This Is What the High Street Is Getting Right This Winter
A couple of theBest Knockoff Luxury Clothing editors and I were discussing the high street's A/W 21 trends the other day, and the main thing we noted was how similar they were to last year's offering. And you know what? It really is a breath of fresh air. Scroll through any new-in category right now, and you'll see plenty of cold-weather heroes: puffer coats, chunky boots, crew-neck knits and clean-lined tailoring. The emphasis seems to be on classics over gimmicks and versatility over novelty. Has the concept of trends taken a bit of a bashing over the last 12 months? Undoubtedly, and it shows.
So what does this mean for our relationship with the new season? Well, it simply means that there's less of a chance that you'll be craving large quantities of newness, as you'll most likely already have many of the items sitting in your wardrobe. We recommend that you use our high-street edit as a way to curate your capsule and inspire your winter outfit pairings, whether it's reaching for those knee-high boots or layering up collared knits and quilted coats. However, if you do discover a gap, then we think that the below pieces will tick both the form and function boxes now and for many years to come. Ready to go?
