H&M has just dropped the first instalment of its Autumn/Winter 2025 collection, and it's filled with elevated buys that are just too good to miss. The high-street favourite has tapped into glamorous nostalgia for this capsule, and there's no shortage of sumptuous faux fur, 90s checks and cosy mohair for every budget.
As a team that is always on the lookout for the very best pieces on the high street, H&M tends to be our first port of call. In my opinion, the brand can't be beaten when it comes to affordable and chic designs. With a great mix of timeless basics and on-trend pieces that will upgrade everyday outfits, H&M will always have something I'm looking for.
"The first chapter of our A/W season is really about balancing heavy and light. The mood is a playful eclecticism that nods to the iconic look and spirit of the 90s, when lacy, light pieces were effortlessly thrown together with denim, leather or sportswear," explains Eliana Masgalos, Design Director at H&M. Bringing structured pleats and billowing blouses together, edgy and delicate are simultaneously the key words of the season.
The only downside with H&M is that the pieces are so good, they tend to sell out instantly—so it's only natural that I keep my finger firmly on the pulse of what's new. I've scrolled through the latest arrivals and picked the 12 best pieces from H&M's new-in section that will have your trans-seasonal wardrobe covered.
Oh, and if you're a fan of editor-approved new-in picks, don't forget to check out our top selections from COS, Arket, Net-a-Porter, Zara and Massimo Dutti too.
