I overheard a colleague jokingly refer to Zara and Nordstrom as Zordy, in regards to the duo's popularity among fashion people, and it immediately dawned on me that I have a Zordy closet. It's no surprise, really, as the two retailers are my first stops when shopping, thanks to their impeccable curation of classic and trendy pieces every season. I know I am not alone in this—the shopping-related texts in my group chat with other fashion friends is proof.
For fall 2025, I rounded up the Zara and Nordstrom standouts that I have my eye on at the moment. Think chic outerwear, cashmere sweaters, cool jeans, brown dresses, effortless boots, luxe suede pieces, and more.
