19 New COS Finds to Shop, Straight from the NYFW Runway

On a warm Sunday afternoon during New York Fashion Week, in an austere, industrial space in Brooklyn’s Greenpoint neighborhood, Cos debuted its latest Autumn/Winter collection. Comprised of the label’s signature neutral hues like navy blue, slate gray, and black, it proved that sticking to the basics sometimes is best. Prepare to see it everywhere (once the weather cools down).

I, for one, will be starting by stocking up on Cos‘s new array of sweaters. The brand has become known for its knitwear collection in recent years, and this new collection was chock-full of it. Models styled trendy polo picks in shades of preppy light gray and elongated maroon options cinched at the waist by dainty black leather belts.

However, I was most impressed by the sheer variety of different jacket styles included. Classic wool iterations were styled with casual-cool scarves or collars high enough to hide behind on an early morning coffee run. Other, edgier finds were made from sturdy-looking leather and shiny satin.

Even the most dramatic pieces—in this case, a blue-gray faux fur coat with an exaggerated hip-length silhouette and another massive beige fringed number that dropped nearly to the floor—felt off-duty cool. The reason? It was styled with a pair of coordinating leggings and glove boots, in the case of the former, and tan suede sneakers with the latter.

When there was a break from the monochrome, it still felt well within the minimalist capsule wardrobe that Cos had created. One look from early on the show combined a skin-tight turtleneck and a wrap skirt in two different plaid patterns. Regardless, both were crafted in the same maroon and tan color palette.
