Zara's Cheaper Line Is Suddenly So Edgy, It's Almost Unrecognisable
Don't get us wrong, we've always had a soft spot for Zara's cheaper TRF line (and many bloggers rate it as a destination point in-store), but within the past few days, the entire outlook of this section has undergone a major overhaul… And we're hooked.
TRF was always kind of younger, cuter and sillier. But now it's edgy to the maximum, featuring more tracksuits than a Vetements convention, more layers than a Korean street style guru, and more standout accessories than Anna Dello Russo on a global tour. In short, there's a far more directional approach and that's manifested itself in one key way: an extensive mental shopping list that is probably about to become a reality as we type…
Snapped on the backstreets of New York, a perfectly kick-ass set of models showcase the line's pieces that were made for piling on: a bumbag worn across the body here, a tulle dress over jeans there, tights layered under lace-up shoes or unexpected combinations of high-low mixes like hoodies with velvet trousers and faux fur or track pants with stacked platform boots.
Love the campaign? Then you need to shop our best bits—go through the gallery below to discover them…
Scarlet red jumbo eyelets? This is way beyond your average hoodie.
This is an A/W 16 styling trick: Layer a lightweight nude roll-neck under any velvet dress.
Yes, this is an excuse to wear your summer dress later on with a blazer and boots.
+ Zara TRF Elastic Waist Trousers (£18)Nothing more comfortable on this fine earth.
For a more tailored take on trackies, we'd opt for these. Do you like Zara TRF's new look? See more of the campaign and collection here.
