Following the announcement of Pantone’s 2025 Colour of the Year, Mocha Mousse has been dominating the high street and these are our favourite pieces from Nobody’s Child
Following Pantone’s announcement that 2025’s Colour of the Year is ‘Mocha Mousse’, searches for ‘brown clothes’ have sky rocketed. With a warm and creamy hue, Pantone describe the shade as appealing to ‘our desire for comfort’ with warm tones of chocolate and coffee.
While we’re certainly partial to a mocha latte, if you’re looking at ways to incorporate the trendy colour into your wardrobe rather than your kitchen, there’s one high street retailer that are ticking all of our boxes and more. The Nobody’s Child ‘Chocolate’ edit is proving popular with shoppers, whether you’re layering up or dressing up.
Think luxe tailoring, cosy jumpers and elegant dresses, all adorned in a deep, indulgent chocolate brown. We’ve picked out of favourite pieces from the edit that you can shop now and all of them are so stylish, we reckon you’ll be wearing them well into next year, too.

Chocolate Brown Double Breasted Relaxed Blazer
If you’re yet to find the perfect boyfriend blazer, this offering from Nobody’s Child should fit the bill. We’re big fans of the timeless notch collar and it can be worn with the matching trousers, or opt for a larger size than your usual and style it as a blazer dress with heels or boots.
At £120 it’s the most expensive item in our round-up but a blazer will soon become a staple in your wardrobe that you’ll find yourself reaching for time and time again. If it’s a little past your price-range, New Look’s Brown Double Breasted Blazer gives a similar look for £45.99.
Brown Alpaca Wool Blend Short Sleeve Knitted Top
Described by Nobody’s Child as ‘the softest top’ this round neck, short sleeved knit would be the perfect pairing with a some jeans. The £75 buy is crafted from alpaca wool, but it can still be machine washed making it practical as well as pretty.
Ideal for that in-between weather, when you’re cold in the morning but boiling when the afternoon rolls around, it’s the epitome of style and sophistication. Uniqlo is also an excellent option for premium knitwear – this 100% cashmere jumper in brown is on sale for £79.90, down from £109.90. It’s also part of the Anya Hindmarch collection making it a super stylish option.
Brown Long Sleeve A-Line Penni Midi Dress
A feature we love the most on the Penni Midi Dress is the open scoop back. It sets the £79 dress apart from other options on the market such this £45 ASOS DESIGN seam detail midi dress with buckle straps in chocolate. Giving the illusion of a skirt and a long sleeved top, the Penni makes picking an outfit seriously easy as it is all done for you.
The close fitting top falls into a relaxed swishy skirt and it’s a winner for every occasion. We can see it looking amazing paired with layered gold necklaces and hoop earrings.
Brown Satin Mila Midi Slip Skirt
A satin slip skirt will be a timeless addition to your wardrobe as it can be styled with so many different things. From knitwear to t-shirts, its simple silhouette is what makes it so versatile. The Mila skirt from Nobody’s Child comes in a gorgeous dark chocolate brown and it will set you back less than £50.
The satin material might require some delicate handling as it can easily crease. For an alternative that might be better if you want to pack it in a suitcase is the Paulo Due Elasticated Waist Maxi Pencil Skirt from Debenhams. It’s £17 and shoppers say ‘this is a lovely skirt and the colour is just beautiful and so on trend at the minute’.
