Keep scrolling to dive into Waller’s 2025 shopping list, complete with the specific items he’s eyeing in each of the categories.
Suede Everything
"Suede continues from F/W 24 into spring with literally everything in suede, but in lighter tones for spring; I can't wait to wear suede blazers, suede sneakers, suede bags, and suede shirts. It's going to be a bohemian renaissance thanks to Chloé, so suede will be everywhere." — Waller
East/West Bags
"A continuation from last year, EW styles will still dominate as more brands put their spin on the trend. Offered in different sizes and fabrications." — Waller
Dark Denim
"Darker washes all year long in both bottoms and tops; tailored dark-denim pieces like wide-leg dark-denim trousers, structured denim button-ups, and jackets. The whole point is dressing up denim this year in darker washes in sophisticated cuts." — Waller
Boxing/Flat Sneakers
"Vintage-inspired styles with a flatter and sleeker profile." — Waller
Shield Sunglasses
"I've always loved big sunglasses because I feel like they complement my face the best, so I'm looking forward to them trending this year, especially ones that are obnoxiously large. I want that goggle-like, chic Phoebe Philo look." — Waller
Workwear/Utility Jackets
"I love jackets for all seasons, so I'm excited to get more wear out of my canvas barn jacket in early spring and transition to lightweight nylon jackets as the season progresses. Think waxy Barbour jackets, streamlined bombers, and utility jackets." — Waller
Big Bags
"Also from last year, but some styles are more exaggerated, especially crescent-shaped bags. The whole point is to carry everything you could possibly need and more. More is better this year when it comes to the shoulder bag for me." — Waller
