Zara's Minimalist Capsule Collection Shows Basics Don't Have to Be Boring
When we heard that Zara was dropping a minimalist capsule collection, we thought all our Christmases had come at once. Usually known for its hot-off-the-press styles, this new edit is a bit of a diversion for the high-street store, who is clearly embracing the current trend for clean lines and pared-back design. The results? They're just as good as you'd expect.
Comprised of stylish co-ords, sculptural shoes, slim-fit knit dresses and go-with-everything tops, all in 50 shades of beige, taupe and cream, this collection is perfectly set up for summer. Recalling the iconic styles of the '90s, we've particularly fallen for the ribbed knitted pieces, including dresses and tank tops, which instantly make any outfit look ten times more luxe.
If you're heading off on holiday soon or simply making a mental note of everything you want for the warmer months, make sure to check out Zara this week. To save you time, we've sifted through the site and selected the 15 pieces that have caught our eye. You can thank us later. Scroll down to see and shop our favourite pieces from Zara's minimalist capsule collection.
