With New York Fashion Week behind us and cooler temperatures knocking on our doors, it’s almost time to say sayonara to our fave summer looks and make room for cozy fall styles. But which fall fashion trends are we loving right now?
If you’re looking for the latest fall fashions to adorn your wardrobe, you’ve come to the right spot. Today, we’re highlighting the top five fall fashion trends we’re “falling in love with,” and the best part is that there’s a style for everyone to enjoy – whether you’re a bold and edgy babe or prefer a more relaxed ‘fit.
Patent Leather Two-Piece Looks
One style that truly never goes out of fashion is leather. It has that confident and avant-garde approach that many men and women appreciate—whether it’s worn as a leather jacket, a formal suit, or a pair of sleek, rock ‘n’roll tight leather pants. It’s no wonder why it’s been a closet staple since the 1950s, making a lead appearance in the 80s from fan favorites like Grace Jones and Tina Turner, and in today’s world as the patent leather two-piece look.
This year, we saw the patent leather two-piece look in a variety of ways on the runway. For example, Gucci showed us sleek and stylish ways to sport the look, while Luar stepped away from the “norm” to give us high fashion and unique, out-of-this-world combinations.
Want to get your hands on this snazzy look? One of our absolute favorite patent leather two-piece looks comes from H&M. We love that it sports the ever-popular burgundy shade, a timeless hue that goes hand in hand with the fall season. (And it just so happens to be the top color for fall—more on that later!)
Go Baggy or Go Home
We hate to break it to millennials, but it’s not quite time to bust out the good ole skinny jeans just yet. Baggy jeans are taking center stage in fall 2024 – and anything from ultra-wide-leg beauties to smaller, less flashy boot-cut jeans can be showcased.
That said, now’s the perfect time to embrace your inner 70s Cher or Diana Ross and shop at stores like ASOS and Zara to get your hands on bell-bottom and wide-leg jeans. Or, if you prefer the boot-cut option, you can always shop at cult-favorite Levis. There’s a reason they’ve been one of the top go-tos for jeans for years!
Denim on Denim
Denim is one of those styles that fluctuates throughout the decade, which is why we’ll see strong and beautiful celebs like Rihanna and Beyonce step out in gorgeous denim looks for weeks, only to be “denim-free” the following years.
Well, for anyone who considers themselves a “denim diva,” you’ll be glad to know that denim is returning with a vengeance for fall 2024. And when we say “denim,” we don’t mean a single piece or two (although that’s acceptable) – we mean drenching yourself in denim from head to toe.
Don’t believe us? Then, just take a peek at what was happening on the latest runways. Prada showcased a gorgeous denim-on-denim get-up, while Diesel included a three-piece denim look we couldn’t get enough of.
TLDR: Denim is on the top of the fashion charts for fall 2024, and the more denim, the better. You can opt for two-piece or three-piece looks or mix and match patterns with your fave denim jorts (from Revolve) or maxi skirts (from AGOLDE) and call it a day.
Burgundy/OXBlood Everything
A few colors are labeled “fall colors” due to their richness and warmth that idyllically embody the beauty of the season. Such colors include deep red, light yellow, and orange. And while you can sport any of these lovely shades all season long, burgundy and OXblood should be at the top of your radar. These are the “it” shades for fall – do yourself a favor and embrace it from head to toe.
Need some inspo? Head on over to Anthropologie, where you’ll find a stunning collection of burgundy pieces to drape yourself in, from stunning dresses to classy bags for any occasion. If you’re more of a free-spirited individual, Free People has an impressive burgundy collection offering a carefree yet high-style finish.
Oversized Bags
Like denim, oversized bags are another one of those trends that seep in and out of the fashion world at the drop of a hat – with their latest craze being in the 2020s. So, if you held onto your 2020 oversized bag hoping it would make a shocking revival, you’re in luck! Fall 2024 is all about “going big or going home” – including the size of your jeans’ bottoms and your bag.
Although a few different bag styles erupted on the fall 2024 runways, the return of oversized bags was one of the hottest trends that made all viewers jump up and down with excitement. We saw Balenciaga, Miu Miu, Coach, and other classic brands show off this style with varying concepts, with the primary goal remaining the same: to reach for those oversized bags and flaunt them with pride.
Right now, it’s easy to get your hands on fashion-forward oversized bags. They’re literally everywhere and can’t be missed. However, we can’t help but love high-end and exclusive styles from Saks Fifth Avenue, the bold options from Fendi, and the boho-chic collection from Chloe.
