To steal the popular adage from Miranda Priestly, chain detailing doesn’t seem like the most groundbreaking concept when it comes to accessory trends. After all, chains have been used as functional straps on handbags for several decades. But when it comes to the chain embellishments of 2020, we have to say, they are definitely something to write home about. This season, the humble chain detail has been given an upgrade, and yes we mean that quite literally. Supersized and placed on shoes, jewellery and clothing, chains have gone from simply being a practical addition on an accessory to becoming a statement-making detail in and of themselves.  From JW Anderson to Bottega Veneta, oversize chains appeared across the runway for A/W 2020—placed atop loafers, ...

Zara needs absolutely no introduction that’s for sure. From Instagram accounts honoring a trending Zara coat or spotty dress to being the Duchess of Cambridge‘s go-to for classic staples, Zara can do no wrong. But did you know that the high-street mega brand also owns a load of other different, but just as great, high-street labels? It might have passed you by as each of the sister brands has its own identity—distinctly different from the original, so you might not even realise they’re part of the same group. There’s Massimo Dutti, which is a more grown-up sort of label, offering chic separates such as cashmere cardigans and leather shirts. Uterqüe is the fashion-forward brand, which is the place to find brightly-coloured shirts and bol...

To put it simply it’s all about It bags, It bags and more It bags. Plus the occasional Chanel earring thrown in for good measure. Everyone I spoke to from Lyst to sellers over at Depop told me that people were after vintage bags from the major designers.  Depop seller, basementsix revealed they’d sold three vintage nova check Burberry bags in the last two weeks. But vintage nylon Prada shoulder bags were still proving popular. This was a similar theme elsewhere with Lyst also finding that searches were spiking for the classic Prada ’90s tote, as did Vestiaire Collective.  Another extremely popular bag with increasing demand is Louis Vuitton’s pochette monogram bag, seeing purchases across Vestiaire Collective, Open for Vintage, and Depo...

Here at Who What Wear, we fancy ourselves as somewhat experts when it comes to spotting microtrends. The kind of looks that are distinguished by something as small as the texture of a fabric or the placement of a button. In the past, we’ve waxed poetic on microtrends ranging from countryside prints to statement embroidered cardigans, though this winter there seems to be a new, subtler trend on the block. From designer to high-street, sweetheart neckline knits are gaining quite the fashionable fanbase right now with influencers across the globe embracing the flattering silhouette. It’s a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it kind of detail but manages to instantly elevate a winter knit, bringing a modern, contemporary element to the item.  You Deserve to Make Money ...

In times past, putting together a ‘sustainable gift guide’ was a bit of a slog. It was honestly pretty difficult to find items that were as chic as they were ethical. And don’t even try to factor in affordability in that too—anything that was worth having always meant parting with a lot of cash. Good news, then, as all the below 32 items I’ve found are ideal for the fashion-lover and they just so happen to be sustainable as well. Happily, most of the big online retailers have sustainable sections, making it much easier to find the best stuff around. But, if you’re looking for smaller UK-based brands, I’ve got those in there too. You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online. So we reimagined what a dating should be.

It wasn’t until I bought a Nanushka jumper dress last year that I realised how incredibly chic they were. I don’t know what was putting me off. Maybe I was just buying ones that were too thin or didn’t fit my body type. I was hesitant about trying what in my mind was a formfitting garment. But lo and behold, my mind has changed. Especially when I realised that jumper dresses are the chic winter dress that French women love to wear.  You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online.

If there’s one word that summarised 2019’s style aesthetic, it would have to be beige. Instagram went wild for the shade, with feeds filling up with earthy-hued snapshots. Meanwhile at fashion week, the pavements were strewn with stripped-back ensembles in 50 shades of, you guessed it, beige. Now, I’m going to sound very “fashion” right now, but 2020 has seen a shift in the colour-trend stakes, and we’re seeing a new hue come to the fore. This autumn, it’s all about pale beige. (To quote The Devil Wears Prada, “It’s a tough call. They’re so different.”) The trick is to apply the same principles as you did to last year’s deeper shades of beige. Head-to-toe is the way to go.

If there’s one brand that has been inescapable over the past few years it’s been Gucci. Since 2015, under the creative direction of Alessandro Michele, the brand has become one of the hottest fashion houses around. Thanks to Alessandro’s exciting and fresh vision countless other designers and high street brands have followed the “edgy grandma from the ’70s” trend. But the real crux of the fashion house’s success lies in its accessibility. While some opt to wear the brand sunglasses-to-platforms, others can easily dip their toe in with a bag or a pair of shoes. But one of the easiest ways to get the Gucci look? Wear one of the now-iconic double G belts. You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Onlin...

This December will be like no other we’ve experienced, that’s for sure. With our days and regular activities dictated by ever-changing rules and regulations—where you can go and with whom, for how long you can stay and what you’re actually allowed to do during that time—it’s easy to write fashion off as too frivolous to mention. However, if the past year has taught us anything it’s that the little things do make a difference, and our growing list of small-but-mighty actions can include reveling in getting dressed. This doesn’t mean you have to own something new and get that fast fix in order to feel buoyant—I promise that even the most cursory and purposeful dive into one’s own wardrobe can hit a creative not...

And if you want more pointers, we have an insider who gave us some valuable tips on how to shop the Zara sale in the UK so expertly that you’ll be guaranteed to get there first (and find the pieces you’ve been eyeing up all season).  Our intel is that you should go for the things that’ll be the most popular first. So opt for the higher-priced goods that will sell out quickly (e.g., cashmere, handbags, shoes and coats). “Other pieces like shirts are likely to still be around for the second markdown,” recommends our insider. Also remember to research trends before buying for the upcoming season so you can see what will last. “Customers will always ask, ‘Will you be getting more stuff like this?’ Honestly, the staff will have no i...
