It's Officially 2024 at NET-A-PORTER—5 Next-Year Trends I'm Already Shopping
Sponsor Content Created With NET-A-PORTER
In just a matter of days, we'll be ringing in 2024 with a fresh 365 days ahead of unknown adventures. It's time to ready ourselves—and our wardrobes—for the coming year. With a fair few grey, chilly days under our belts, we've had plenty of time to consider the missing elements of our winter capsule wardrobes, and NET-A-PORTER's new-in section offers the chance to fill the gaps with styles featuring a distinctly 2024 edge.
Whilst we're about to explore some of the new year's trends, it's important to note that nothing is fleeting about them; the backbone of 2024's key trends are classics with a modern edge. From mid-heel shoes that offer a little more stability than stilettos to handbags in practical sizes that will ensure you won't end up pushing overspill items into your pockets, the overarching theme for 2024 is easy wearability.
In clothing, fashion maintains its emphasis on hardworking essentials that will see you through the year and into the next. With elegant cuts and exquisite tailoring, a little investment now means your 2024 heroes will continue to bolster your wardrobe throughout the coming months and well beyond. Whilst the neutral-hued revolution of hushed luxury continues to reign, the new year opens the door to bolder shades in primary colours and deep tones to inject freshness into our wardrobes. Finally, denim is a key feature in so many of our outfit builds and 2024 continues to focus on its importance. Long lengths and oversized fits take centre stage; from jeans to skirts and jackets to shirts, denim remains a key style for the new year.
Ready to explore the five 2024 fashion trends that you can shop and wear right now? Over to NET-A-PORTER.
1. Luxe Foundations
This year has been defined by a return to classic pieces, and 2024 is set to follow. After a busy month of festivities, a little ease is offered by reliable styles that always look put-together and stand the test of time, proving just how worthwhile it can be to invest a little more in high-quality wardrobe foundations.
Shop Luxe Foundations:
Forever stripes will always tie into your wardrobe.
An easy-to-style ribbed dress is always a good idea.
2. Bold Shades
Looking back, the latter half of this year has already been punctuated by colourful shades, with early October defined by buttery yellow, whilst red took hold closer to the festivities. For the new year, these punctuated hues continue to rejuvenate our favourite neutrals and will bolster classic looks throughout the months to come.
Shop Bold Shades:
I'm so excited to add this pop of red into my outfit builds.
This shade of green works so seamlessly with neutrals and denim alike.
This vibrant button-down dress is sure to fly. Extra points for the collar.
3. Classic Bags
For the new year, accessories are following on from clothing: classics are winning. By this, I mean that practicality is taking the lead, though naturally, in a chic manner. When it comes to handbags, I'm entering 2024 with a suitable size for all my worldly possessions in a timeless shade that will complement any outfit it accompanies.
Shop Classic Bags:
This also comes with a longer strap for various ways to wear.
A spacious tote you'll keep with you through every season.
4. Long Denim
Denim is arguably the hardest-working fabric in our wardrobes, and for the new year, I'm looking to embrace it in all its forms. From shirts to jackets and jeans to skirts, all denim iterations are welcome in 2024, with a special mention of longer, roomier styles (oversized fits and maxi lengths alike).
Shop Long Denim:
Every wardrobe deserves a great pair of black jeans.
5. Mid-Heels
In terms of wearability for 2024, footwear got the memo. Whilst sky-high heels have their place and flats have come a long way, reliable mid-heels are racing ahead as the key shoe of the season. Better still, they come in all styles, from boots to pumps and plenty more.
Shop Mid-Heel Shoes:
The suede finish will add depth to an outfit by bringing a contrasting texture.
Instant easy outfit: knee-high boots with a low heel and a throw-on knitted dress.
From the colour to the square toe, these are a real find.
