If there are two things we’re particularly good at over at Who What Wear HQ, it’s compiling the new-season trends that you need to know about and putting together curated shopping edits that we know you’ll love. So, as we look to the year ahead and consider the best pieces to buy and wear for the next 12 months (and beyond), the first place we look for inspiration is to the runways.
Fashion month might not always provide us with the most practical or wearable pieces (sorry, Loewe), but it does always manage to give us a new take on trends, and in 2022, the key takeaway was nostalgia. As many of the trends showcased were a continuation of those we loved from the previous spring/summer (like luxe leather, masculine tailoring and the ’90s redux), it was good news for our wardrobes and wallets, as we are always most interested in the key buys that will stand the test of time. Fashion is cyclical, after all. So, what we can expect from 2023?
Below I’ve picked out six timeless trends that are easy to incorporate into your wardrobe and will serve you for many years to come. Some are wardrobe staples with a modern update, others are the buzzier trends that resurface every couple of years, but still with the same impact as the very first time. In short, there’s something for everyone. So, if you’re planning a wardrobe refresh for the new year, don’t add anything to your cart until you’ve seen the six new fashion trends worth investing in now.
