This was my first time visiting Copenhagen, and I spent a week exploring the city's different neighborhoods. I immediately noticed how simplified and pared down the fashion is. Most people I spotted wore quality basics that can be mixed and matched and seamlessly blend from day to evening. While colors are embraced, neutral colors are popular with oversized silhouettes. Whether you're visiting Copenhagen or need winter styles that will withstand the test of time, here are 12 pieces to inspire your cold-weather wardrobe.

Hailey Bieber is minimalism personified. On the fashion front, the Rhode founder keeps her wardrobe streamlined in neutrals (mostly), sleek silhouettes, and understated pieces. (Case in point: She's never met an LBD she didn't like.) Even her dewy signature makeup, which spawned the "glazed" trend and countless TikTok tutorial videos, is built on the premise of a flawless and moisturized base - no bold tricks necessary.

It all began with the jacket. Giorgio Armani twisted and bruised the angular piece of clothing - tearing out the padding, adjusting the proportions, moving the buttons - until he was left with something supple as a cardigan, light as a shirt. "Removing all rigidity from the garment and discovering an unexpected naturalness," as he put it years later. "It was the starting point for everything that came after." His 1970s reimagining of the jacket - a study in nonchalance - was to be his statement of purpose as a fashion designer.
