It’s true: Absolutely every fashion editor on our team adores COS. The brand known for its elevated, clean, and minimalist designs is universally appealing to the fashion crowd—thanks to its monochromatic color palettes, quality fabrics, and timeless silhouettes that are designed to last beyond seasons. And for the most part, it’s reasonably(ish) priced. COS’s sweaters, in particular, are the most desirable and treasured item—almost all of us fashion editors own—or are trying to get our hands on—the viral Chunky Pure Cashmere Crew-Neck Sweater which consistently sells out. I’ve also always found its accessories and shoes to be top notch, and this season’s latest collection has us head-over-heels obsessed.
Since we are constantly talking and slacking about our COS finds, today I wanted to share some specific items we fashion editors are eyeing this season (that we predict will sell out by Thanksgiving—if they haven’t already!). From elegant turtlenecks to luxurious handbags, take a peek below at the COS items worth adding to your wardrobe this fall/winter.

Anna LaPlaca, Senior Fashion Editor
COS
Cashmere Funnel-Neck Sweater
“There’s a reason why the cashmere from COS is so viral—it’s that good. I ordered this sweater last year when I was doing a big review of cashmere knits and despite how much I’ve wore it since then, it still looks and feels brand-new. Perfectly structured and sumptuous, I’d rebuy it every year if I had to (and now that it also comes in grey, I just might).” — Anna LaPlaca
COS
Oversized Double-Breasted Wool Long Coat
“Despite several designer and vintage coats in my closet, nothing works harder than my COS outerwear and this season, the standout style I’m eyeing is this double-breasted wool coat with a funnel neck that flips down into a classic collar, giving you both a timeless and trend-forward option in one.”
COS
Chunky Pure Cashmere Crew-Neck Sweater
“I’ve had my eye on this sweater in navy for months, but it’s currently sold out—along with the pink and dark brown colors. The beige is still in stock though. It comes highly recommended by both our Associate Features Editor Ana Escalante and Who What Wear Market Director Bobby Schuessler.” — Audry Hiaoui
COS
Cashmere Funnel-Neck Sweater
“I’m also considering the Cashmere Funnel-Neck Sweater as an alternative, which comes in red, black, burgundy, and dark gray.”
COS
Brushed-Cashmere Crew-Neck Cardigan
“I want to echo both of the sweaters my colleague, Audry, mentioned. In addition, this brushed cashmere cardigan is absolutely divine. It looks like it would be five times the price.” — Bobby Schuessler
“COS bags have a cult following—many of the editors here at Who What Wear adore them. I have my eye on this suede stunner.”
Nicole Eshaghpour, Editor-at-Large
COS
Double-Faced Wool Scarf Short Jacket
“I saw this in person the other day and it’s even better than it seems. The check is the perfect, simple and timeless print for fall and winter and the added scarf is the cherry on top.” — Nicole Eshaghpour
COS
Double-Faced Wool Scarf Cape
“Sharing this because I’ve owned it for a couple years now and I need everyone to know that it’s one of the most versatile and most-used items in my wardrobe.”
Allyson Payer, Senior Fashion Editor
COS
Funnel-Neck Teddy Jacket
“I love that this is casual yet still polished. You could wear it for errands or to dinner and look appropriate for either occasion.”
COS
Fair Isle Brushed-Cashmere Scarf
“Cute winter accessories are my weakness, and little bandana scarves are a trend I keep coming across. They’ll keep you warm but are far less bulky than a regular long scarf.”
“I recently saw this gorgeous bag at a COS press preview (I also spotted it on a ton of chic guests during fashion week), and I can attest it’s even more luxuriously chic in person. If you need to tote around your laptop and other winter essentials—this is the perfect bag. I also really like the smaller version—it would make for a great gift this holiday season.” — Judith Jones
COS
Draped Wool-Blend Midi Skirt
“I love the gorgeous and unique draping of this midi skirt. Unfortunately, the plaid version I had been eyeing is now sold out, but I’ll definitely be buying it in this versatile charcoal gray color.”
COS
Scarf Detail Quilted Liner Jacket
“This quilted jacket immediately caught my eye. The fashion-forward scarf detail is gorgeous and I love that it’s as practical as it is elegant.”
COS
Merino Wool High-Neck Top
“I’m utterly obsessed with the color and elegance of this lightweight merino wool turtleneck. I’ve been styling it with my dark chocolate brown tailored trousers and blazers this season. Once it gets colder I’ll wear it under an oversized dark brown V-neck sweater for a chic layered look.”
Sierra Mayhew, Fashion Editor
COS
Fair Isle Wool-Cashmere Sweater
“Fair isle sweaters have truly stood the test of time and I can’t believe I currently don’t have a good one in my rotation. The dark and earthy colorway of this one stands out and feel like a cool girl approach on the classic winter staple so I’m into it. Catch me wearing it in the French alps soon!” — Sierra Mayhew
“We’ve been covering leggings a lot because the truth is, people are into them. I’ve been influenced to try styling them in an elevated way and the styling here is perfect. An elevated take on running from a pilates class to brunch is just what I need.”
Ana Escalante, Associate Features Editor
COS
Tasselled Pendant Necklace
“This minimalist tassel necklace is the perfect way to spice up any basic black sweater and jeans this season. The best part? It’s under $100.” — Ana Escalante
COS
Drawstring Crossbody Bag – Nylon
“There’s something unmistakably chic about this nylon crossbody bag. After spotting it in the SoHo store a few weeks ago, I haven’t been able to stop thinking about it. The shiny nylon material looks surprisingly expensive, especially when paired with a gray sweater and a pair of ultra dark-wash jeans.”
“Although these sock shoes are almost sold out, I still had to rank them as one of my COS MVPs this season. If your taste is The Row but your budget is no where near that, this pair gives off the same vibe for the fraction of the price. I love how they look with a long pencil skirt and a chunky knit.”
