I’m a Fashion Editor—36 Items I’m Buying to Wear During NYFW

(Mariah Carey voice) It's time! New York Fashion Week is almost upon us. It's hard to believe, especially since many of us are still feeling the lull of January's calm, but fashion month kicks off in only a matter of days with the shows beginning this Monday in Copenhagen and continuing on through early March. As for this editor who calls New York City home, I'm gearing up for the shows by doing what I do best: outfit planning. I've been gathering inspiration from across the internet, from the spring runways to my screenshot folder, and of course, I have been shopping accordingly.

As anyone who attends fashion week knows all too well, crafting the perfect outfit is a balance between tapping into key trends of the season and experimenting with new styling ideas while maintaining the comfort of your own personal style. It can be a tall order, which is why I always plan ahead and map out my outfits for the week. While my exact combinations are still coming together, I'm eyeing (and, in some cases, already buying) the below items to wear to and from the fall/winter 2025 shows in just a few weeks' time. Below, see every standout fashion item I'm adding to my lineup, from opera gloves to scarf coats.
