Although fall may not officially begin until September 22nd, the second September hits the itch for fall fashion and simply can’t be ignored! Now that fashion week is back in full swing, we can’t help but notice the excitement in the air to embrace new fall fashion trends. We’ve been seeing everything from ‘balletcore’ to biker chic, and we can’t wait to embrace the trends fall 2022 has to offer.
If you’re as excited as we are for fall fashion, here are some trends you should definitely have on your radar!
Balletcore
Balletcore as a whole is a trend that we’ve been seeing throughout summer and is being carried full force into fall. More specifically ballet-style shoes have been taking over the fashion scene. Miu Miu’s ‘Satin Ballerinas’, for example, have been going viral and they are super reminiscent of traditional pointe shoes, (hopefully more comfortable than pointe shoes though!).
Midi & Maxi
For those of you who didn’t love the micro mini skirt trend, you’ll be happy to know that midi and maxi skirts and dresses alike are making a major comeback for fall! We’ve been seeing hemlines get longer from just past the knees, all the way to the ground. Styled with a pair of chunky loafers or statement boots is such a vibe.
Waistcoats
It’s no secret that waistcoats are hugely popular right now! This piece will easily be carried over into fall with its layering and styling capabilities. We’ve seen it worn with matching trousers for a suited look, or styled as a single piece – both equally chic.
Baggy Jeans
The baggier the better, when it comes to your jeans this autumn! Not only are skinny jeans being left behind, but baggy, loose-fitting jeans are being favoured over all else. Bonus points for mid and low-rise styles!
Biker Chic
Rev your engines because the biker trend is back! All you really need to accomplish this trend is a staple leather jacket, specifically, a moto jacket if you have one handy. You can take it to the next level by pairing it with leather pants and or some black leather boots if you wish. Basically, just incorporate a lot of leather.
Home-made Knits
Home-made knit pieces, especially ones with loose or “un-done” finishes are a trending layering piece for fall! We’ve seen hand-made knit sweaters, cardigans, and shruggies styled over pretty much anything from simple tanks to fancier dresses. Opting to shop this trend from smaller creators is the move!
Prep School
Whether you’re walking the hallways or not, take notes from prep school uniforms for this trend! Collared shirts, pleated skirts, knee-high socks, loafers, and even varsity jackets are all trending fashion pieces that are easily categorized into the “prep school” trend. Where the pieces all together for an extra preppy look or mix and match.
Tall Boots
It’s never too soon to pull out your tall boots if you ask us. Putting on a pair of statement boots instantly elevates, and makes any look more autumnal. Knee-high boots, over-the-knee boots, and western boots are all appropriate options!
Sheer Fabrics
If you’ve been paying attention to current fashion week streetwear styles, you’ve likely noticed the sheer clothing garment craze. Once it was more likely to see this trend on models on the runway, but now it’s become a huge trend to wear a sheer top or dress out and about.
Long Coats
As practical as it is stylish, long coats are definitely a fashion trend for the fall! Whether it be a classic trench coat or a colourful faux-fur peacoat, long coats and jackets are being worn as the focal point of an outfit, rather than just as a garment to keep you warm. With the colder weather coming, why not treat our jackets as a fashion statement?
Silver
Not only in jewellery, but in all forms – silver is taking over. After a major part of the past couple of years being spent in casual attire, it’s no surprise that people want a little more glam in their day-to-day style! Not only can silver be styled in a glam way but it is also known to be a tad more grunge than gold, making the styling possibilities for this trend endless!
