The Best New Season Fashion Brands And Buys Of 2023

By avi maxwel / in , , , /

It’s time to start looking ahead to autumn, which means packing away summer essentials like swimwear and sandals and digging out – or purchasing – pieces that’ll last throughout the new season. Nothing looks as polished as a well-tailored suit, and this chocolate brown style from Cos, comprised of wide-leg pleated trousers and a double-breasted blazer, is the perfect example. (Add Miu Miu’s patent penny loafers for peak smart appeal.) If you’re looking to invest in vintage, visit the pre-loved bag offering that has just dropped at Matches, launched in partnership with the resale specialist, Sellier, and features hero styles from Chanel and Hermès.

Speaking of autumn investments – The Row’s signature Margaux bag is back in stock (and flying out of the warehouse!) at Net-a-Porter. The brand’s minimalist tote is a bestseller, beloved for its timeless silhouette. Knitwear, too, is another important investment for autumn: we’ve got our eye on Vince’s cornflower-blue turtleneck, which pairs well with Acne Studios’s floor-sweeping denim maxi skirt and Gianvito Rossi’s eyelet-adorned ballet flats.

Over the past year, the royal has displayed a series of flawless ensembles, featuring impeccably tailored coats, chic trouser suits and glamorous dresses.

Gone are the previously cluttered details and hastily assembled outfits, replaced instead by a meticulously curated wardrobe.

Zara’s penchant for colour was particularly evident when she attended the Easter Mattins service at Windsor Castle last year.

Her ‘Payton’ dress, with its figure-skimming silhouette and decorative buttons, was the perfect choice for the joyous occasion.

Moreover, the audacious hue accentuated her radiant complexion.

The following month, Zara showcased her sartorial prowess at the coronation of King Charles III and Queen Camilla.

She selected a charming pastel blue ensemble, featuring a custom-made coat dress by Laura Green.
