These Were the Most Popular Zara Buys of 2017

by Hannah Almassi

It's hard to remember a time when Zara wasn't omnipresent. This year has been no different from the past few—the Spanish superstore has provided many a runaway fashion moment. It's been a particularly strong 12 months for the brand's shoe department, as we've witnessed at least three particular pairs of boots go viral on Instagram. (And that's before we start on the kitten-heel market it's cornered.) Zara's well-loved outerwear section wouldn't have been complete without a host of checked blazers and coats that saw tills ringing. Recently, one of the brand's heritage blazer-dresses has become a real hit amongst style bloggers.

It's likely you've bought into at least one of these Zara trends, if not all 11. Scroll through the gallery below to see the brand's biggest moments of 2017, and then shop new items available now.

Style Notes: Month after month, Zara has produced incredible kimonos. It was a tough call to decide on the most sought-after—it's between these satin, vintage-looking ones and a pale-green floral version that went all over Instagram.

Style Notes: From Emily Ratajkowski's cotton sundress to the longer-line shirtdresses that fashion fans layered over jeans, Zara's striped offering was strong this year.

Style Notes: Freddie Harrel was just one of many fashion girls to invest in Zara's earring collection. They're constantly being updated—and the primary and secondary colour pieces are extra good.
