In my time as a fashion editor, I’ve come to appreciate different high-street brands for their unique strengths. I’ll always be drawn to Uniqlo for its perfect basics, I dip into COS if I’m in need of one or two new knitwear pieces and I’ll turn to Mango if my accessories arsenal requires a refresh. For outerwear, however, I haven’t found any other brand that comes through as reliably as my longtime favourite, ARKET.
Season after season, this high-street hero continues to blend fresh, trending elements with grounded and timeless designs, creating collections that stand up over the years. From its quilted jackets and leather styles that see me through the spring and autumn months, to the sweeping coats in cosy wool and insulating down, I consistently come back to ARKET when I’m in need of a new coat or jacket.
