The 30 Pieces That Will Define Winter 2025 Style
As much as I'm not eager about walking home from the subway at 6 p.m. in frigid temperatures and complete darkness, I am thrilled about all the cold-weather clothing, shoes, and accessories that come with the absence of sunlight and the anticipation of New York City slush. Winter is approaching, everyone, and it's time we embrace it, which means we should start deciding what to purchase for the upcoming season. Luckily, there are numerous essential pieces that are warm, cozy, and very fashionable, allowing you to look stylish regardless of what your frequently inaccurate weather app may indicate. For winter 2025, key items include Prada Fair Isle sweaters and $80 dark-wash jeans, with plenty more in between to complete your wardrobe. Consider furry stoles, coats approved by Jennifer Lawrence, and the new Uggs that everyone from Kaia Gerber to Bella Hadid has been wearing consistently. (I have them too, and I can confirm they are completely regret-proof.) And those are just the highlights. For the ultimate shopping guide for winter 2025, keep scrolling. Trust me, you're in for a delightful treat.
**Adidas x Wales Bonner**
*Karintha Satin Sneakers*
Whenever Grace Wales Bonner launches a new pair of Adidas sneakers, it creates quite a stir. Her collections for the sportswear brand typically sell out quickly, and this new satin style is no exception. Both the blue and black pairs are nearly sold out at Adidas, but sizes are still available at Moda Operandi. Hurry.
**Almada Label**
*Deja Doublé Coat*
Who wouldn't want to own Jennifer Lawrence's favorite coat for fall and winter? I'll wait. This is the Deja Doublé Coat, which the actress recently showcased around New York City, demonstrating it's perfect for East Coast winters.
**Prada**
*Wool and Cashmere Cardigan*
A Fair Isle sweater for winter? Groundbreaking. The fit and color scheme of this Prada cardigan are particularly trendy right now, and it will likely inspire other brands to embrace this cold-weather pattern as the season approaches.
**Gap**
*High Rise '90s Loose Jeans*
When Hailey Bieber, who could wear jeans from nearly any brand, starts repeatedly wearing her Gap jeans, you know they're exceptional. She's been opting for the low-rise variant of this $80 pair, but this new higher-rise style is poised to become the go-to for winter.
**MANGO**
*Patent Leather Flat Shoes*
If you've spent as much time as I have regretting not splurging on Chanel's sold-out patent-leather moccasins from last winter, you're in luck. A similar pair has just launched at Mango, ready to be your go-to for the holiday season. Just imagine wearing them with fun socks or tights paired with a miniskirt or dress at festive gatherings. I can almost hear the compliments.
**ZARA**
*100% Leather Long Gloves*
A genuine-leather glove is a winter necessity. They're not only warm but also elevate every outfit with a touch of elegance. Extra points if you find a burgundy pair that extends to the elbow and costs under $150. Oh, look, I just did.
This dress has already sold out once in navy blue—don't let this winter-white version follow suit before you grab it in your size. It's a worthwhile investment since it can be styled year-round, with tights and boots in winter and kitten-heel mules in spring.
**Alexandre de Paris**
*Hair Comb*
After The Row's recent show, everyone has been buzzing about the updos worn by the models, all adorned with French hair combs like this one from Alexandre de Paris. If you want to keep your hair up and out of the wind, this is how to do it—with the approval of Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen.
**The Row**
*Alger Geometric Shoulder Bag in Leather*
Speaking of The Row, their new Alger shoulder bag is quickly rivaling the Margaux. Kendall Jenner has been seen carrying hers for several weeks, and it was most recently spotted on Elsa Hosk. While it's currently sold out on the brand's site, don’t worry. We’ve found an available version.
**Helsa**
*The Schoolhouse Jacket in Suede*
Elsa Hosk paired her Alger bag with this viral green suede jacket from Helsa in an extraordinarily stylish way. Green jackets have been gradually taking over fashion, with designs by Burberry and Prada popping up on the streets of Paris and Milan runways.
**ZARA**
*Zw Collection Combination Skirt*
The double-layer skirt trend is transitioning into winter, but unlike its summer and fall counterparts, this time you can acquire it at an affordable price—$90 to be precise. Zara just released this chic black-and-white style that's simply too good to pass up.
