If you spent a day studying our Slack messages, reading our story pitches, or as a fly on the wall in one of our (virtual) meetings, you'd quickly realise that we Who What Wear editors talk about Zara a lot. Given that you're taking the time to read this, perhaps you do too. And at the start of each season, our Zara discussions really ramp up as the new arrivals start coming in hot.
It's already September, and you know what that means: Zara's assortment of coats, boots, and sweaters to cosy up in are multiplying on a daily basis. And since we consider ourselves to be Zara experts, we thought you might be interested to hear which pieces we have our eyes on for autumn. It wasn't easy, but we narrowed it down to items that are sure to bring your autumn 2021 wardrobe to the next level. You know what to do.
Shop Nicole's picks:
"My co-worker Lauren and I are freaking out over this blazer. It's just the perfect cut, colour, and fit."
"This will look perfect styled with my aforementioned dream blazer and a pair of black suede boots this season."
"Three words: already bought it."
Shop Bobby's picks:
"This denim cut gets an A+ in my book."
"This tailored blazer is perfection."
"A loose white button-down shirt is a modern staple."
Shop Yusra's picks:
"These pants look extremely comfortable. Plus, the neutral shade is bound to go with any autumn look."
"Hello, clog season! This pair is definitely a sleeker version of the cottagecore trend you'll be seeing plenty of this season."
"I'm always down for some ruching."
"This dress is just simply breathtaking. If you have an autumn wedding coming up, this is perfect."
Shop Jasmine's picks:
"I love a good chocolate moment, especially when it comes in the form of a trench coat."
"This is the type of top you'd never guess was from Zara because it looks that expensive."
"BRB, going to be dreaming of these knee-high boots for the rest of the day."
"Leather trousers are a must-have for autumn in my book, and this beautiful pair is begging to be bought."
"This is the type of black dress you end up wearing all autumn."
Shop Kristen's picks:
"All I have to say about this cardigan is YES."
"Modern cowboy boots are a key buy for autumn. Just ask TikTok."
"The going-out dress I simply need in my wardrobe."
"A waistcoat feels especially cool in this pretty scarlet shade."
Shop Anna's picks:
"There's one pair of Zara jeans that everyone buys each season. I think these will be them for autumn."
"These boots are timeless but somehow also very right now."
"I said OMG to myself when I saw this."
Shop Erin's picks:
"I love faux-leather pieces for autumn, and this blazer is such a great version of the trend. It definitely looks expensive and feels much cooler than a corporate-y plaid blazer."
"I'm always excited about fun new sweaters. This one is a bit kitschy but still super cute. I feel like it brings a bit of summer into the new season and is way more interesting than a basic camel sweater."
"Sweater-vests will be everywhere. This oversized version is great for layering or wearing alone—the options are endless."
"A slim-fitting turtleneck is such a great basic to invest in. It will layer perfectly under any jacket, blazer, or cardigan you own."
