Esse founder and creative director Charlotte Hicks launched her brand with a singular vision: encouraging more mindful consumption. With designs rooted in a mindset of “investing in less, but making sure it’s right,” Esse unveils its collections in chapters, or as the brand refers to it, “Editions,” that are part of a larger story.

The designs that make up its pre-fall collection, Edition 13, explore themes of duality: structure and ease; masculine and feminine. The resulting pieces make for directional separates fit for a modern wardrobe. Between the leather jackets and skirts, fluid trousers, and gauzy mesh-trimmed dresses in a tight color palette of beige, black, cream, and burgundy, there’s plenty to build your transitional capsule around, and even wear for special occasions.
