While the words ‘Black Friday’ are enough to send even the most discerning of shoppers into a tizzy once a year, there’s no reason to panic thanks to Italist.com, where there’s perennially up to 80% off. Alas, even the always-better-value luxury e-tailer still isn’t immune to the temptations of extra discounts for the biggest day in the annual retail calendar, and why wait ’til after Thanksgiving? The discounts are already discounting! Before you panic, here are some brands to hone in on when it comes to timeless, quality, wardrobe foundations—without sacrificing ultra buzzy and current appeal either.
Khaite
Need we say more? While Catherine Holstein is two decades into her career, it’s undoubtedly been her moment as of late. The designer, who launched Khaite in 2016, recently won the CFDA Fashion Awards accolade for Womenswear for the second year in a row, further cementing her status. From her ever-popular denim to coats that sculpt and knitwear that’ll see you through the cold snap, this is one search page result that we’re constantly refreshing.
Coat: was $2,746, now $1,826
Wardrobe.NYC
Who wouldn’t want to dress like a Vogue editor? Particularly Vogue Australia’s editor in chief, Christine Centenera, who also happens to be one of the world’s most influential stylists. Before she stepped into the top role at the magazine Down Under, the then-NYC/Sydney-based fashion director launched Wardrobe.NYC with designer Josh Groot in 2017, and arguably it was these very same stirrup leggings that put the luxury essentials line on the map.
Leggings: were $409.12, now $279.93
Sportmax
The Max Mara company’s younger brand packs just as much of a punch as its notable big sibling. Longtime creative director Grazia Malagoli has been consistently delivering fresh and sharp takes on tailoring and foundational hero pieces that scream easy Italian elegance since joining the brand way back in 1979. Now that’s impressive!
Crystal shirt: was $576.45, now $388.70
Loewe
Not to throw terms about, but Loewe literally is the hottest brand on Earth—just consult Lyst’s official Q4 index, if you don’t believe us. A solid bet is one of the Spanish house’s ultra-covetable bags or shoes, which continue to dominate in popularity thanks to innovative creative director Jonathan Anderson.
Goya Puffer Leather Shoulder Bag: was $2,599.24, now $1,959.42
Victoria Beckham
Arguably the breakout star of Beckham, the Netflix documentary that charted her famous other half’s meteoric football career, we’ve always known that Victoria Beckham has a sense for what’s ‘Posh.’ Her namesake line is no different, season after season delivering on impeccable and hard-working classics that stand the test of time.
Asymmetric Slash Jersey Dress: was $1,073.54, now $815.15
