With party season having drawn to a close, the introduction of a new year brings a tangible shift in the way we’re dressing.

It’s a time to bring optimism and direction to your styling, focusing on building a wardrobe of staples that are refined, distinct, and versatile.

In light of that, The Pre-Spring 2025 collection is streamlined, creating foundational pieces with heightened details. The colour palette is reflective of this — with a strong base of neutrals, grey, taupes, and whites. From marled salt and pepper to charcoal hues, grey holds the foundations to the palette — directional tones that give structure to the modern wardrobe. Alongside this are subtle, seasonal pops of Lipstick Red, Claret, Blush Pink, Jade, and Popcorn Yellow, featuring across impeccably crafted knitwear and intricately printed dresses.

The silhouettes echo this balance of classic and contemporary; dresses are sleek and refined, with a focus on special fastenings and finishings; skirts and dresses are tailored and structured; outerwear features slightly rounded shoulders and oversized, cocooning proportions; knitwear is texture and pattern rich, with engineered cables creating modern shapes.

With the transitioning of seasons underway, the Pre-Spring 2025 collection is designed to bring empowerment, versatility, and refinement to your new year wardrobe.

Whistles Signatures, like the Clean Bonded Jacket, Ida Quilted Coat, and the Cassie Double Face jacket, are all reintroduced, pairing seamlessly with the collection’s textural fabrics, contemporary silhouettes, and elevated detailing.

Late 90’s turn-of-the-century minimalism continues to be a source of inspiration, resulting in sleek, modern-day separates that look sharp and refined. Straight-leg trousers effortlessly complement shirting, arriving with slim, elongated proportions in heavy crepe and viscose jersey.

Denim appears in various modernised shapes and guises, from jumpsuits elevated with contrasting topstitching to delicately patterned shirt dresses. The emphasis on sophisticated prints continues elsewhere, with animal patterns detailed onto our signature Barrel Leg Jeans and scattered hoops on our Midi dress. Speaking about the prints, Gemma Hyde, Head of Design at Whistles, said “the abstracted floral is made up of scattered stylised flowers in layers of tonal soft blues, adding depth to the rich blue denim ground. The overall effect is one of relaxed, sophisticated ease. The Leopard Swirl is a dynamic print, realised in a painterly effect using shades of olive green, cream, black, and hints of blue, creating a visually striking contrast full of energy and vibrancy”.
