Autumn is quickly approaching and the change in season means cooler weather and a new wardrobe, as we can finally trade in our sundresses and sandals for blazers and scarves. So what’s trendy for this autumn? Let’s take a look at some of the hottest fall fashion trends that are fresh off of runways and fashion weeks all around the world.
Accessories
Accessories are a fantastic way to dress up what would other be an otherwise boring outfit and they give you a chance to be bold without risking going too far. An entire outfit can be transformed by the perfect accessory, whether it’s a hat, a statement piece of jewellery or a scarf that provides a pop of colour.
Catherine Garvin reported from various fashion shows in Berlin that accessories like mod short-brimmed hats and statement pieces like broaches are all the rage, because they give any outfit a clear focal point and can easily be interchanged and worn with many things. The right accessory is memorable and versatile.
Colour
There is a tendency to wear darker colours during the colder months – you’ll see seas of black, brown, navy and shades of grey – but don’t feel shy to play with bright colours in the fall. A colourful piece of clothing can give you a youthful, refreshed look. Pantone recently released their predictions for autumn’s top colour trends, and they are: greens, ranging from earthy moss green to emerald green, Acai purple and samba red. Expect to see some lively, bold colours mixed in with the traditional autumn earth tones.
Blazers and Coats
Autumn is the perfect season to experiment with blazers and light coats, as you won’t need a heavy coat for some months. Marie Claire UK features some chic and stylish coats that are perfect for autumn; there are the classic black and navy pieces as well as some fun, colourful pieces for people who want something a little different. The classic cinch waist coat is always in style, as is the classic blazer. These are staple pieces that will be in your wardrobe for years to come, and they’re extremely versatile and wearable throughout many seasons.
Above all, only purchase pieces that you are comfortable wearing.
