A Trend Overview…
Here are three big ways to lean into the new season:
- Espresso Brown, Camel and Black are THE grounding colors for Fall outfits in 2025. You’ll find these colors in accessories, shoes, jackets, coats, bottoms and sweaters.
- Jewelry-like hardware as a statement: The rise of both pendant jewelry and hardware on bags, shoes and belts makes this trend an easy style-hack for accessorizing the heaviness of trends like dark denim, deep chocolate brown ensembles and more.
- Layering pieces like oversized crewnecks, suede jackets and lace midi skirts act as the textural foundation for this year’s most versatile styling trends.
1. Dark Straight-Leg Denim
A must-have for fall, dark-wash straight-leg jeans are making a sleek comeback. Versatile and flattering, they pair perfectly with everything from boots to sneakers.
2. Women’s Torpedo Sneaker
Sporty meets stylish with the torpedo sneaker – a streamlined silhouette that adds edge to everyday looks. Pair with trousers, denim, or midi skirts for an effortlessly cool vibe.
3. Brown Suede or Leather Outerwear
Shades of brown are dominating fall outerwear. Look for blouson jackets, anoraks, crop or bomber styles in suede or leather. A cinched waist or funnel neck adds a polished finish.
4. Statement Waist Belts
Elevate simple outfits with a waist belt featuring bold hardware. This small addition adds structure and style to oversized knits or flowy dresses.
5. Midi Skirts with a Twist
Pencil midis and lace-trim options are fall essentials, often styled with riding boots for a sleek silhouette that transitions easily from day to night. Influencers are also surrounding patterned, polkadot or bright colored a-line midi skirts with brown, gray and black sweaters, accessories and footwear.
6. Pendant Necklaces
Minimal yet striking, pendant necklaces are the ideal accessory for layering. They add just the right touch of shine to cozy knits, button ups and dresses.
7. Oversized Crewneck Cashmere Sweaters
Luxurious and laid-back, oversized crewneck sweaters are ideal for layering. Throw one over a lace tank, a classic tee, or a crisp button-up for a chic layered look.
8. Oversized Leather or Suede Carryalls
Go big with your bag this season. Roomy carryalls in rich suede or leather make a practical and stylish statement for fall commutes or weekend getaways.
9. Updated Riding and Cowboy Boots (And Rise of The “Slouch”)
Whether you prefer equestrian-inspired or a Western twist, tall boots are a must-have in deep brown or black hues for fall. This year, we’re seeing two updated silhouettes: “Clean girl” cowboy boots featuring a tall, patternless shaft and clean lines. And the minimalist riding boot, both the familiar “classic minimalist” silhouette, and a new version with added roominess at the ankle, creating textural slouchy folds.
