30 Chic Zara Items That Could Legitimately Pass as Designer

If there's one thing we know about Zara, it's that not every single piece is created equal. For example, a $6 T-shirt probably isn't going to be on the same level as a coat that's around $150. But both are very affordable for what they are. I tend to find that fall and winter are the best seasons for expensive-looking Zara items. The chunky knits, faux furs, and outerwear in autumnal colors are just more likely to look expensive than summery items, and some of the current fall and winter items look especially expensive. 

Below, I've rounded up some of the most expensive-looking pieces on Zara right now (and there was a lot to choose from). Even your keenest friends won't realize that they're not designer finds—but your bank account will. Scroll to shop the Zara sweaters, trousers, dresses, shoes, and more that look the most expensive out of the thousands of pieces currently in stock.

I happen to think that the color of this jacquard coat is very versatile.

This looks as good as some of the similar designer styles I've seen this season.

There are so many different ways to wear this chic cardigan.

The tweed-like texture of this minidress makes it look especially expensive.

The oversize fit of this coat is so cool.

Zara does striped knitwear so well.

Everything about this simple velvet blazer screams "expensive."

I don't entirely understand the included mask part, but the dress is great.

I'm convinced that everyone needs these.

It's giving me ACNE Studios vibes.

Riding boots don't get much better than this.

This would make an amazing gift (even if it's to yourself).

It's on the pricey side for Zara, but it's worth it.

The ultimate winter going-out top.

I'm tempted to buy this in bulk.
