H&M's Premium Selection. NET-A-PORTER's wardrobe essentials. Take a look and it's easy to find plenty of minimalist edits on the market at the moment. Whether it's a high-street take on runway or designer collections that focus on stripped-back simplicity, luxe minimalism is no longer a "trend", it's a way of life. And unlike the much discussed "quiet luxury" aesthetic, these pieces often fly deliberately under the radar. After all, the idea is a capsule edit of mix and match pieces so discreet that they become an intrinsic part of your everyday uniform. Fans of The Row, Toteme, and Phoebe Philo's Céline will know this look all too well—functional, yet fashionable clothes are the fashion insiders calling card, and now it's made its way onto the high street too, you can shop the look without having to empty your bank account. Every effortless dresser's dream.
So, how exactly does one tap into the look? It's all about premium quality fabrics, considered cuts, and a timeless colour palette that will still look as good in ten years time as it does now. So, if your wardrobe already comprises boxy blazers, tailored trousers, and sleek accessories, or you're just aiming to refresh your look for summer 2025, keep scrolling to see the pieces that I'm confident have the look down to a perfect white tee, and they're all from industry giants Massimo Dutti, MyTheresa and COS.
New in Massimo Dutti:
The perfect transitional blazer.
Such a chic addition to your summer looks.
Deisgner-coded, for a fraction of the price.

These are destined to be a street style favourite.
Simply stunning.
Sexy but still polished.
