The results are in! And if you're in need of some shopping tips, you're in luck. Global fashion search index, Lyst, just announced it's first 'Hottest Products' list for 2023 and some of the pieces that made the cut, might just surprise you. Historically, the Lyst round-up's have usually been an exclusively luxury-led affair, but for this season, it seems the price point in somewhat lower.
Despite taking the Lyst 'Hottest Brands' top spot, Prada actually doesn't feature on the product list. Instead, it's accessible high-street brands like Uniqlo and Weekday's turn in the limelight with the viral Uniqlo shoulder bag entering the list as one of the cheapest products to ever be featured. With consumers seemingly looking to more affordable products - often the result of going viral on TikTok or Instagram - the list gives an interesting snapshot into how we consume fashion right now. And if you need anymore convincing of social media's selling power, just look to entry number 4. Remember those cartoonish red boots that broke the internet? Yes, people actually searched and bought them.
So, to stay on top of the trends, here's the full rundown of the hottest products to buy right now...
SHOP: The Top 10 Hottest Products Of 2023
1 of 101. Uniqlo, Round Mini Shoulder Bag
Taking top spot is Uniqlo's sell-out shoulder bag which, ironically, has the lowest price point. Coming in at under £15, this practical yet surprisngly-chic shoulder back hits the affordable sweet spot whilst nailing the minimal aesthetic. Expect another sell-out pretty soon.
2 of 102. Rick Owens Kriester, Oversize-Frame Sunglasses
In at number two, are the Rick Owens Kriester sunglasses, which expertly tow the line between ski goggles and shades. You can thank the Rick Owen stans for this entry.
3 of 103. SKIMS, Sculpting Bodysuit With Snaps
Claiming spot number three, is the Skims Sculpt Bodysuit, yet another viral sensation from Kim Kardashian's body-wear range. Despite questions surrounding the popularity of the Kardashian's right now but one thing's for sure - they know how to sell.
4 of 104. MSCHF, Big Red Boot
Ah, the boots. Marking a sign of the times, the MSCHF big red boots come in at number four, thus proving the power of the internet. Still sold out online, we suspect these giant red boots may have had their 15-minutes of fame.
5 of 105. Diesel, High-Waisted Denim Skirt
Diesel is currently fashion catnip, and this maxi-skirt nails any fashion girls thirst for anything Diesel and the current obsession with denim skirts. Coming in at £250, this nails the sweet spot between high-end luxury and high-street pricing.
6 of 106. Bottega Veneta, Silver Drop Earrings
It can't be a Lyst top ten with a mention for Bottega Veneta, although, surprisingly, it's not a handbag that's made the cut. Bottega's drop earrings take spot number six, nailing stealth wealth in the chicest of ways.
7 of 107. Adidas Original, Gazelle 85 Leather-Trimmed Suede Sneakers
Taking over from the Adidas Samba, Adidas Gazelle's take sixth place on the list. Following the success of the Gucci x Adidas collaboration which was Gucci's take on the classic Adidas Samba, the style have been a fashion pack favourite.
8 of 108. Weekday, Astra Loose Baggy Jeans
One of the most surprising, yet very welcome, new entries takes on spot number seven. Weekday's Astro Loose baggy jeans come in at £50 and are naturally in high demand so run don't walk as these will sell-out (again) fast!
9 of 109. Alaïa, Le Coeur Red Bag
You might've seen it cropping up across the street style set over fashion month. The Alaïa Le Coeur bag remains a cult classic with its sturdy leather exterior and kitsch heat-shaped design. We simply j'adore.
10 of 1010. MM6 Maison Margiela, Red Salomon Edition Cross Hike Sneakers
And finally, it's the MM6 Maison Margiela x Salomon Cross high sneakers. If they weren't a hit already, they certainly were after Rihanna took to the super bowl stage for her half-time show wearing none-other than the MM6 take on Solomon's scarlet sneakers.
So, there you have it. The who's who of shopping. Now get ready to fill your baskets before everything sells-out, again.
