The Very Best Pieces From The New Collections Currently Landing On The High Street

Wave goodbye to the sales rails, spring is officially in. The high street’s new-In sections are brimming with pastel hues and optimistic prints, ready to upgrade your existing wardrobes with a new season twist.

There’s no need to schlep around the shops, though – we’ve hunted the high street for the best new pieces worthy of wardrobe bragging rights.

Arket

Contemporary takes on tailoring, sugary sorbet shades and excellent knits make up the backbone of this new haul. With pretty, oversized dresses and lilac Bermuda shorts, it’s the place to go for ultra-wearable examples of this season’s biggest trends.

Simply Be

From polka dot wrap dresses to cropped, kick-flare jeans and outfit-saving accessories, Simply Be is the place to go for wear-everywhere pieces that will work day after day.

Zara

Oh Zara, how do we love thee? Let us count the ways: colour block thick soled sandals, silk twist-front midi dresses, oversized floral sun hats, leather joggers and frill detail, puff sleeve blouses, to name but a few. Whatever Zara makes, we want. And spring/summer is shaping up to be particularly desirable.

Marks & Spencer

In the past month, there has been an increase in online searches for the pink suit. And with versions like this, it’s not hard to see why. Execute a flawless colour clash by teaming it with M&S’ bold green polo neck, or mix feminine florals with cross-body bags in spring’s It shade of lilac.

H&M

For on-trend, ‘70s-inspired pieces that scream chic, look to zebra print dresses mixed with brown suede accessories. Cotton, puff-sleeve shirts and leather boots make for a triumphant clash of texture that will lend everyday outfits with a sense of luxury.

Kurt Geiger

Proving you don’t have to just look to high-end designers for footwear with a point of difference, KG’s latest creations include croc-effect, strappy mules in mint green, as well as buckle detail sandals you’ll want to wear every day come sunny season.

COS

Unexpected colours are splashed across luxe interpretations of wardrobe basics, which is always what Cos does best. From culottes and boxy shirts to square toe boots and soft, fabric bags, there’s nothing boring about this minimalism.

Dune

Insta-worthy accessories have just become more affordable thanks to Dune’s woven, slouchy bags, matching mules and square toed sandals. You’ll be wearing these timeless pieces for seasons to come.

Very.co.uk

In the hands of Very, a zip-front denim jumpsuit becomes a very covetable thing indeed. Plus, look out for the brand’s contribution to hair accessories, which remain one of fashion’s biggest preoccupations of the moment. Wear all three at once for extra kudos.
