If you are above the 45th parallel N then I’m pretty sure you have started to notice that our days no longer have been reaching highs of 30C+ and watching the sunset at 9pm while sipping that must needed frosty cocktail is now only a distance memory… SLAP! Yes, you need to stop daydreaming! Fall IS approaching and so are the fabulous fall fashion trends! Fall fashion is the most exciting in my books! Instead of trying to wear as little as possible to keep out the heat, you can actually layer your clothes! YAY! I love layering!
There are a variety of trends that may tickle your fancy this season! Here are a few options for these autumn months!
Colours of the season-
Beige, tan, grey, grey-blue, white, black
Bold colours
Aggressive and Tailored- (Harper’s Bazaars “Urban Warrior”)
A trend for and strong woman with and urban chic edge have been dominating the runway, which is a far cry from this summers flowy and ultra feminine styles. There will be tons of tailored fur coats and aggressively structured pieces with interesting lines to look forward to! This trend is hard and aggressive but still oddly has a feminine spin!
Old-fashioned Glamour
This beautiful trend is the return of quality and classic style. This trend has major staying power potential! Everything here is polished, well constructed from a variety of eloquent sensual dresses leaving everything to your imagination to structured car coats. Well tailored skirt suits are the cherry on top for this beautifully understated trend. Trend colours: Grey, Beige, Grey Blue White.
The 70’s
DISCO! The 70’s have finally returned!
This fall you can expect to see a strong influence of the studio 54 high-waisted pants and wide leg flares. Looking back to this retro style, expect lots of metallics, sheen materials, roll neck sweaters and slinky gowns. I think that I am most excited for all the cool belts that will be available this fall, thanks to you 70’s!
Bohemian Baby!
The bohemian style is something that not everyone may be able to pull off, but if you can, then you are in for a treat with this flowly and sensual trend. Mixing flowing flower print with tailored masculine peices or deconstructed yet finely tuned dresses will keep you on top! Picture frills, tulle, lace, sheer, light fabrics with a hard edge.!
The Great Outdoors
Mixing masculine and feminine will be one of the more common fall/winter trends and I suspect that we will be seeing this the most. Military… yes… AGAIN, clothing pieces will be influenced mostly by Georgian and Victorian eras rather then the most recent (?) WW1-WW2 styles. Not only is military in, another popular “woodsy” trend is all the rage, mixing classic preppy styles with ‘woodsy’ materials like tweed, fur, and colours like grey, black, tan, rust & beige. On the runways, many oversized jackets have been seen.
Unconventional & Quirky- The wildest trend this season!
This must be my favourite trend of the season! Unfortunately, I do not have a stylist and I don’t know if I could master such a unique structured deconstruction, yet I think it is completely fabulous! Mixing both deconstruction with tailor pieces, floral patterns with plaids and varying fabrics make this overwhelming bold and perfectly placed chaos something everyone should attempt this season! Maybe being for the more quirky of us, this trend has no limit!
