The Chicest Trans-Seasonal Pieces To Update Your Look Now
We round up the sleekest trans-seasonal styles guaranteed to refresh your look – and earn a space in your forever closet
Denim for days
Denim is many things – hardworking, reliable, effortlessly cool – but it’s rarely considered to be the star of the show, until now. From our NET SUSTAIN edit, Chloé’s jacket features charming, puffed sleeves and medallion-embellished chains at the pockets, which make it feel like a genuine vintage find. Meanwhile, in line with its ongoing commitments to responsibly made fashion, Citizens of Humanity’s ‘Nora’ jeans (another NET SUSTAIN highlight) are made using recycled cotton and come in a classic, straight-leg shape. White denim isn’t just for summer, so consider Nili Lotan’s barrel-leg ‘Tribeca’ jeans a year-round investment. Take cues from the street-style set and wear yours now with an oversized coat, red socks and loafers.

The oversized shirt
From diaphanous chiffons to crisp cotton-poplins, this season, oversized shirts come in a host of different fabrics (and colors). Look to Comme Si for timeless styles you’ll wear time and again – the brand’s navy design looks just as chic worn loose with jeans as it does tucked into tailoring. The same goes for Ossou’s ‘Haze’ style from our exclusive edit, which has a top-stitched collar and sculptural fluted sleeves. Elsewhere, TWP and Toteme prove you can’t go wrong with stripes. The latter’s silk-twill style is patterned with classic vertical lines but comes in bright blue for a touch more oomph. To ensure optimum versatility, put your shirt to work between seasons by layering a turtleneck underneath or a cashmere knit knotted nonchalantly around the shoulders.

The novelty knit
A statement knit is the personality piece every wardrobe needs. Guaranteed to make an impact yet easy to style, the best versions come in unmissable paintbox brights that will elevate everyday denim and other casual separates. Stella McCartney’s oversized crew neck from our NET SUSTAIN edit is made from responsibly sourced wool and depicts a horse in honor of the Lunar New Year. Whereas, &Daughter’s ‘Rosha’ knit celebrates the joy of stripes, rendering them in cherry-red and lemon-yellow hues.

The lightweight jacket
While it’s true that tricky trans-seasonal weather often calls for a jacket that can be thrown on over anything, your last-minute layer should look just as good as the rest of your outfit. From our NET SUSTAIN edit, Lemaire’s aviator jacket is crafted from chocolate-brown leather and will add instant elegance to outfits – balance the relaxed shape proportionally with high-rise, wide-leg pants or an A-line midi skirt. Other beautiful pieces from our edit, which you’ll still adore wearing in five years’ time, include Burberry’s cropped trench, which comes in an elegant, classic beige and Arma’s ‘Emy’ jacket in supple gray suede.

Ballet flats
The perfect flat shoe does exist. Comfortable, practical and stylish – what’s not to love about fashion’s current obsession with going low? Once again topping the wish lists of fashion editors and content creators in every major fashion city this season is the ballet flat. The epitome of timeless style, The Row’s flats are crafted from lustrous velvet and will add polish to every outfit. Wear them in the evening with relaxed tailoring or a midi dress. Alternatively, make a statement in Gucci’s horsebit-embellished canvas-jacquard pair.

The does-it-all dress
The key to any well-curated closet is to add pieces that really go the extra mile between seasons. Do-it-all dresses are the kind that are light enough to layer with knitwear or an oversized jacket when there’s still a chill in the air, but will easily make an impact on their own, too. Toteme’s drop-waist ‘Twinflower’ dress comes in a gorgeous tomato-red shade, while Tove’s ‘Vanja’ maxi is perfect if you prefer prints. For optimum versatility, go for classic black – Jil Sander’s midi dress is cut from figure-skimming crepe with a classic polo collar and works with loafers, boots and sandals alike.
