Although our social calendars tend to slow down come winter, that doesn’t mean your sense of style needs to go into hibernation mode this season, too. Quite the contrary; these colder months are ideal for breaking out — and showing off — your favorite ’fits. From cozy knits for home to chic performance apparel for play to classic resort wear for travel, here are 8 fashion and accessories brands we’re loving right now.
Dinner Service NY
Dinner Service NY (DSNY for short) is dedicated to prioritizing the health of people and the planet. As such, its statement-making, story-driven tees, sweaters and jackets — created in collaboration with culture makers like country crooner Orville Peck and renowned rapper Kota the Friend — are made exclusively using upcycled, plant-based fibers. Being a conscious consumer is cooler than ever.
Hermoza
Winter travel season is upon us, which means it’s time to break out the bathing suits. If you dread swimsuit shopping like many people do, Hermoza is your new best friend. The line’s luxe performance fabrics, slimming silhouettes and quality craftsmanship are designed to make women feel and look beautiful (after all, the company’s name is a take on that very word in Spanish). In addition to elegant one- and two-piece suits, the brand also offers cover-ups, dresses, jumpsuits and more.
A. PUTNAM
Polished pieces that can also perform — that was Ali Putnam’s inspiration when she launched her eponymous luxury sport-to-resort line last year. It’s safe to say she has totally nailed that, with pitch-perfect pieces like herringbone skorts, classic button-ups and knit cardigans that both work and play hard. The apparel’s golf roots are evident in the best way possible, exuding a subtle sporty sophistication.
Mave & Chez
Let’s be real: The work-from-home lifestyle makes it easy to want to stay in sweats all day, but there’s something alluring about having super sumptuous house clothes. Women-owned brand Mave & Chez to the rescue with slippers that are as fashionable as they are functional thanks to their science-backed ergonomic designs (which are sustainably manufactured to boot). They’re so chic yet comfy you’ll likely be tempted to wear them outside the house, too.
Vuori
When it comes to athleisure, summer looks tend to get all the glory, but there’s a lot to love with winter wear, too. Don’t believe us? Just check out Vuori’s California cool performance apparel that’s primed for cold-weather pursuits. In stark contrast to all the fast fashion out there, the values-based company is firmly committed to healthy work environments and strict environmental practices.
The Daily Dress
True to the brand’s name, you’ll want to wear this dress daily. Founder Alexa Alspaugh created the line for busy women like herself, who are often stretched for time yet don’t want to compromise on style or comfort. Featuring a built-in bra and pockets (yay!), and available in a variety of colors, this is bound to become your go-to uniform for both the every day and special occasions.
Hat Attack
Those warm-weather destinations calling your name call for sun-ready accessories, like perfectly packable hats that easily fit into your carry-on or beach bag. Velour fedoras, straw sun hats and raffia bucket hats all bounce back with panache post-travel. Hat Attack also offers scarves, sarongs and bags (including hat-carrying ones) — totally outfitting you for your next globetrotting adventure.
Kerisma
Knitwear is back in a big way, with consciously crafted brands like Kerisma leading the charge. Founded by father/daughter duo Phil and Lihui Ke in 2010, the company not only uses earth-friendly yarns for its designs — from cozy sweaters to maxi dresses to full-in ’fits — but also donates 2% of profits to arts and culture organizations to help nurture the next generation of creatives. Looking good while doing good is an undoubtedly stylish combination.
