Looks from the new Laing Autumn Winter 2023 collection
New Zealand womenswear designer Laing achieves a timeless balance with its new Autumn Winter 23 collection – a celebration of harmony between past, present, and future.
Exploring continuity, each piece in the new collection is considerately designed to fold in with previous and future seasons to deliver luxuriously comfortable pieces for timeless wearing.
Showcasing cashmere knits and crisp cottons, the collection is grounded across a base of neutral shades of almond, cream, grey, and silver, with pops of violet and lilac adding an irresistibly soft rainbow palette.

Texture and shape play a central role, with the introduction of fresh silhouettes in new arrivals such as the Nico Sweater, Cassandra Blouse, and Ali Boat Neck.

“Our AW23 collection harnesses continuity and refinement, narrowing down core colours that would complement and be loved for seasons to come, not just this winter. We’ve played with favourite yarns like cashmere in new knit patterns and explored new silhouettes” says Anna Murray, founder of Laing.
Elevated comfort radiates from within the collection, reflecting a collective shift towards time spent more at home and less in the office. Rich cashmere knitwear pairs with crisp cotton shirting for relaxed yet considered attire.

“Recognising our mercurial weather patterns, our collection is designed for layering and versatility. Each piece is transitional in nature – smart but with a priority for luxurious comfort, acknowledging our new work/home balance. New styles such as the Ava Pant or Walt blouse work in the office and at play.”

The Laing sleepwear heritage is evident in the comfort and wearability of the brand’s designs, delivering a relaxed aesthetic with the principles of comfort and beautiful fabrics remaining at the heart of the design process.
