If you follow fashion, you know that not everything that comes down the runway is made for regular people. There are simply some looks that are best left to the professionals. That said, there are still some trends that are accessible for non-model types. Here are three of the hottest fall fashion trends to be on the lookout for this year.
1) Statement Coats.
Statement coats are, as you might imagine, coats for fall weather that aren’t your typical pea coat or motorcycle jacket. Statement coats can be oversized, brightly colored, highly embellished, made with a unique fabric, you name it—so long as the intention of the coat is to draw attention. Statement coats are not for the faint of heart, and the wearer can’t be shy or timid. These pieces will have all eyes on you, so if you’re not thrilled about that idea, you may want to look elsewhere for your outerwear this autumn.
2) Winter White.
Typically, when speaking of fashion, it’s thought of as a “don’t” to wear white after Labor Day. Of course, the first rule about fashion is that you don’t have to follow the rules, which is probably why winter white pieces are en vogue this fall. From white slacks to long white trench coats and everything in between, this frosty hue is something you’ll be seeing a lot of this season. Since white goes with most anything, there are a number of ways you can accessorize it. Pair it with bold shoes, metallics, statement jewelry, or other neutrals like black. Whatever you choose to pair it with, you’ll look as cold as ice—in a good way.
3) High-Shine Pieces.
Metallic and shiny fabrics are making waves in the fashion world, and we don’t mean by way of tacky, gold lame. This time around, materials like patent leather are very popular, as are bold metallics, and that means more than just silver and gold. Think things like pewter leather pants, aqua heels, and much more. These types of pieces, again, are rather attention-grabbing, so if you prefer a more subdued look, stick to neutrals that are shiny rather than bold colors.
