What Should I Buy in the COS Black Friday sale?

Few high-street brands are able to create pieces as elevated and affordable as COS. The retailer balances timeless items that will work hard in your wardrobe and fashion-forward styles that prove COS keeps up with the changing trends. Lucky for us, and our wardrobes, the sale consists of a curated selection of classic staples to invest in now and wear year after year. You’ve probably heard us talk about capsule wardrobe pieces that are the foundations required to build easy outfit combinations, and the COS sale has all the necessities.

On Black Friday, you might want to consider adding the brand's high-quality basics to your wardrobe, like the beloved Clean Cut T-Shirt. As we're well into winter, this is prime time to invest in a great coat to see you through the colder months, year after year. The brand is also known for tailoring, so crisp tailored trousers and blazers are always on our editor's wish lists. Plus, the brand's denim has quickly become a fashion person's favourite.

What is Black Friday?

Black Friday weekend is an annual sale shopping event that originated in the US. It marks the end of Thanksgiving and the start of the festive shopping season, resulting in the majority of well-known—and even, in recent years, smaller—brands and retailers heading into a period sale for a full four days.
