COS Has Just Launched a See Now, Buy Now Collection: Here Are 6 Fall Trends We're Snapping Up First

      Fashion month is in full swing, and as the spring/summer 2026 season concludes this week in New York City, the general sentiment is that the collections have offered a visual feast. The only downside? We’ll have to wait several months before we can purchase any of the items. However, that wasn't the case at the COS runway show yesterday, where the brand unveiled its F/W 25 collection—available for immediate shopping. Hosted at the Greenpoint Terminal Warehouse in Brooklyn, the show underscored COS's dedication to timelessness, craftsmanship, and quality. The collection presented a sophisticated yet strong aesthetic, balancing structural elements with fluidity. For example, long-sleeve tops adorned with scarf details were layered under tailored funnel-neck pullovers. Cinched-waist jackets and sculpted dresses accentuated the female silhouette's curves, while flat footwear—including leather loafers, derby shoes, sock ankle boots, and suede sneakers—combined comfort with style.

      If you’re beginning your fall and winter shopping now or seeking pieces to enhance your cold-weather wardrobe, COS's wearable runway collection is a fantastic source for those elevated essentials. Continue reading, as we’ve compiled the leading trends and top finds from COS's new collection. Don't forget to keep checking COS's website, as more runway pieces will roll out throughout the season.

      Like many fashion enthusiasts at the moment, we've been looking for ways to make our outfits appear more refined and sophisticated. Recently, we've found that funnel-neck tops are one of the easiest ways to achieve this, and COS agrees. Featured in its runway collection, leather tops and wool capes were redesigned with high necklines extending straight up the neck, visually elongating it and creating an effortless, rich aesthetic. We also noticed short-sleeve silk blouses possessing more relaxed high necks that retained the funnel-neck shape but included a draped front that folded over, enhancing the elegant appearance.

      At Who What Wear, we’ve identified plaid as a significant print trend for fall 2025, supported by designers such as Proenza Schouler, Miu Miu, and Kallmeyer. COS has embraced this pattern with its F/W 25 runway collection. The show showcased striking head-to-toe plaid ensembles—tops matched with tailored pants and skirts, stylish plaid turtlenecks layered beneath oversized leather jackets, and slouchy plaid clutches carried by the models. This modern interpretation of plaid moves away from early 2000s styles, focusing instead on clean lines in muted tones that feel fresh and refined.

      While leather belts have a simple design, unique styling can elevate them significantly. At COS's runway show, the brand presented a captivating collection featuring sleek leather and croc-effect slim belts cinching the waists of flowing maxi dresses, leather jackets, and long blouses. There’s a good chance you already own a beautiful leather belt, so the next time you reach for it, consider stepping outside the norm. Instead of threading it through the loops of your favorite jeans or trousers, take a cue from the COS runway and try wrapping it around a dress, jacket, or simple top.

      The pencil skirt has long represented professional style, so it makes sense that a few were included in this collection, which showcases refined yet strong looks. The first two ensembles featured black tailored pencil skirts crafted from relaxed fabric allowing for movement with each model's step. They were cut just above mid-shin to highlight the brand's new sock ankle boots, which insiders are eager to acquire. The collection also included a leather pencil skirt and a gray crinkled-effect dress, both paired with coordinating tops, alongside a wool checkered-print piece.

      We’re not suggesting you should throw out your LBD, as it still holds a place in fall fashion, especially teamed with sheer tights and classic black heels. However, we advocate reconsidering your black dress. This fall, COS makes a case for long black dresses featuring simple silhouettes but intricate sculptural details. For instance, one of the dresses in the collection, made
