The Outnet’s Epic Clearance Sale Just Started—Here Are My Best Buys
There’s almost nothing we love more than a designer sale drop—especially when the edit is filled with time-tested high-end gems. In case you didn’t know, The Outnet‘s massive sale is here, and there’s up to 80% off. So, yes, it’s a particularly joyous day here at Who What Wear UK. We know from our inside sources that the majority of pieces in the discounted edit have such a low depth of stock that it’s common to only find one of each piece (that’s one of each piece, people). To help you find the best pieces first, we have combed through the lot to bring you the best of the bunch, with plenty of key pieces for the rest of 2021 and beyond. However, this clearance is arguably best for wardrobe staples. Highlights include&...
Katie Holmes Just Sold 2021’s Anti–Skinny Jean Trend to Me
While traditionally the beginning of the year marks award show season with red carpets taking place on almost a weekly basis, it comes as no surprise that January 2021 looks a little different to year’s past. With fancy events and exclusive premieres off the cards for the foreseeable future, we are no longer looking to celebrity style and seeing custom-made designer gowns or shimmering jewels with eye-wateringly high price tags. No, the celeb style of 2021 is far more attainable and honestly, we’re not complaining. Of course, when it comes to star style Katie Holmes is on the top of our watch list, thanks to her running streak of fabulous casual ensembles. While in previous years, Katie Holmes would spend January walking red carpets in designs by ...
The Queen’s Gambit: Anya Taylor-Joy Got to Keep Beth’s Costumes, and Can We Please Be Her?
The Queen’s Gambit is Netflix’s most watched series to date. Chess master Beth Harmon (played by Anya Taylor-Joy) captivated viewers with her wit, passion, and intensity, but it was her ’60s wardrobe designed and sourced by costumer Gabrielle Binder that gave the series its iconic element. Wonder where the costumes are now? Taylor-Joy stopped by The Late Show With Stephen Colbert to share how she was gifted all of her character’s outfits, her affinity with Beth Harmon, and why she sadly won’t be able to wear any of those gorgeous clothes. “When I first read the book, I was so in love with Beth, instantly”, Taylor-Joy told Colbert. “And I think people follow passion, so I felt impassioned by chess when I finished reading the book. However, tha...
The Serpent: How to Steal Monique’s Sultry and Bohemian ’70s Style
BBC’s new true-crime series The Serpent takes us on a journey of glamour, seduction, and murder. It follows the story of ’70s French serial killer Charles Sobhraj (played by Tahar Rahim) who goes by the name “Alain” and his menacing partner-in-crime girlfriend Marie-Andrée Leclerc (played by Jenna Coleman) who goes by “Monique.” While the pair prey on Western tourists traveling in Southeast Asia, Monique uses her charm and fashion sense to lure in unsuspecting victims — and although we absolutely condemn her predatory behaviour, we know exactly how to copy her sultry French-bohemian style. In the 1970s, the ideal fashion look included flared, high-waisted blue jeans or trousers secured with a wide belt. Oversize sunglasses were also very popular, as well...
I’m Obsessed With Skincare, But This Unassuming £11 Product Is My Most Coveted
No, it doesn’t look like much, and no, it doesn’t smell like a spa and no it absolutely does not promise to totally fix your every skin concern overnight. However, it does remove every last trace of dirt and makeup from your face with zero fuss. It also smells somewhat comforting and promises to totally change the way you approach your evening skincare routine due to how remarkably easy and fuss-free it is to use. The state of my skin has been a real annoyance over the last few years—sometimes it would be plagued with spots, while a few weeks later, it would switch in a second and become insufferably dry. With some products only worsening the issue, this situation has made the process of selecting skincare a little difficult to say the least. My only constant throughout the last four or so...
This Is the Only Place I Buy My Affordable Cashmere From
Buying cashmere is a rite of passage for grown-ups, but you needn’t completely break the bank to add some luxury to your wardrobe. I’ve been fortunate to have cashmere from high-end designers as well as Marks and Spencer, and I can confirm that the high-street retailer’s iterations have held up just as well (if not better) than those with plush price tags. Too good to keep to myself, I’ve decided to share with you my edit of the very best Marks and Spencer cashmere jumpers—from cable knits and step hems to classic crews and roll-necks in every shade from camel to raspberry. Simply tuck them into everything (satin skirts, high-waist jeans, checked trousers, etc.) for the perfect winter ensemble. You Deserve to Make Money Even When you ...
2021 Has a New Set of Styling Rules
We’re not the type of editorial team that shrieks “all change!” as soon as a new season or new year comes along. We’re always keen to uncover trends, of course, but in reality, you’ll be much more likely to find us in a group DM discussing new ways to wear old things and how to shop the latest looks from vintage and secondhand stores or honing our classic fashion-finding skills to secure some long-lasting forever buys. And you certainly won’t discover content on Who What Wear that encourages you to carelessly ditch everything from last year just because the calendar has switched to 2021. However, if some newness comes free of charge, then that’s an altogether different and alluring prospec...
The One Jumper Style I Wear More Than Any Other in Winter
Whether it’s because of our communal craving for all things cosy or a continuation of 2020’s ‘Cottagecore‘ trend, the cable knit jumper has fast become a wintery go-to in the wardrobes of fashion’s finest. Offering plenty of hand-spun, artisanal appeal, it’s a knitwear trend that I wear more than any other in the winter months, and it’s my favourite way to add texture to everything from classic denim to tailored trousers.

These 3 Princess Diana Items Started Trending Again Thanks to The Crown
It hardly comes as a surprise that The Crown season four has reignited the world’s fascination with all things Princess Diana. Perfectly encapsulating the royal’s natural charm, Emma Corrin’s depiction of Lady Di was nothing short of fascinating. And of course, along with our renewed interest in Diana’s life has come a renewed interest in her ever-adored personal style. Season four predominantly takes places throughout the 1980s, depicting the early years of Prince Charles and Princess Diana’s marriage. It was an era in which shoulder pads and feathered hair reigned supreme, and as the fashion-conscious royal she was, Diana partook in several of the decade’s most iconic styles.

This Meghan Markle Hairstyle Is So Chic and Only Takes 5 Minutes
Just like everyone else on the planet, we’re fascinated by Meghan Markle. Her life is endlessly interesting (marrying a prince will do that), but it’s her tried-and-true beauty wardrobe that piques our interest over and over again. Even now, as she’s transitioned from royal life to civilian living in California, Markle’s beauty looks have remained true to her minimalist approach to beauty. And of all the staple looks the former duchess continues to wear on repeat, easy updo hairstyles top the list. We know the word “updo” might make you think of stiff, overdone bridesmaid hair, but Markle’s take on the classic style is far from stuffy. Just like the rest of her beauty routine, she tends to keep it simple with elegant buns secured at the n...
The “Naked” Dress Trend Your 2021 Wardrobe Is Crying Out For
“Across the collections, we saw designers playing with the idea of a ‘naked dress,’ using slinky silhouettes, body-con, and racy cutouts, however, it was the black dresses that really stood out to us—and buyers,” says Who What Wear UK editor Emma Spedding. “According to Moda Operandi, Jacquemus’s black slip dress was its top-selling piece from the pre-orders. Designers such as Khaite and Victoria Beckham created dresses that played with cutouts on the neckline, strap detailing, and a mix of knits and light fabrication. This is a post-lockdown dress to have in your wardrobe on standby for your first drinks party when you want to wear something truly fabulous.” If you’re in any need of further encouragement, scroll below to see the sexy bl...
