Everyday Beauty at COS

Thoughtful details are what elevate even the simplest of COS pieces from ordinary to exceptional. In our spring collaboration, we invited likeminded contributors to contemplate the details that bring beauty and joy to their everyday lives, from what they wear, to the sights and scents with which they surround themselves.

"I wear a lot of blazers and I'm always so drawn to their different tailoring details."

CHARLOTTE KING @lepetitfika

"I love the serenity, use of natural light and play on colour of The Democratic Forest, Selected Works by William Eggleston. He has an innate sense for turning mundane objects into something of beauty."

MELISSA JANE TARLING @melissajanetarling

"I absolutely love fresh lavender, rosemary and pine trees; this takes me back to long childhood holidays in the south of France visiting my French family - I miss this very much! "

LUCY ALSTON @lucyalston_

"I naturally gravitate towards knitwear and wools, in every season."

TANICE ELIZABETH @taniceelizabeth

"Pockets are a functional detail I gravitate towards. Also, I love a bit of sleeve action which always helps to accentuate any outfit."

SHAHEEN CHAND @shaheenchand

"I like to invest in pieces that work hard in my wardrobe, whilst standing the test of time in terms of quality."

DONNA HOWELL @dhowelldesigns

"I love that I can always rely on COS for my wardrobe staples. The current collection has some great shapes, silhouettes and fabrics whilst still maintaining the less is more concept."

SANTINA HARRISON @huesofwhite

"A scent that evokes a pleasant memory is the smell of firewood, which reminds me of slow evenings and country air."

ELL RICHARDSON @elltrichardson

"I return to an image from Maguerite Duras', 'The Malady of Death'. I find renewal in the infinite ocean. What once was, will come again, what is now will be washed away."

Everyday Beauty at COS

Sculptural lines, thoughtful use of colour and understated-but-distinctive accessories are what elevates a COS capsule. In our new collaboration, our likeminded contributors share the choices that bring joy to everyday dressing.
