10 Wardrobe Essentials for 2025
Fashion trends come and go, but staples remain the same. The trick is to know what to invest in to build a solid collection of go-to essentials.
Looking to switch up your wardrobe in 2025? Here are 10 wardrobe essentials that will help you build the foundation for any fit.
Basic White Tee
The absolute classic, the non-negotiable essential - the white t-shirt. The epitome of simplicity and versatility, a white tee pairs with jeans, joggers and anything in between. A high quality option can elevate the simplest of outfits, which is why it's always a safe bet to have a few.

Baseball Cap

White Trainers
Every person needs a pair of clean white trainers, period. Brands like Adidas, Common Projects and Converse lead the pack with iconic designs that scream minimalism. Just make sure you keep them clean, because no one wants to see a scruffy shoe.
Chain Necklace
A simple piece of jewellery, like a chain necklace, can add some personality to your look. Whether you go for a thin chain or a chunky pendant, it will compliment both minimalist and maximalist looks alike. Check out brands like Tom Wood, Serge DeNimes or your local jewellers for high-quality silver or gold options.
Denim Jacket
A high-quality denim jacket is a timeless piece that can be layered all year round. Levi’s is an obvious go to for its heritage and durability, whilst brands like A.P.C. offer a more modern take. In our opinion, a denim jacket over a hoodie or white tee is an unbeatable combo.

High-Quality Socks
This should go without saying, but high-quality socks are often tossed aside in favour of cheaper options. If you’re looking to keep things simple, neutral tones are a must. But if you want to add some flair, bold patterns or logo-heavy styles can really complement your outfit. Brands like Dickies, Stance and Carhartt WIP are perfect for adding that pop of color.

Joggers
A good pair of joggers can be paired with other key pieces in your collection for a laid-back, stylish look. Whether you dress them up with a jacket or keep it casual with a tee, they’re a versatile must-have for any wardrobe.

Hoodie
The key piece in any streetwear wardrobe, a hoodie is the ultimate layering piece. Neutral colors like grey, black or navy work best. For durability, go for brands like Champion or Carhartt, but if sustainability is a priority, we’re all about up-and-coming brands like Pangaia.

Sunglasses
When it comes to sunglasses, we're all about timeless classics. Stick to reliable options like Ray-Ban or Persol. And if you want something more iconic, go for Oliver Peoples. There’s nothing better than a pair of high-quality frames that never go out of style.
Backpack
Whether it's a holdall or satchel, a sleek backpack is essential for work, travel or everyday use. Keep an eye on brands like Herschel, Bellroy or The North Face, all of which mix practicality with style. To keep it classic and wearable, stick to timeless colors like black or charcoal.
With these staples, you're already on the right track to perfecting your 2025 wardrobe.
