As the seasons change, so do our wardrobes — especially if you're traveling to fall-vibe destinations or heading into breathtaking winter wonderland vacations.
Building your stylish travel outfits for cold weather is quite straightforward, but you'd be forgiven for thinking it's not as dynamic. From essential layering, comfortable basics to durable and sturdy shoes, it's wise to plan your luxury travel outfits ahead of time — we don’t want to panic-buy and miss out on high-quality pieces we actually need for the cold sojourn.
With that in mind, here’s our curated MAYFEYR winter outfits guide — a lineup of comfortable yet chic designer travel wardrobe, whether you’re bundled up in a wooden cabin or skiing your worries away on a snowy escape.
Layering is Your BFF
When the cold, crisp weather beckons, dressing in layers is definitely the answer. From the perfect turtleneck that you can layer under classic designer jackets or coats from Brunello Cucinelli, to simple yet cozy sweaters from Thom Browne with warm thermals underneath — the choices are yours.
It’s wise to always dress in double (or triple!) layers depending on where you are, and luckily, the mélange of stylish outerwear for a winter wardrobe is never-ending. If you want to kick things up a notch, consider investing in a stylish cardigan — especially from Gucci — that’ll keep you feeling warm and looking polished throughout your travels.
While layering, it’s just as important to consider your outfit palette — neutral tones like white, black, and brown make it easier to mix and match pieces and help your overall outfit feel polished.
Winter Bottoms
Who says winter bottoms can’t be both stylish and comfortable? Luxury brands like Balenciaga and Emporio Armani offer elevated takes on athleisure, with cozy pants crafted from premium fabrics and tailored for comfort and style. You can also easily pair them with wool coats or oversized puffers for a balanced silhouette, and finish the look with walking shoes or even shearling-lined boots to stay warm without compromising on edge.
If you’re looking to switch it up, wide-leg trousers make a great winter option. Their relaxed silhouette allows room for layering underneath, like thermal leggings or tights, while still looking polished and keeping you comfortable on snowy days. Style them with a long trench coat and a cozy wool T-shirt, finished off with sneakers and a baseball cap for an effortless daytime look.
Designer Winter Shoes
Once you're bundled up in the right layers, don't forget about your shoes. Winter roads can get pretty rough, so it’s smart to invest in a solid pair of snow boots. Brands like Gianvito Rossi offer styles that strike the perfect balance between function and fashion as they’re crafted with premium materials that can handle icy sidewalks and freezing temperatures while keeping your feet warm and stylish.
From rubber leather to shearling-lined ankle boots, designer winter boots come in a variety of styles and finishes — pick one versatile enough to wear even on summer days, strolling over cobblestone streets in the city. If you're after a comfy pair for winter walks, make sure to choose walking shoes that are waterproof, have solid traction, and enough insulation to keep your feet dry and warm without sacrificing style.
Don’t Forget Winter Accessories!
Don’t overlook your winter accessories as they are able to pull the whole look together. From Burberry’s cashmere scarves and sleek leather gloves to cozy beanies, the right accessories can instantly elevate your outfit while keeping you warm. And don’t be afraid of colours! If you're dressing in muted tones, a pop of colour through a wool scarf or bright mittens can do wonders and make you stand out from the crowd.
With MAYFEYR’s curated designer picks, your next winter wardrobe essential is just a click away.
