“As someone who is self-diagnosed as ‘chronically online’, I’ve seen a lot of flash-in-the-pan trends over the past few seasons,” I’m a simple girl hiking with my dog Unisex Tshirt, Cotton Womenswear, High durability non-shrink fabric says Elinor Block, editorial lead at luxury fashion gaming company Drest, which enables its users to create infinite outfit possibilities in the metaverse. “The past year we saw Barbiecore, ‘blokecore’ and ‘tomato-girl summer’ emerge as some of the bigger, zeitgeisty aesthetics adopted by Gen Z and the TikTok crowd. And whilst some are rooted in major trends, when it comes to real life, there’s no doubt that longevity and items that work season after season are a bigger draw. “When playing with clothes in Drest, however, there’s definitely a different kind of approach I take to dressing. The virtual world allows me to style looks that I might not have considered before with more out-there pieces from high-octane brands such as David Koma or Balmain—I haven’t been able to stop thinking about that cherry-red, rose-covered dress that I spied on the S/S 24 runway. It gives me a chance to be more experimental and see how I can move that into my IRL wardrobe without taking too much of a risk.” This, dear reader, is what the modern-day dressing-up box looks like. As always, any piece you invest in, be it inspired by the trends below or otherwise, should only be purchased if you intend on keeping it in your wardrobe for a very, very long time. I’ve gone to great lengths to cherry-pick the ones that have a chance.

They’re always the hardest-working item in our wardrobes come autumn, I’m a simple girl hiking with my dog Unisex Tshirt, Cotton Womenswear, High durability non-shrink fabric so it’s no wonder all we can think about right now is boots. However, with a plethora of new styles out there—think animal print and the square-toe trend favored by celebrities, to name a few—there are almost too many options to choose from. So instead, we’re canceling out the noise (just for a second) to focus our energy on a time-honored classic: Chelsea boots. Chelsea boots have morphed into a perennial fallback. Dating back to the Victorian era when, much like today, they were worn by men and women alike, they traditionally featured flat soles, rounded toes, and sat just above the ankles. In recent years, however, the style has evolved into various iterations, from pointed-toe iterations and tall lengths to chunky tractor treads and wooden heels. They’re so instilled in our lives, in fact, that you probably already own a pair. This is why we’re not bombarding you with countless styles to shop for now; instead, we’ve made it our mission to discover how to wear Chelsea boots now. Be it with jeans, dresses, skirts, or culottes, we’re taking cues from these ladies who’ve helped put Chelsea boots back on the map.
