Zara's New Collection Is Like Something Out of a Fashion Fairytale

Steven MeiselThere's rarely a Tuesday or Thursday that I don't check Zara's app and feel a twinge of excitement to scroll through that day's new arrivals. That said, I only allow myself to bask in true Zara-induced giddiness on two occasions per year: when the fall/winter Studio collection is revealed and six months later when its spring/summer companion debuts. And as luck would have it, today is one of those days.
This morning, Zara launched its S/S 23 collection and subsequent fairytale-esque campaign, which was shot by renowned fashion photographer Steven Meisel and styled by Karl Templer. The collection, according to a press release, was based on the premise that rules—at least when it comes to fashion—are meant to be broken and there is beauty in contradictions. To bring this to life, the design team took inspiration from a handful of otherwise contrasting style aesthetics from different fashion locales. "It's a mix of Parisian sensuality, a bit of London rebellion, some Scandinavian earthiness, mixed with the simplicity of dressing for a New York summer," the release explains.
See how Zara's designer brought this vision to life by shopping its brand-new S/S 23 Studio collection below.

This is the trench coat of my dreams. But actually, how did Zara know?
Short shorts are fun and all, but sometimes, they're simply not practical. These, however, will always look good and impress whomever you're with.

This one's especially cool because of how low the front is. Just think of all the layering possibilities.

I've been looking for a pair of white trousers to size up in so I can wear them super slouchy in the summer. This just might be it.
Throw on a long, chunky sweater to let the tiers on the bottom of this dress shine.
I'm very into the idea of simply styling this blouse with vintage Levi's and sandals.
I want to see Keira Knightley in this dress in one of Joe Wright's period pieces ASAP.
