It's still hot out now, but we're already dreaming of those crisp fall nights when we all crave some coziness (they'll be here before we know it!)—and nothing is more comforting than a great get-together with friends. But there’s an art to pulling that off so it feels special, yet looks effortless. It all starts with the spot where everyone comes together: your table.

To help you find your perfect tabletop elements (linens, serving pieces, and even the wine), we’ve put together three stylish looks, each sparked by an of-the-moment outfit for fall. Check them all out and get inspired to elevate your entertaining.

Effortless Elegance

Galvan blazer, $1,875; Galvan pants, $795; Minna runner, $78; Looks Like White salad plate, $50, and dinner plate, $70; Schoolhouse flatware set, $68; Uashmama wine chiller, $36; Château d’Esclans Whispering Angel rosé wine, $24.

A fitted white pantsuit with cutouts exudes breezy confidence, and that’s exactly what you want your fall table to convey too. Start with glossy white dishes and bold black matte flatware, grounding the look with a striped woven runner. Choose a laid-back wine chiller (made of sustainable washable paper) for your perfect vino: a fragrant rosé with floral and citrus notes and a delightfully dry finish.

Earthy Glamour

A shoulder-baring, asymmetrical sweater dress juxtaposes structure with a fancy flourish. Take the same approach with your table, pairing timeless linens and delicately curved glassware with a few unexpected pieces like paint-splatter plates and a gilded cake stand. The finishing touch: a smooth, fruity wine enhanced with herbal notes and hints of oak.

Sophisticated Whimsy

An artsy floral print and tiered skirt give this romantic silk dress a flouncy, playful vibe. That balance makes for a perfect party table too. Dress yours up with modern rimmed glassware, clean-lined metallic flatware, and barely-there blush napkins, and then top it with festive, shimmery plates. The perfect pour? A lush, expressive wine with notes of white cherry, peach, and raspberry.
