Morphology

winter + collection

The meaning 'a range of clothing and accessories for the winter season' is directly derivable from combining 'winter' (the cold season) with 'collection' (an assembled set of items), so a B1 learner who knows both words will readily infer the sense. This seasonal + product composition is common in many languages and in the fashion domain, making the expression transparent.

Etymology

Winter collection comes from fashion: designers gather warm clothes and accessories made for the cold months and show them together. Because the clothes are made for winter and shown as a collection, the phrase now means a range of coats, sweaters and accessories released for the winter season.
