Experts Tell Me These Engagement-Ring Trends Will Dominate Next Year

“Many of our clients are opting for colour for their engagement rings, which great to see, with some going for completely untraditional looks. We are finding customers are mixing and matching, seeking alternative options; choosing a mix of coloured gemstones and different cuts that work together in harmony within one ring which, perhaps, wouldn’t initially be your first thought for an engagement ring,” says Laura Kay, creative director of Tomfoolery London. “More than ever, clients are searching for something different to traditional engagement rings, with the brief being for a piece that will stand out from the crowd. Coloured stones do this perfectly. I have found that the main request from my clients is for vibrant coloured stones rather than diamonds,” enligh...

Trust Us–These Are the Buzzy Brands We’ll All Be Talking About in 2023

If you were to look through the Who What Wear group chat, there are a few things you would almost certainly see. In among the breakdown of celebrity looks, memes and White Lotus discussion, we also love to talk the brands that are particularly having “a moment”. Viral success can come from a few things, usually a runway hit, award nod, TikTok feature or street style approval, but manage to tick off at least one and you’ll inevitably wind up creating a stir that we can’t help but get excited about.  It’s important to note though, that when we talk about “buzzy” brands it doesn’t mean names that are necessarily new, or the high-end designers with the financial backing to afford a big marketing campaign. O...

So Long Jeans—I’m Now Wearing These Casual Trousers Instead

Part sportswear and part utility with a healthy dash of All Saints energy (the girl group, not the brand), this laidback style is one of the more surprising pieces to have reappeared in my Instagram feed lately, but as with any trend that champions comfort first, I’m here for it. With styles ranging from classic khaki to tonal tan, a wealth of cargo trousers have appeared on the high street almost overnight, but the brand to truly give cargo trousers the luxe makeover they so desperately needed is none other than The Frankie Shop. As soon as the now sold-out Jenna Cargo Pants dropped a couple of months ago, they were considered an influencer must-have. And for those a little sceptical about the ubiquitous shade of milkshake pink, the brand also has nine styles of cargo trouser curren...

I’m a Stylist— Here Are 26 Expensive-Looking Classics I’d Recommend From Arket

A good wardrobe is nothing without a solid base of classic capsule pieces. You know the ones—the items you pull out and incorporate into your outfits most days. The simple yet far-from-boring staples you’d be lost without. It could be the perfect white T-shirt, a pair of jeans or your favourite blazer that goes with everything.  As a stylist, I’ve spent the best part of a decade searching for the perfect versions of these items to use in photo shoots or to recommend to all of my clients as well as to fill my own collection with. And surprisingly enough, the one place I always turn to isn’t the most expensive designer; it’s actually on the high street. In my opinion, Arket classics win every time, and I constantly find myself suggesting the brand when people as...

This Zara Leather Jacket Is Just Like Laura Harrier’s But Costs £3500 Less

If I’ve learned anything in this year, it’s to trust that whatever Laura Harrier wears will become a viral sensation, be it a leopard-print bikini or a Saint Laurent baseball cap. And while the end of the year is fast approaching, her reign as one of Hollywood’s best dressed celebrities appears to just be getting started, with her latest look being among her best outfits yet.  Earlier this week, the Mike star was seen leaving lunch at the hyper-exclusive San Vicente Bungalows in West Hollywood, where she wore the shearling-trimmed leather bomber jacket from Khaite that every fashion person—or at least, everyone I know—is doing everything in their power to get their hands on. With her covetable outerwear, Harrier added a sl...

Sienna Miller’s Bridesmaid Dress Is Going to Set the Trend for 2023

Of all the stylish weddings in 2022, it was of course no surprise to discover just how incredibly chic and beautiful the nuptials of fashion designer Savannah Miller and aristocrat James Whewell were last week. Located at the very romantic and bohemian Petersham Nurseries in Richmond (a well-loved fashion editor haunt), it was everything you want a Christmas wedding to be and captured in all its glory by the highly sought-after wedding photographer, Benjamin Wheeler.  You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online.

Paul McCarthy Released a New Santa with Butt Plug Sculpture

Looking for an expensive Christmas-inspired sculpture that packs a punch and is highly limited? Look no further. In collaboration with Avant Arte, American contemporary artist Paul McCarthy has released an evocative new sculpture entitled Santa with Butt Plug Bronze 11.4 inches. As the title implies, Father Christmas is cast in bronze and painted with a chromatic red finish holding a nearly foot-long butt plug. The artwork stems from an earlier 2001 public sculpture commissioned by the city of Rotterdam, where the artist kept the foam replica from the original to create this smaller model. No stranger to controversy, much of McCarthy’s oeuvre is built on humor and provocation as he creates sculptures that often conflate pop cultural symbols in sexually pervasive positions or undertones. Di...

30 H&M, Arket and & Other Stories Winter Buys That Are Actually Worth Your Money

I’m finally prepared to admit it now–I’m actually really enjoying winter. After being dragged kicking and screaming out of summer, and tolerating the “too warm, too cold” transitional period that was autumn, I’ve actually come around to wrapping up in cosy layers and heading out into the bracing cold.  Despite it being generally quite dark and a brief flirtation with snow, British winters tend to be quite consistent, and the key to mastering winter dressing is all in the preparation (I have a coat for rain, a couple of coats for icy winds and a totally impractical coat for dressier events). But assembling the perfect cold-weather wardrobe doesn’t have to cost the earth, and in fact the high street is one of the best places to stock up...

6 Winter Outfits That Are Guaranteed to Make You Look Rich

Here at Who What Wear, we love to hunt down those special, expensive-looking pieces that no one would guess are actually from the high street. And we’re pretty good at it, if we do say so ourselves. Our editors are highly skilled at finding these noteworthy gems, and spend plenty of time searching the new-in pages of some of our favourite brands to bring you the very best edit of said pieces.  When it comes to spotting a high-street piece that looks and feels premium, there are a few pointers we swear by. Yes, the fabric composition is important: Natural fibres like wool and cotton will always stand the test of time, look more polished and are better for the planet when they are responsibly sourced and processed. But taking care of your cl...
