If you thought Madewell’s new arrivals were already a denim and suede dreamscape, you’ll fall even more in love with the brand’s newly-launched collaboration with Alexa Chung. Fourteen years after the pair first collaborated, Madewell and Alexa Chung have teamed up again, on a two-part collection that’s perfect for fall dressing. Launching today, the first drop of the capsule collection features wardrobe must-haves in timeless silhouettes and textiles like denim and suede, which we’ll be styling all fall long.
The 14-piece collection features jeans, skirts, button-down tops, outerwear, and even a pair of fall-appropriate overalls that are versatile enough to be mixed and matched with each other. Build a double-denim Western-inspired outfit or pair suede and denim pieces together for a ‘70s fit. From a denim maxi skirt and high-rise bootcut jeans — which Chung has described as “dream jeans” — to a matching suede skirt set and overcoat, each limited-edition piece aligns with the It Girl's personal style and love for vintage finds.
This collaboration is bound to make waves and sell out quickly, so click through to shop the full collection, which Chung also modeled in the campaign. And check back here because we’ll be updating you as soon as the second part of the collaboration drops.

Zara Fall Knitwear
Knitwear is always an fall win and Zara’s new arrivals are packed with all types of transitional styles. The collection includes lightweight cardigans with metallic hardware, short-sleeved knits for easy layering and neutral sweaters that are fit for a capsule wardrobe.
Zara Fall Matching Sets
If you’re prone to a bit of decision fatigue in the morning (or just tend to get lazy), Zara’s matching sets make for the best ready-made outfits. With a double-denim suit or a bright and silky two-piece that can be dressed up or down, you’ll find yourself saying “I have nothing to wear” a lot less often this season.
Zara Fall Dresses
There’s nothing more satisfying than throwing a leather or denim jacket over a chic dress and sneakers once the weather cools down. From leopard print midi dresses to office-appropriate LBDs, Zara’s fall dresses do not disappoint. You’ll find plenty of head-turners for fall weddings and parties, too.
Zara Fall Bottoms
Though the temperature will soon drop, the hemlines don’t have to follow. Case in point: Zara’s offering of flowy skirts and trendy long shorts. Fall is the perfect time to experiment with different styles of bottoms — the key is to layer appropriately.
Zara Fall Accessories
Zara always nails its accessory selection, from stylish shoes to statement handbags and jewellery that will satisfy all your magpie cravings. Nab a pair of mesh ballet flats or get in on this season’s bangles revival.
Zara Fall Outerwear
This collection proves that coats and jackets don’t have to be boring. If we must layer up, why not do it in style with a billowing, kimono-esque coat or cool satin blazer? Your fall ‘fits will thank you for these ultra-stylish finishing touches.

As much as we love playing dress up, slipping in and out of the latest, greatest fashion trends, it is always impossible to resist the appeal of a matching sweatsuit or lounge set. They’re cozy, they’re comfy, they’re cute, and — if made with quality and care — will last you a lifetime. Not to mention, all the purposes they can serve. Existing somewhere between sporty athleisure and a polished co-ord, sweatsuits are an easy shortcut if you are hoping to look casual yet put-together. Throw one on when you can't be bothered to style an outfit, are cramming a week’s worth of chores into one day, working remotely (and need a slightly more polished upgrade to pajamas), or are traveling; sweatpants are a savior for curling up on chilly planes. Even better, the pieces can also be worn individually — which promises endless mix-and-match possibilities when you do have time to deliberate on what to wear.
So, if you’re ready to finally replace those ratty, holey sweats gathering dust in your wardrobe, we’ve got you covered. (No judgment, we all have that one pair that’s seen us through school, college, and countless duvet day TV binges). Ahead, find 20 top-quality and stylish sweatsuit sets from retailers we love and trust. We’ve covered all seasons here — from lightweight short sweats and ultra-lightweight cotton lounge sets for summer, to thick, cozy sweat sets for fall and winter hibernation.

We’re long-time fans of Free People’s lounge and activewear offerings, right across their various brands (especially FP Movement and Free-est), and so, it’s often difficult to narrow down our selection. It was this lightweight knit set that won us over though. Available in an assortment of colors, from easy neutrals to bold and bright, it’s light enough for summer heatwaves and to wear to the beach, but also for curling up with a good book on a cooler day at home. Aka perfect for your vacation packing.
