2019 Fall & Winter Fashion Trends

The weather is finally cool enough to sport longer, warmer, cozier clothes!  We can also relax a bit more on the daily shaving of body parts, having cute pedicures, and sucking in that belly! {Hallalujah!} But just because we’re hiding a few things doesn’t mean we have to be frumpy. Let’s turn to Fashion Week for inspiration in finding 2019 fall & winter fashion trends.

Fashion trends are usually upgraded looks from the past. This year’s looks for the fall and winter seasons are no exception; however, they don’t appear to be inspired by one particular decade. Trends on the runway seem to take cues from the 70’s, 80’s, 90’s and even a little Renaissance era. Styles varied widely in inspiration between rebellion to social issue awareness to romanticism. Some of the textures and fabrics included feathers, metals,  sustainable materials, and floral prints and ruffles.

Here are 8 of the top 2019 fall & winter fashion trends popular on the runway.

1. Capes & Cloaks

We are not talking superheroes and wizards here, though wearing one might make you feel invincible. There is something about draping a garment over your shoulders that definitely makes a impressive power statement. 

My personal favorite is the ivory, pleated cashmere cape by Loewe above! This beauty could make you feel like an empowered CEO one day and like a princess the next!

2. Light as a feather

Many designers, like Valentino, Burberry, and Marc Jacobs have incorporated a feather accent somewhere in their fall lines. A  few fashion houses have even crafted fabric artistically to have the airy “look and feel of feathers.” If you love the whimsy of feathers, but are afraid of looking a little like a bird, stick to accents on the collars and other trim around hems. You can even add them in accessories like shoes or purses.

3. Renaissance Fair

This throwback style will be easy to find as it is prominent in many lines this season. The Renaissance has inspired fashion before, but this year models grace the runway in silhouettes that actually look like Shakespeare’s plays come to life. Where are my cosplay fans?!

Honestly, the inspiration from this era makes for some very romantic and dreamy styles. Ruffles, light fabrics, pouffy sleeves, square necklines, and even some corsets were seen in some of the design houses. These styles will either have you feeling like Juliet waiting for Romeo on her balcony or grabbing a turkey leg  with your date and catching the next jousting match.

4. Styles to “Suit” You

Whether in plaid, stripes, or houndstooth, the suiting trend we saw last year continues to be strong this fall! Suiting material will come in a variety of styles. The power suit is captured in sharp shoulders (yes, those shoulder pads of the 80’s are “in” again), cinched jackets, long trench coats, jumpsuits, and relaxed trousers.

Chanel shows off their beautiful classic tweed in plaids and houndstooth. However, I easily picture myself in Celine’s stylish “Working Girl” look above. The pairing between the “suited” skirt, a leather, bomber jacket, and tall boots really gives a nod to other decades while modernizing the look at the same time.

5. Animal Kingdom

Animal prints are not a new addition to fashion. Designers love getting creative with them because the print adds an easy texture to an outfit. Like last fall, animal prints won’t necessarily play a neutral role this year either. Look for animal prints in bright colors, like the playful Kate Spade dress above in bright pink leopard print.

Also you will see snakeskin looks in more than just boots (although animal prints in accessories are huge too). Coats, dresses, and pants will see this popular print as well.

6. Neckline Appeal

A really effective way to add interest to an outfit is by creating an asymmetrical neckline. It’s a great artistic element to a garment and really highlights your neck and collarbone. *Hint: the perfect style if you’d like to draw the eyes to your face and not your hips and butt.

Many designers have expressed awesome creativity with this trend, though the one-sided, cold shoulder look remains a popular style. However, any neckline that does not mirror each side is considered asymmetrical. So you can even rock an oversized sweatshirt off the shoulder for that slouchy, relaxed, 80’s look and be perfectly on trend.

7. Pop of Color

Most think of fall colors as the muted browns, oranges, reds, & creams. But this season be prepared to see COLOR. I am talking about bright, bold, Punky Brewster-esque colors. 

These fun colors will be seen in punchy prints, different textures, weaved in as accents, as well as in many accessories. The vibrant colors will be a welcome sight to see against white snow or dull grey skies of winter!

8. Shearling, Sherpa, & Fleece Oh My

What is the difference between these fabrics, you ask? Shearling is the wool from a sheep that has only been shorn once. Sherpa is the synthetic version of shearling, aka faux shearling. Fleece is another “vegan” alternative that is similar to sherpa. Which ever you prefer, all three will have you feeling soft, warm, and chic this season. 

For those who have always rocked the cozy, Patagonia look in cooler weather, this is an easy fashion trend for the fall & winter seasons. Not only will shearling, sherpa, or fleece be functional but now it’s considered fashionable. You will love the easy-to-wear style that is simple and casual or trendy and stylish.

 

There are so many more 2019 fall & winter fashion trends that are missing from this list. But if you’re looking to freshen up your fall wardrobe, you definitely won’t go wrong with any of these 8. So, which one(s) are you going to be wearing this season?!

2018 Fall Fashion Trends

 

2018 fall fashion

I know with heat waves still running across the country it seems crazy to even think about wearing pants let alone heavy coats! But Fashion Week runs in the middle of summer and because I love fashion, I’m giving you a heads up on the fall fashion trends ahead of schedule. You’re welcome.

2018 fall fashion

There are quite a few trends that are new and some that are revamped comebacks.

Some of the trends cross paths. Like the 80’s trend and the Futuristic trend: Can we say “Hello Krystle Carrington?!” {Please tell me I’m not the only one who thinks of the 80’s drama Dynasty when looking at this dress?} The look might be updated, but I guarantee there is someone out there who wore a similar gold dress to her Prom. I just love how fashion comes full circle and then some!

Runway fashions can be over-the-top, and many times it is more of a spectator event than a predictor of fashion trends to come. It’s hard to know for certain which of these styles will become a fad especially among the mainstream population. There are many themes among the designers, but I chose 8 that seemed to be repeated more often and that would also be easy to incorporate into your own closet.

Here are 8 Fall Fashion Trends to watch:

1. Totally 80’s

Pick which 80’s trend you loved—black leather, big shoulders, puffy sleeves, ruffles, acid washed denim. They’re all there! Even bright, neon colors were spotted on the runways. If you loved the 80’s you will be happy this Fall.

2. Animals Prints

Animal prints in fashion are not new, but it’s making more of a statement this coming season. You won’t just see neutral animal print either. It’s coming in bright colors too. I think adding an animal print to your outfit is a great way to bring in a textural accent. You might bring out an inner spirit animal too.

3. Shearlings

Mostly faux furs for the animal-conscious can be found in many designer lines, but you will also still see some real fur. Many coats, either full fur, layered, or patched with other fabrics were popular on the runway. Nothing says comfort and warmth like fur wrapped around you! If you live in the cold states, this trend will be perfect for you.

 4. Futuristic

Everything from metallic fabrics, sequins, iridescent sheens, even plastic and actual metal on clothes is trending this fall. The feeling isn’t cold and metallic, but more shiny and sparkly. Seeing some of the styles makes me feel like getting glammed up and heading to the club. But ironically, I can see the pieces as being accents to a casual outfit-of-the-day look too. I love pieces that can do double duty!

5. Floral

The floral trend continues! You might think of floral as spring and summery in contrast to fall and winter. However you will see the feminine and romantic prints and how they soften the darker and cooler months. Flowers are such a breath of fresh air, and when you pair them with heavier items like a chunky sweater or puffy coat, the whole outfit feels lighter and happier! Who doesn’t want that when you start to feel a chill in the air or on a dreary winter day. I also love the play between florals and an edgier piece, like a leather jacket. It’s perfect for when you’re feeling a bit naughty and bit nice.

6. Tapestry

This trend is inspired much by Americana and the folklore spirit. You immediately pick up on Native American Indian and Western cowboy influences too. There are lots of rich colors, embroidery, and fringe. The patterns are beautiful, sometimes in patchwork style. The look has a feel of being homemade; as if someone just took it off the loom and wrapped it around you!

7. Oversized

If you want to feel protected from the elements or the world, this is your trend to follow.  We’re seeing large, puffy jackets and layers upon layers of clothes. In some ways it looks like someone picked up a comforter or pile of clothes and threw it on. It’s an interesting look for the runway, but maybe for real street fashion a nice down jacket will keep you stylish enough for this trend.

8. Suiting

There is something really sexy, yet empowering, about incorporating traditional men’s suiting with feminine lines. Houndstooth, plaid, and herringbone prints are typical and traditional in men’s suits. This fall you will see them not just in coats and blazers, but in short dresses, skirts, bustier tops, and jumpsuits. 

 

So which ones are your faves? I’d love to know which ones you’ll be rocking this fall!
