5 Fall Trends to Shop From NET-A-PORTER

The Collection is a series that highlights the latest collections from our favorite luxury brands, be it a seasonal capsule, an exclusive collab, or anything in between. We’ll include everything you need to know about each new launch and a curated list of our favorite pieces.

For me, the beginning of fall is almost as monumental as the start of a new year. It’s like I’m hitting the refresh button on my life. As soon as there is an inkling of a chill in the air, I’m clearing out my wardrobe. Goodbye, crochet, linens, and my trusty black sandals, and hello, suedes, knits, and boots. Like every fashion editor, I’ve been patiently (or not so patiently) waiting to start wearing the trends that debuted on the runways back in spring. And the first place I’m heading to scoop them all up? None other than NET-A-PORTER.

If this surprises you, you don’t know me well enough yet. NET-A-PORTER has this impeccable way of curating a selection that makes you feel like you’re shopping the closet of every stylish woman in the world. The retailer has made it nearly impossible for me to choose just a few key trends, but I’ll do my best to narrow it down. Let’s get into the pieces I’m absolutely swooning over this season.

Au revoir, neutrals. Fall is all about rich, saturated tones that instantly elevate your entire wardrobe. Reds, maroons, yellows—the options are endless. These colors bring warmth and boldness without being too flashy. My heart currently belongs to an oversize cherry blazer I spotted on NET-A-PORTER. It’s the type of piece you throw on over anything, and suddenly you’re the most talked-about person in the room.

If you were to peek into our Who What Wear Slack channels, you would see more suede than you could ever imagine. Some would say we have a problem. This is the fabric of the moment, and not just because it’s warm—it’s timeless. Barn jackets, kitten heels, knee-high boots, hobo bags—you name it, it comes in suede this season. There’s something about the texture that just screams luxury. It transforms any outfit into something next-level without even trying.

Fall and knits go together like a pumpkin spice latte and a cool autumn day. You can’t have one without the other. This season’s knits are anything but basic. We’re talking chunky, oversize sweaters that feel like a warm hug as well as sleek, fitted pieces. Personally, I’ve fallen for a light-pink cable-knit sweater by ACNE Studios that’s practically begging to be worn on repeat. Pair it with denim and boots for a casual day, or throw it over a silk slip dress for a modern take on layering. Either way, knits are the wardrobe staple I never want to take off.

While I’m all about light and airy summer dresses, when it comes to fall, dresses hit a bit different. Not only are we pulling out cozy dresses to pair with our boots, but we’re grabbing shimmery, slinky, and sultry options, too. I’m particularly into NET-A-PORTER’s collection of midi dresses right now. Add a pair of boots, some statement jewelry, and *chef’s kiss.* Effortless and easy.

I love (and I mean love) basics. A white tee? Yeah, I have 10 versions. But sometimes I need to switch it up. This season, it’s all about putting a little oomph into silhouettes. Whether it’s a jacket with sharp, structured shoulders or a skirt with an unexpected fabric, you can’t go wrong adding something extra.
