I have been following the fashion collections that Zara presents in the United States. This time, I’m immersed in meticulously studying the fall-winter 2024 collection, which reflects the keen sensibility of the designers of this international haute couture brand. I found a clear tendency towards maximalism with barely perceptible retro airs.
When comparing Zara’s collections to those of other fast fashion brands in the United States, there’s a greater emphasis on quality materials and attention to detail, and these five fall pieces are everything that’s right when it comes to design. , quality, clarity in decisions, and avant-garde.
Pinstripe Asymmetric Skirt — ZW Collection
The design of the Zara Pinstripe Asymmetric Skirt ZW Collection is a reinvention of the classic mid-length skirt cut. Its asymmetrical cut plays with proportions in a bold way, creating a dynamic silhouette that flows with every step.
Ideal for those looking to fuse classic with an avant-garde touch, this skirt envelops you in an air of sophistication, while the subtle vertical stripes provide the perfect amount of stylization. The fabric has a structure that provides movement and modernity, perfect to combine with an oversized jacket or a sweater for a chic look that can fit perfectly at a work meeting or on a causal night with friends. The price is $89.99.
Long Multi-Positional Dress — ZW Collection
This elegant and sexy black dress that one does not know if it wants to be minimalist or maximalist, because it can be both depending on the context of the outfit. The dress features a simple round neckline and long sleeves creating a slim silhouette. The fabric has a soft and fluid texture, and has a line of buttons to change the way it outlines the silhouette.
That is why it is a multipositional dress, because when you button it, it becomes a totally different piece compared to the completely open dress. The look can be complemented with black knee-high boots, which create a strong contrast with the soft flow of the dress, or refined and exquisite black heels in some shiny finish. The price of this fantastic collector’s piece is $109.
Denim Skirt With Slit — ZW Collection
This beautiful and simple denim skirt from ZW Collection has a high waist that accentuates the waist and stylizes the figure, while the opening adds a sensuality to the movement, revealing a little of the calves.

Wool Blend Jacket — ZW Collection
This Zara jacket is conceptually somewhere between a bomber jacket and a parka, for a more casual and fun look during the colder months that are coming.
It is all in one fabric, it is made of 50% wool with other recycled synthetic fabrics, and its removable hood is a great idea because, when not needed, it can be removed and left at home, so as not to have it on your back unnecessarily getting in the way: just You install it when you need to protect your head from the cold and wind. The hem is adjusted with a drawstring to prevent the cold from entering, and the cuffs are tightened with elastic to keep your arms warm. The price is $169 in all Zara stores.
Belted Knit Jacket from Zara
This Zara jacket, which is more like a knitted cardigan, has long, wide sleeves and an integrated belt closure. The color is a mélange gray, which easily fits all types of autumn and winter outfits.
Combine it with a long-sleeved t-shirt, or a long-sleeved blouse in a warm fabric, and with the Denim Skirt With Slit that we mentioned before. It goes well with flats, winter boots, or knee-high boots. The price is $49.90.
