifully muted tones that feel easy to wear. Pair a rich orange knit with smudgy navy or khaki and suddenly it feels grounded, wearable and unmistakably autumnal. Colour can make you look healthier, feel more confident and bring a real sense of joy."
5. Finish with thoughtful details
"Accessories instantly elevate a look. Printed scarves, socks, hats, gloves or jewellery all add personality and create a more considered outfit. They're the pieces you'll keep in your wardrobe forever and bring out year after year. And my final tip? Don't underestimate the power of feeling good before you get dressed. Whether it's a manicure, good skincare or simply taking a moment for yourself, a smile really is the best accessory."
