Ask any fashion editor on our team where they shop for quality basics, and I guarantee they're going to mention minimalist-chic retailer COS within their top three picks. As someone who has been shopping at COS for over a decade, I can personally attest to just how good COS's selection of versatile, easy-to-wear staples is. In fact, practically every in-the-know fashion person in my circle is savvy to the brand's sleek and elevated styles.
So when COS has a sale, we editors don't miss a beat when it comes to adding the best pieces to cart. Its winter sale right now is particularly good—filled with easy and elevated year-round basics that will bolster your capsule wardrobe in 2025.
From chic scarf coats to tailored trousers and staple tees, keep scrolling for the classics worth adding to your wardrobe from the epic January sale.
Perfect to transition you into spring. Sky-blue hues are going to be huge in 2025.
COS has some beautiful-quality coats. Run, don't walk, when they go on sale.
Something to get us excited for the warmer temps in the distant future. Style it with an oversize sweater through winter.
Style with tailored trousers, jeans, skirts, linen pants—the list goes on.
