Grab your Joni jeans because Topshop is officially back in business.
On Saturday, Topshop and Topman returned to the runway to launch Topshop.com - just in time for autumn/winter 2025. The highly-anticipated bash took place in London’s Trafalgar Square, serving up a sartorial spectacle in the beating heart of the city who has so missed the brand’s presence after its five-year long hiatus.
Stand out moments included Cara Delevingne heading to the front row, in what can only be described as a modish marriage of two quintessentially British icons who ascended to fame in the 2010s.
Pared-back colourblocking complemented structured winterwear staples, from suede Harrington jackets to longline faux furs and Saint Laurent-inspired slouchy tailoring. Recurring hues spanned aubergine, candy pink, olive, lime green and grey - leaning into subtle dopamine dressing championed by brands including Prada and Tolu Coker.

Voluminous permed hairstyles and electric makeup blends reinforced the vintage party-girl mood of the collection, which was punctuated by studded and woven faux leather accessories in rich, moody colourways.
Zingy animal prints, metallic fishnet and heeled mules made a case for classic Studio 54 dress codes, while raised necklines, slouchy boyfriend jeans and tortoiseshell sunglasses shrouded the models in an air of enigma - ideal for modish wintertime cocooning.
Echoing Kate Moss’ legendary Topshop era, the collection distilled the brand’s moodboard into perfectly wearable pieces - bridging the gap between high street commercial appeal and high fashion aesthetics.

In fact, demand for show entry was so fierce that 500 extra tickets were snapped up before doors opened - clear proof that Topshop’s nostalgic pull still hits hard.
So, ‘Nerd’ tees and denim skater skirts at the ready - because this is the season of Topshop. Discover the best looks from the brand’s AW25 offering below.
