A curated roundup of the best new fashion arrivals, hand-picked by our editors
Preppy style had a huge influence on how we wanted to dress in 2024, and 2025 is set to be no different, as collegiate polos and outdoorsy field jackets offer an easy means of mastering chic off-duty style. NET-A-PORTER’s acting content editor Colleen Ross has her eye on Guest In Residence’s rugby-style cashmere sweater. “There’s nothing better than slipping on a cozy knit at the weekend – the softer and slouchier, the better,” says Ross. “Ticking both boxes, Guest In Residence’s polo sweater is spun from impossibly soft cashmere and has an easy, oversized fit. I love how the sporty stripes add color and personality to the classic design, making it a great way to elevate casual denim.” Pair it with fashion editor-favorite Agolde’s low-rise wide-leg jeans in black. With a subtle curved silhouette, they’re designed to sit on the hip and will pair perfectly with ballet flats and Chelsea boots alike.
Another piece that is both timely and timeless is Polo Ralph Lauren’s soft suede jacket. With boho style also big on the fashion agenda for 2025, this is a piece that lends a laid-back yet polished feel to your look. Shrug it on over a cashmere turtleneck with straight-leg jeans, kitten-heel boots and By Pariah’s ‘Triple Hoops’ earrings – a NET-A-PORTER exclusive – for any ‘dressy-casual’ festive events in your diary. Bottega Veneta’s ‘Hop’ tote in light brown, made using the brand’s signature intrecciato technique, will complement its soft tan shade, creating a warm winter palette. On festive walks, pop Dior Eyewear’s oval sunglasses inside to ensure you’re ready if the sun chooses to peek through the clouds.
Finally, if you haven’t already started planning your vacation bucket list for 2025, let a generous spritz of Astier de Villatte's ‘Grand Chalet’ cologne encourage a ski trip in Switzerland. Inspired by painter Balthus’s atelier in the Swiss alps, its top notes of honey, milk and lemon, with hints of blond wood and vanilla beneath, create a warm and soothing scent. If you’ve yet to complete your gift list, it also makes for a brilliant last-minute gift for someone special.
