Gap is back! Loved by A-listers like Gwyneth Paltrow and Hailey Bieber, this high street store was once considered a nostalgia brand. But its Victoria Beckham collaboration has officially put Gap back on the map.
Today is the day the second collection from Gap x Victoria Beckham drops. Their first drop, back in Spring, was a sellout, and I’m almost certain this will be too. It's the perfect opportunity to get your hands on a Victoria Beckham piece without having to spend a fortune.
Designed for layering, the 37-piece collection focuses heavily on texture and proportion. Expect oversized bomber jackets as well as classic wool-blend coats for everyday wear, staple denims and branded accessories. Whether you’re a fan of VB’s tailoring or Gap's iconic logo, this collection is worth looking at.
I got my hands on the collection before the launch, and these are my favourite pieces I think you should check out on before they sell out.
The perfect denim set
I’m a huge fan of denim. I live in jeans through these months, so I love to welcome new styles into my wardrobe. These baggy jeans are a big hit. I love the shape they create as well as the soft yet supportive fit. Whilst double denim isn’t my thing, they look great with the shirt-style jacket to create a statement look. Anyone who works in fashion, like me, loves a big bag. One that you can take on shoots, for a weekend away or as chic storage. This is the bag that can fit everything you need and more. Just be aware it’s quite a naturally heavy style so it comes with a detachable strap so you can carry crossbody or over your shoulder.
The must have bomber jacket
I usually steer away from anything cropped or short in length as I tend to find them quite exposing; however, as I slipped on this silky bomber, I instantly fell in love. I feel cocooned in its softness and adore the shade of green. I paired it with the iconic branded hoodie and baggy jeans. A look I would wear walking around the park on a sunny autumnal afternoon or grabbing coffee with friends.
The only winter coat you need
Every year I buy a new coat. I certainly am not short of coats but can’t avoid wanting a new one when I see the collections dropping into stores. Safe to say I’ve found this year’s purchase. This wool blend coat was an instant favourite. It’s got a slightly oversized feel to it and is the type that would look equally good worn over a power suit as it would be worn casually over their ponte pants and baseball cap, as I’ve done here. It’s the kind of coat I will wear on repeat in the winter months, so for me it’s worth every penny.
The comfy co-ord set that will have you looking put togther
Your autumn wardrobe wouldn't be complete without a few lashings of burgundy. These cargo-style utility trousers are a great addition. They’re a lot more flexible than I thought they would be, and they have adjustable poppers at the ankle so you can taper to how you wish, either creating a soft or extreme barrel shape. Paired with this super soft funnel neck jumper, that's made from Gap's signature CashSoft, you’ve got an effortlessly chic tonal look.
Shop the rest of the collection
In the UK the collection will be available on Gap.co.uk and in two London Gap stores – Covent Garden and Westfield White City, with prices ranging from £25-£275.
