Presenting: The 8 Basics You'll Want to Have on Lock in 2021
Ready for a fresh dose of basics? Well, seeing as you're reading Who What Wear already and you found your way into this story, I'm going to assume that's a resounding yes. There's no question that we're keen on wardrobe basics here seeing as we're always discussing them and highlighting where to find the best versions. So you didn't think we'd skip the opportunity to report on the latest batch of basics descending on us this year, did you?
Nope, we're taking this chance to talk about the best basics 2021 has in store for us, and—newsflash—they're really good. From the updated suiting separates we've been seeing on the S/S 21 runways to the cardigans that fashion girls have already begun wearing nonstop, continue on to discover the eight new staples you're about to see a lot more in the coming year. Of course, if you're so inspired to shop, I'm featuring my favorite versions here too.
Suiting separates have been around for a minute now but this year, we're about to see one specific item take hold and that's what I'm calling puddle trousers. The runways confirm that these extra-relaxed and slouchy trousers will reign supreme.There's something that feels so fresh about a collared sweater. The detail is a relatively small addition but somehow transforms even basic pullovers into something much more current and cool. I think we're only going to see more of the style, so I suggest you secure one stat if you haven't already.After several seasons of longer hemlines, mini skirts are finally returning to the scene. We spotted a slew of these simple micro minis on the S/S 21 runways—from Miu Miu to LaQuan Smith—which tells me that it's a basic worth adding to your closet now.Even though we once considered them a trend piece, cardigans are basically a wardrobe staple now and the specific styles we're about to see more of are these slightly longer chunky knits ("grandpa" sweaters, if you will) that might even eclipse cropped cardigans. Is it 2021 or the '90s? Fashion's favorite decade to take inspiration from is back yet again, this time delivering a basic we can already see ourselves wearing on repeat: sleeveless turtlenecks. Keep it simple like Camille did here and wear one with trousers and a shoulder bag.Wearing a coat is no longer a burden when it's one of these luxurious wool toppers. With a relaxed shape, they honestly feel as comfortable as wrapping yourself in a blanket, but they're ultimately so chic. What's not to love?If loafers were the trendy flats of 2020, then I'm calling it now: derby shoes are set to take their place in 2021. The lace-up shoes are especially cool with a platform sole and we suggest leaning into their academic vibe by styling them with tall socks and trousers.And now for the easiest item to wear on this list: quarter-zips. The pullover is undeniably having a moment right now and we've been spotting them all over, whether it be designer versions like the Isabel Marant sweater pictured above or simpler takes featured on Nordstrom and Shopbop.
If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
