The Most Stylish Women I Know Shop at Zara, COS, and Reformation—9 Luxe-Looking Items on Their Fall Wish Lists
There are a few high-street and contemporary brands that can, honestly, pull off remarkable feats. By "remarkable feats," I mean creating items that boast all the elegance and high-end details of designer pieces, without the hefty four-figure price tag. The three brands I consistently rely on? Zara, COS, and Reformation. Zara excels in refined basics, like cardigans featuring frog fastenings, cinched-waist shirts, and barrel-leg jeans that appear much more expensive. COS has mastered the understated elegance reminiscent of The Row, offering sculptural accessories, soft cashmere, and impeccably tailored pieces. Then there's Reformation, home to iconic items like the coveted Jadey cashmere jumper and Clara cardigan, alongside fluid satin pants and perfectly tailored straight-leg denim. These three brands together make curating a luxurious-looking autumn wardrobe exceptionally simple. Continue scrolling to shop the must-know autumn essentials from Zara, COS, and Reformation.
