Give your wardrobe a stylish makeover in the new season
Fall always calls for a wardrobe refresh, as you embrace the colors and designs of the season. Here are five trends that will keep you warm as the temperature falls, while you look stylish and on point for the season.
Sweater Dresses
The recent fashion shows of Isabel Marant, Max Mara, and Tod’s showcased sweater dresses. Style these dresses with sneakers or high heels, depending on the occasion or your mood. Versatile by nature, the mixed silhouettes of these dresses make sure they are perfect for date night or a day at the office.
Sculpted Sleeves
Popularized by Louis Vuitton, A.W.A.K.E Mode, and Anteprima, clothes with puffed and padded sleeves can instantly add a certain zing to your clothes. These sleeves make a compelling fashion statement and can elevate an ordinary looking dress several notches higher. Pair with minimal jewelry to keep the focus on the garment.
Color Coordinates
Creating a fashionable color contrast against the grey skies. Pick hues of olive green and yellow this fall as showcased by Christopher Kane and Prada. These shades make for an unusual neutral palette and make a compellingly personal statement about your fashion sensibilities.
Tartan Rules
From Saint Laurent, to Etro and Christian Dior, tartan has ruled the runaway courtesy its plaid patterns and woven texture. Whether it is shawls, separates or pencil skirts, tartan has managed to make inroads into various kinds of garments this fall. With its signature checkered designs, they have always been favored by royalty and are most comfortable for the fall season.
Boxy Blazers
Stella McCartney, Saint Laurent, and Vivienne Westwood have all recently shown this XXL blazer trend. Oversized blazers are making a return with double breasted buttons and more. Slip your blazer over denim or a satin dress to go from drab to fab in a jiffy. Pair with a nice pair of boots and voila! You’ve had a chic makeover. Make sure you choose a comfortable fabric or vegan leather to ace your look.
