Olivia Palermo Names Her Favorite Fall Wardrobe Pieces

Olivia Palermo has named a custom Gerald Charles watch, a Valextra handbag and a maxi dress among the pieces anchoring her fall 2026 wardrobe, according to a roundup published by the New York Post's Alexa section on Oct. 21. The entrepreneur, who lives in a 3,000-square-foot home in Tribeca, New York, that she recently furnished in collaboration with luxury interior design site Perigold, described her approach to dressing as "polished, eclectic and always evolving," per the New York Post.

What does Palermo say about her connection to Gerald Charles?

Palermo is an official "Friend of the Brand" for the Swiss watchmaker Gerald Charles, a title also held by her husband, Johannes Huebl, according to the Post. Her favorite timepiece from the fall edit is a custom Gerald Charles Maestro 8.0 Squelette, a rose-gold watch she received as a birthday gift.

"This watch was a very special gift for my birthday, so it holds a lot of meaning for me," Palermo told Alexa. "I was immediately drawn to the rose gold. It's one of those pieces I know I'll treasure for years." The watch is listed for sale through London Jewelers, per the outlet.

Palermo framed the appeal of fine watches beyond their function. "A watch is so much more than a way to tell time," she said. "Watches can mark a milestone, be passed down through generations or just be a beautifully crafted accessory that says something about your personal style."

Which handbag made her fall wardrobe list?

Palermo's featured bag is the MyLogo Bowling Medium Bag from Valextra. She credited its construction for making it a wardrobe staple rather than a seasonal purchase.

"The structure and craftsmanship of this bag make it feel incredibly timeless, and its simplicity means I can carry it with almost everything."

The line is sold through Valextra, according to the Post's roundup, which did not list a price for the piece.

What dress does Palermo recommend for day-to-night dressing?

For her "showstopper" pick, Palermo chose an Aqua x Nicky Hilton maxi dress, available at Bloomingdale's. She said the silhouette reflects a go-to category for her rather than a one-off statement piece.

"Something feminine and effortless, like a midi or maxi dress, is always my go-to," Palermo said. "It can so easily transition from day to evening. I'm obsessed with this one."

What other fall items appear in the edit?

The broader roundup from Alexa also features a pair of thigh-high boots from Italian footwear house Casadei, part of what the outlet describes as a look at Palermo's "autumn wardrobe essentials." The published excerpt of the interview was cut off before Palermo's comments on a featured fragrance, L'Art & La, were fully detailed in the material reviewed by HTT News.

How does Palermo describe her overall personal style?

Palermo, whose social media following the Post puts at nearly 10 million across platforms, said her style philosophy centers on contrast and proportion rather than a single aesthetic.

"I love mixing classic pieces with something unexpected, playing with proportion, texture and accessories," she said. "For me, style is really about knowing what works for you while still having fun with fashion."

The Tribeca-based entrepreneur's home collaboration with Perigold and her brand partnerships with Gerald Charles place the fall roundup within a broader pattern of lifestyle and design ventures she has pursued alongside her fashion commentary, according to the Post. The outlet did not report pricing for the Gerald Charles watch or indicate whether the custom rose-gold model is available for retail purchase beyond the gifted piece Palermo described.

No additional on-the-record sources were cited in the original Alexa interview beyond Palermo herself, and the Post's piece did not include comment from Gerald Charles, Valextra, Casadei or Bloomingdale's regarding the specific items featured.

Why is the fragrance entry incomplete in the published roundup?

The Post's layout lists a "Favorite Fragrance" category featuring a scent called L'Art & La, but the text accompanying that entry was truncated in the version of the Alexa roundup reviewed by HTT News. No quote from Palermo about the fragrance, its notes or its retailer appeared in the material available, leaving the item as a header without accompanying commentary.

The gap mirrors a pattern across the roundup: each featured item carries a brief first-person line from Palermo rather than independent reporting on sourcing, pricing or availability beyond what the retailers' listings show. The Post did not specify whether additional fragrance detail ran elsewhere in its Alexa section or in a related gallery.
