It’s a widely known fact that denim (opens in new tab) is one of the more environmentally taxing materials in our wardrobe. In fact, Good on You (opens in new tab) reports that Levi’s once stated that producing a single pair of jeans requires more than 3,000 litres of water.
That’s why, we’re always on the lookout for sustainably made (opens in new tab) denim, and today Mango just launched its own iteration created with circularity in mind. Made from materials that are both recycled and recyclable (opens in new tab), Mango has thought about every step of a garment’s life cycle within this collection. The range has been made from a single type of fibre and contains minimal trimmings, which means the items can easily be recycled in years to come if need be.
Of course, this is just one step in the right direction for Mango. As a brand, Mango aims to become increasingly sustainable as the years go on, and by 2030, the brand has said that it hopes all of its garments will be made from recycled fibres or materials of a sustainable origin (opens in new tab).
For the circular denim campaign, Mango has teamed up with model Indira Scott, who explained why being the face of a recyclable collection really resonated with her. “I just remember my developmental ages like it was kind of the birthing of ‘reduce, reuse, recycle,'” Scott said.
“I feel like for me, personally—and I think a lot of people around my age relate—feeling this kind of utter responsibility to take care of our planet because we could be the last generation that’s really going to affect how the next generations live.”
From cargo trouser (opens in new tab) silhouettes to denim blazers and the cutest cropped jacket, keep scrolling to shop Mango’s new circular denim collection below.

Rixo’s new collection launches are always much-anticipated events. Over the last eight years, the brand’s founders, Henrietta Rix and Orlagh McCloskey, have honed their design craft and become purveyors of perfect dresses (opens in new tab). Unsurprisingly, the brand has gained hoards of Rixo-loving fans in the process.
Today marks a new era for the brand, as Rixo will be moving away from its previous model of bi-weekly drops, to instead start launching collections monthly. For January, the label has aptly named its range ‘New Beginnings,’ and here at Marie Claire, we were offered a sneak peek.
Over the last few seasons, Rixo has made strides to ensure its collections are more inclusive than ever. The brand launched an even more diverse selection of extended sizes (opens in new tab) last September and now caters to a range between size 6 and size 24. “People come back to Rixo because they remember how good they felt wearing it,” co-founder Henrietta Rix told Marie Claire at the time.
The feeling of a Rixo dress is certainly one that stays with you, as our editors learned this week. Keep scrolling to see our editors try on Rixo’s new collection and read our honest, unfiltered thoughts below.
Zoe Anastasiou, Fashion Editor
(Image credit: Future)
Zoe’s Verdict:
“Rixo is known for its wedding guest-ready dresses and standout, statement pieces, and although this dress is certainly a standout (just look at that print!) it also feels decidedly more casual than the rest of Rixo’s range. This is the perfect dress for daytime occasions, thanks to its fluid, comfortable fabric. I love the way it hangs, and moves freely as you do.
This dress could be styled for anything from the office, to a springtime picnic. Not to mention, the button-down front means you can also wear it open. I love the idea of wearing it open, as a light jacket over jeans and a t-shirt, or even over a swimsuit whilst on vacation. How’s that for poolside chic?”
Hayley Hasselhoff, Contributing Wellness Editor
(Image credit: Future)
Hayley’s Verdict:
“I am in love with the Lora Black Retro RIXO Dress. I got the dress in a size 18 and it fits like a glove even with a size 36GGG bust. I love the ’70s retro vibe and an a-line fit. The beautiful chiffon bell sleeves are extremely flattering and girl, does it give you an elegant way to show off your bust. The length is ideal for a chunky platform boot or a strapped delicate pointy kitten heel. The perfect dress for a day date or cocktails with the girls. I LOVED this dress. ”
Jadie TroyPryde, News Editor
(Image credit: Future)
Jadie’s Verdict:
“I really like how timeless this dress looks and feels, and I absolutely love a floaty sleeve. I wasn’t sure about the necktie at first, but must admit I am a total convert after seeing how much a little bow can elevate an outfit and make me feel instantly chicer. The fabric is super soft and lightweight, so it’s definitely one for the winter to spring crossover months.”
Ally Head, Health and Sustainability Editor
(Image credit: Future)
Ally’s Verdict:
“In a word: cute. This dress is really flattering, and I love both the sleeve detail and how the hem curves at the bottom. The bright colours and accents are perfect for spring – I can see myself wearing it to many a summer wedding and for BBQs with friends.
While it might not appear versatile at first, I chucked a cropped jumper over the top after we took these photos and was pleasantly surprised by how easy it is to layer with. As a Sustainability Ed, I’m a fan of wardrobe pieces that I can wear in several different ways, and I think I’ll have fun with this one.”
Alice Carter, Social Media Editor
(Image credit: Future)
Alice’s Verdict:
“I‘ve never worn anything from Rixo before but I definitely will be again as this dress was so comfortable. It hung on me so effortlessly and my size 10/small fit perfectly on the top as well as the bottom.
I had compliments on it when taking these pictures – people said I looked like the Spanish dancing emoji, which I loved. I would say it’s not appropriate for this time of year unless you’re abroad, but it’s definitely perfect for a summer occasion.”
The holiday season is slowly but surely wrapping up (pun intended), which means we’re headed to the middle of a cold and chilly winter. While you layer up with warm socks, cozy sweaters and slip into weather-resistant snow boots, you don’t have to sacrifice your fashion style. And, you don’t have to sacrifice convenience either: Amazon is loaded with winter clothes that not only look great, but come with the convenience of one stop shopping.
From insulated and warm winter jackets to fleece lined leggings, Amazon has you covered. Winter fashion is full of practical but fashionable outerwear, footwear and accessories. The viral “Amazon coat”, a mockneck bodysuit that’s great for layering and even a vegan leather blazer that’s great for wearing through all your day to night events can all be found on and purchased from the mega retailer. Pair warm knits with long length denim and a cute pair of boots, and you’re off for the day feeling prepared for the winter weather without losing your personal sense of style.

When it comes to staying cosy in the wintertime, nothing beats a cashmere jumper. Alongside the best cosy cashmere scarves (opens in new tab), cashmere jumpers are a secret weapon in ensuring you remain warm, no matter what the weather may throw at you.
Cashmere is a great fabric to rely on for its warmth but also for its comfort and durability (opens in new tab), and although it may err on the pricier side of things, it is certainly a wardrobe staple you will wear for years to come. If you care for your cashmere in the correct way and follow all the washing instructions, it can be an investment piece that stays in your wardrobe, providing seasons of use.
When investing in a cashmere jumper, it is important to take into account colour and silhouette. If you’re looking for a wardrobe staple, we’d suggest a neutral shade, though it can always be fun to invest in something more statement too!
Keep scrolling to read about how to care for your cashmere and then shop best cashmere jumpers around.

What is cashmere?
You might know that cashmere is a more luxurious type of wool, and therefore is more expensive, but do you know why? That is because it comes from a specific type of goat, the cashmere goat, which produces finer, softer hair. Each goat sheds its hair once a year, and there isn’t much of it, so it makes the fibre rarer and therefore pricier.
How to wash cashmere:
I’ve ruined many a cashmere jumper because I’ve either been too lazy or ignorant to wash it by hand. So first off, you’ll want to check the care label as some cashmere jumpers are machine washable (M&S do a great line), but others aren’t. Usually, you’ll need to wash them by hand in warm – but not hot – water, or in certain rare cases, dry clean only. Make sure you also lay it flat to dry so that it doesn’t lose its shape, we have a full guide on how to wash and store cashmere here (opens in new tab).
Best cashmere jumpers:
While cashmere is known for being a little more expensive, there are options available for different budgets. On the high street, you’ll be hard-pressed to beat John Lewis & Partners, M&S or Uniqlo, which all have a great range of jumpers and cardigans in various colours, under £100. If you’re looking to invest in a designer piece make sure to check out the selection at Net-a-Porter and MATCHESFASHION.
Keep scrolling to shop our edit of the best cashmere jumpers, including both 100% cashmere styles and cashmere blends.
Say hello to our brand new series ‘what to buy this week’ where I’ll be sharing the key fashion and beauty buys that both me and the Marie Claire Editors have been shopping, sharing and speaking about incessantly.

What to buy? Is a question I’m always asked by friends, colleagues and clients. As a celebrity stylist and fashion editor, I’m constantly searching and scanning the most coveted stores both online and in person. So you can rest assured that I won’t miss a thing.

This article is created in partnership with Aspinal of London, Missoma, MATCHESFASHION, Liberty, Free People, Pandora, Colombia.

One month, four cities, 247 shows. This season, fashion week felt as if it had finally been restored to its former (pre-pandemic) glory. Between New York (opens in new tab), London (opens in new tab), Milan (opens in new tab) and Paris (opens in new tab) the Spring/Summer 2023 runways were a veritable feast for the senses, complete with moments of magic—how exactly did that spray create a dress?—and theatrics a plenty (see Thom Browne sending Michaela Jaé Rodriguez down the runway in a pink Cadillac).
Between the emerging trends, fresh faces (opens in new tab) and the absolute must-see moments, Marie Claire’s runway report is here to bring you everything you need to know about the Spring/Summer 2023 fashion trends. Including how the season’s looks are set to translate into your IRL wardrobe. Keep scrolling as we recap the month that was.

2. Sheer Layering
It was the season of see-through, as sheer and transparent looks appeared all over the Spring/Summer 2023 runways. According to TagWalk, an estimated 77% of designers included transparent looks in their collections, further solidifying the trend’s prominence. Going hand-in-hand with the sheer trend, we have also witnessed a rise in VPL this season. Designers styled see-through skirts and dresses alongside visible underwear and branded bras. Molly Goodard displayed transparent tulle dresses over stripped sets, while Miu Miu continued its campaign for co-ords showcasing sheer separates worn alongside logo-emblazoned underwear.

3. Not Your Grandma’s nighties
Sleepwear is no longer just for sleeping. This season designers have taken inspiration from women’s nighties and negligees in the creation of their ready-to-wear collections. At Christopher Kane, JW Anderson and Burberry, lace was used to trim the hems of slinky silk dresses and skirts. While Prada debuted sheer dresses with lace insets around the neckline. (Some noted these looked akin to the sleepwear worn by Mia Farrow in Rosemary’s Baby.) Further adding to the sleepwear trend, Tagwalk reports that 59% of designers included lingerie of some description in their collections.

4. Sunset Shades
Dreaming of a summer holiday? Us too. Evidently, designers are no different as, this season, sunset shades reminiscent of the ombre skies you’d see on a beach vacation were all over the runway. Catwalks were awash with a palette that harmoniously fused reds, yellows and oranges, evoking a sense to calm and relaxation. The trend predominantly took off in Milan, with designers including Ferragamo, Etro and GCDS embracing ombre shades. In Paris, brand-on-the-rise Courrèges showed a sunset shade knit midi dress and crop top.

5. Off By Heart
Between the runway show turned theatrical Cinderalla story presented at Thom Browne and the myriad of hearts seen across the runways, one thing is for sure: love was in the air this fashion month. The Spring/Summer 2023 runways saw brands including Paul & Joe, Victoria Beckham and Acne Studios go all in on the romantic motif, with heart symbols appearing as prints or being sewn into the silhouettes of dresses. Nensi Dojaka took the trend one step further, featuring hollow heart-shaped cut-outs on dresses, bra tops and on the waistband of trousers.

6. Hooded Dresses
Interestingly, we have already seen this trend translated into real life as celebrities including Olivia Wilde, Bella Hadid and Michaela Coel have been spotted on the red carpet wearing hooded dresses (opens in new tab) since they appeared on the Spring/Summer 2023 runways. Reminiscent of the looks once seen on icon Grace Jones, dramatic hooded dresses were included in the collections of Versace, Alberta Ferretti and Philosophy Di Lorenzo Serafini. However, it was certainly Saint Laurent that leaned into this silhouette most prominently, as almost half of the looks in its entire S/S23 collection included a hood.

7. Done Up Denim
Over half of all designers featured denim in their collection this season, which was a 64% increase from the Spring/Summer collections last year. But don’t be fooled, the fabric has evolved far beyond just your humble pair of jeans. This season we’ve seen denim utilised in the creation of dresses, gowns and co-ord sets. Emerging designer Masha Popova showed bleached denim mini dresses and full-length maxi skirts, while Burberry layered denim pieces together to create full indigo looks. Givenchy embossed denim with the brand’s signature logo and Bluemarine embellished the fabric with studs.

8. Fancy Fringe
While it may once have been associated with the flapper era of the 1920s, this season fringe is shedding all of its previous (at times costumey) connotations. Utilised in the creation of dresses, gowns and separates, fringe has taken on a decidedly more elevated feel for Spring/Summer 2023. At Jil Sander, voluminous metallic fringe skirts created statement silhouettes, while Victoria Beckham added fringe to mini dresses. Proenza Schouler had sparkling fringe swaying from the neckline of crop tops, and Jonathan Simkhai used the detail on the hemline of embellished dresses.

THE SHOWSTOPPER
It was the finale that launched a thousand Instagram posts. Bella Hadid poised, standing statuesque inside the Salle des Textiles at Paris’s Musée des Arts et Métiers. The moment was seen the world over, as the model had a dress spray painted onto her body before the audience’s eyes. And my, did it make an impact! Karlo Otto (opens in new tab) predicts that the earned media value of the show was approximately $27.7M USD, sighting that globally, Coperni boasted the highest engagement of any show this season.
THE FACES
There were many models that made their mark this season, but no one had higher step counts than the ones above. Walking in the most shows in total across New York, London, Milan and Paris, let us introduce you to the faces you need to know.
América González | 36 shows walked.Notable brands include Chanel, Louis Vuitton, Dior, Versace and more.
Sherry Shi | 35 shows walked.Notable shows include Acne Studios, Alexander McQueen, Erdem, Simone Rocha and Max Mara.
Rachel Marx | 33 shows walked. Notable shows include Micheal Kors, Stella McCartney, Givenchy and Lanvin.
Sacha Quenby | 33 shows walked.Notable shows include Stella McCartney, Victoria Beckham, Coperni, Louis Vuitton and Raf Simons.
He Cong | 28 shows walked. Notable shows include Miu Miu, Chanel, Coperni, Victoria Beckham and Tom Ford.
THE ACCESSORIES
(Image credit: Future)
THE SHOE: Loewe’s accessories always make a splash but no shoe appeared on our newsfeeds this season quite as prominently as Loewe’s deflated balloon pumps. The antithesis of last season’s inflated balloon heels, these shoes are certainly set to make a statement.
THE BAG: When it comes to handbags, no one does it quite like Miuccia Prada. The Supernova handbag (opens in new tab) debuted as a part of the brand’s A/W22 catwalk and has since been seen on the likes of Rosie Huntington-Whiteley. Evidently, for S/S23, its reign is set to continue.
THE SUNGLASSES: The models on the Saint Laurent runway this season oozed a sense of understated cool. We suspect it had something to do with the fact that most of them were wearing wire-framed, dark sunglasses (despite the show taking place at night). Perfectly styled alongside chunky earrings and hooded dresses, there was no denying the aesthetic worked for all the right reasons.
THE FAVOURITES
LOUIS VUITTON: From the star-studded crowd to the larger-than-life accessories and constructed installation, Ghesquière’s signature creativity really shone through in this unique display.
GUCCI: Seeing double. Alessandro Michele managed to track down 68 sets of twins for Gucci’s Milan fashion week show and dressed them all in identical outfits. In an ode to his mum, the show not only highlighted his insatiable attention to detail but also his creativity.
NENSI DOJAKA: Lace touches, sheer panels, and strategically placed cutouts, everything about the collection evoked Nensi Dojaka’s signature sense of understated allure. The pièce de résistance? Emily Ratajkowski dressed in a burgundy floor-length gown, emerging from backstage to close the show. Absolute perfection!
MOLLY GODDARD: The tulle. The music. The neon. The energy. The MENSWEAR! Goddard’s vision for SS23 was one of the best moments this season.

So there you have it. Out guide to the best Christmas gifts for women. Which ones will you go for?
Whether you’re into novelty knits or chic Fair Isle sweaters, Christmas jumpers are a bit of a must for the festive season. So why not get ahead of the game and start shopping for yours now? I’ve rounded up the best designer and high street buys below. But firstly…
What day is Christmas Jumper Day 2022?
Save The Children’s Christmas Jumper Day is back on Thursday the 8th of December. You can sign up now for a fundraiser kit (opens in new tab), or simply wear a jumper, donate to the cause and spread the word on social media. The more involved, the better.
Novelty Christmas jumpers
There are plenty of chic understated options out there for the minimalists at heart (keep scrolling to shop them). That said, if you really want to get into the spirit of things, then novelty Christmas jumpers are the way to go.
If you still want to tone things down a notch, simply wear yours with straight-leg jeans or velvet trousers for a simple party look, which can be dressed up or down with heels or trainers.
Christmas Jumpers Primark
If you’re looking for a budget-friendly option, no one does festive jumpers quite like Primark. My top tip is to shop in the men’s section, as I find the quality is slightly better and I like the oversized look. Plus they don’t sell out as fast.
This season Primark has brought out matching jumpers for the whole family, with prices starting from just £5. There are plenty of different themes available too.

The ultimate winter wardrobe classic.
If you’re going to invest in one thing and one thing only for the upcoming seasons (or ever for that matter), make it a good camel coat. While it might seem a little early, trust me when I say now’s the time to buy one, especially as there are some incredible bargains around.
Don’t be fooled into thinking camel coats are boring, because the style options are endless. You will never go wrong with the double-breasted coat or the midi-length and buttonless belted version, however, this season it’s all about the more daring designs.
I am loving the ankle-grazing oversized look as seen on the catwalk at Max Mara and Fendi, but I’m also embracing all things casual. Whether that’s the long puffer jacket seen at Moncler or Brunello Cucinelli or the shearling-lined shell jacket at Stella McCartney. Tactile textures are another key look. Bottega Veneta’s fringe shearling coat is high on my wishlist, as is Max Mara’s teddy coat.
If you’re on a budget, try the likes of COS, Arket and Boden. If you’d like something more trend-led, check out Mango, Zara and ASOS.
“I have been wearing camel coats on and off since forever, there’s something about this biscuity tone that just makes you feel warm and crumbly. I divide my love for the puffer jacket, wool coat and faux fur equally every single year and have no problem at all investing in the right coat in all three shapes if they steal my heart.”
“This year I’ll be looking for a super long wool coat – probably double-breasted or slightly fitted. I’ll be teaming it with extremely long straight or slightly flared-leg jeans and a pointed shoe or boot with some exaggerated collars or a fitted roll-neck jumper. Classic and very cute!”
“The idea of a short ‘90s cropped puffer – worn with oversized cargo pants and fabulous trainers are great for stylish sporty days.”

Pure Wool Long Run Coat, £460 | Max & Co.
This exact coat was recently seen on Princess of Wales, Kate Middleton, making it outwear fit for a Princess. Made from 100% pure cool, with a classic silhouette and tie waist belt, we can certainly see why it warranted a royal endorsement.

Totême Signature Dropped-shoulder Wool and Cashmere-blend Coat, £790 | Net-A-Porter
Stockholm-based label Totême knows how to take a cooler approach on the classic camel coat; just look to the aptly named Signature coat for proof. Imbued with Scandinavian minimalism, it’s a trend-transcending piece spun from a cosy blend of wool and cashmere shaped to a slouchy dropped-shoulder silhouette.
Editor Verdict:
“I’m always on the lookout for coats that work with my outfits, rather than against them and the Toteme Signature passes the test every single time. It’s slouchy enough to look effortlessly cool, but luxe enough to make you feel like something special. Despite the fact I bought mine worn and second-hand, it didn’t show even a glimpse of bobbling—and that’s something I wish I could say for some of my more recent spenny coat buys.” – Shannon Lawlor, Acting Senior Beauty Editor

Weekend Max Mara Tempera coat, £690 | Matches Fashion
Max Mara is known for its signature camel coats. While the brand’s outerwear can set you back upwards of £1000, its diffusion line Weekend Max Mara offers a slightly more affordable price point.

Mid-Length Down Coat, £175 | Arket
Cut to fall at a knee-length, this is a slightly shorter take on Arket’s classic puffer coat. Filled with Re:Down® 100% recycled down and feathers, with a shell of recycled polyamide, the coat is designed to keep you warm during dry, cold weather conditions. The two-way zip at the front allows for temperature and freedom of movement adjustments when wearing. In team MC’s experience, Arket coats last for ages.
(opens in new tab)
The ba&sh ‘Kate’ coat makes a strong statement. This streamlined coat falls just below the knee. It has a shirt collar, slightly dropped shoulders and piped pockets. My favourite part? The trendy cord belt in the same fabric which slips around the waist through gold eyelets.
