We know our readers love a good Free People find… as do our editors. We’re always more than happy to keep tabs on the best new Free People styles to shop. When new releases can be overwhelming, we’re here to bring you the best-of-the-best options worth your attention and money. 

And now that winter is almost officially here, it’s a great time to take a deep dive into your closet to see what you need to re-stock. Do you need a new thick, winter coat? Maybe a new cosy knit to hibernate in? A new activewear set to brave winter workouts? What about your hat, scarf and gloves situation? Free People has fresh new styles that fit the bill. From clothing to accessories, we’ve put together a list of must-haves from Free People’s new arrivals section.

You’ll find a mix of products, many from Free People’s fan-favourite collections like FP Movement, We The Free and Free-est, to suit whatever vibe you’re going for this winter. Once you’ve perused our roundup, only one question will remain: How to choose your favourite?

All linked products are independently selected by our editors. If you purchase any of these products, we may earn a commission.

FP Movement Quilted Carryall, £68

FP Movement’s carryall bag is perhaps the collection’s most beloved piece. It’s no surprise why. This bag holds so much: your laptop, book, lunchbox and umbrella for the commute; gym kit; weekend staycation essentials. It’s designed with lots of handy pockets, too, which are perfect for stashing away smaller items. It’s also available in so many different shades (32 and counting!), from vivid brights to pastels and earthy neutrals. This bold cobalt blue is a bestseller and a welcome pop of colour during winter.

Hot Shot Collection Hot Shot Onesie, £70

When you don’t have the energy to put together an outfit, this onesie has your back. It’s another Free People bestseller, with a 4.7-star rating and over 2500 reviews. Customers rate it for its comfort and versatility, and describe owning the same style in numerous shades.

We The Free Queen Of Hearts Thermal, £98

Upgrade your usual thermal layer with this cute cottagecore inspired design, made in 100% cotton. The Peter Pan collar will look great peeking out under your knitwear and you’ll keep warm and cosy — genius!

Did someone say they were looking for the perfect winter wedding guest dress?

FP Movement Pippa Packable Puffer Jacket, £188

This is an unanimous favourite amount team R29. We love it for its practicality (you can fold it away when not using, use it as a pillow when travelling), its comfort (its surprisingly warm despite being a thinner puffer), and its versatility (you can easily dress it up or down). For example, when testing this puffer out, our Fashion Editor Ebony styled her jacket with a pleated midi skirt and knee-high boots, whilst others layered it over activewear for winter work outs. This is another item available in an array of colours — currently, 24 shades are available.

We The Free Good Luck Printed Barrel Jeans, £118

These jeans tick off two major autumn/winter trends, one that dominated last year and is set to continue to do so — leopard print — and the second, a newer arrival: The barrel leg silhouette. Having fun bottoms is also a great fix for winter. Too cold to care about fashion? No problem.

FP One Ember Printed Midi Skirt, £118

In case you missed it, polka dot prints made a return this year. We love this easy breezy update on the retro classic — it’s a piece that will serve you well throughout all seasons, with a chunky knit and boots now, and ballet flats and a cami top come summer.

Intentionally Blank Tied With A Bow Ballet Flats, £148

Ballet flats are undoubtedly the It Shoe of the year. We can’t help but obsess over this pair. Everything about them just screams winter decadence: the forest green colour, the rich velvet, the present-like bow!

Catch us wearing this knit dress all winter long (probably with thermals and ultra thick tights underneath).

Solid Cotton Candy Puffer, £158

If you’re after a properly thick puffer that won’t make you look like the Michelin Man, our money is on this one — we love the cool arm detailing. Commenters say it runs large though so best to size down with this one.

Free People Frankie Cable Sweater, £88

If, like us, Rory Gilmore’s perfectly slouchy, oversized, cream cable-knit jumper lives rent-free in your mind, then this one’s for you. Accessorise with a steaming cup of coffee and a stack of your favourite books.

Intimately From Me To You Long Sleeve, £40

It may sound counterintuitive, but sheer lace or mesh tops like this are great for winter. Trust us, you can layer them over your basic turtlenecks or thermals to spice up your everyday look, or layer them under party dresses at night.

Free People Alma Duffle Coat, £248

If the thought of leaving your warm, cosy bed on a winter’s morning sends shivers down your spine, this is the coat for you. It’s basically just like wearing your dressing gown out, except in a chic, socially acceptable way.

FP Movement Out Of Your League Leggings, £88

They may be expensive but FP Movement’s leggings are well worth it. This pair is designed to fit like a glove, with four-way stretch and a mid-to-low compression that’s perfect for yoga or low-impact activities. Alternatively, they’re buttery soft and silky enough to wear just for mooching around the house. Our favourite features are the high waist, side pockets and the ruching at the ankles (and this pumpkin spice shade, which just screams autumn).
