Before summer ends, we're enjoying colorful and fun poolside looks. But when autumn comes, we'll return to more serious and stylish clothes and our regular routines. The fashion trends for fall 2023 are about looking polished and fancy but still with some fun and shiny elements.
Before summer is over, we're starting to plan our outfits for fall and winter. We're looking at the popular styles shown on runways in places like New York and Paris.
Designers like Valentino focus on shades of red, and brands like Alexander McQueen and Dior are excited about formal suits and ties. The outfits for autumn will be both daring and elegant.
And if you like unique styles, there are even space-themed looks to make your cold-weather outfits special. Keep reading for a list of the top trends for fall 2023 that you can add to your wardrobe now.
1. Simple Colors Together
When something happens, a reaction usually goes the other way. This is true in fashion, too. After the bright and pink Barbie-style fashion during spring and summer, the fall and winter runways had many easy-to-wear colors.
These were whites, blacks, chocolates, creams, grays, and dark greens. These calm and stylish colors make us want to wear simple, minimalistic styles this season. Designers like Paul Smith, Marc Jacobs, Alaia, and Hermès showed these outfits.
2. Sweater Time
Fall is a great time to wear sweaters. Fashion brands like Bottega Veneta, Louis Vuitton, and Victoria Beckham showed big cozy sweaters like leggings and warm scarves. This is it if you need a sign to add more sweaters to your collection.
3. Styles from the 2010s
Fashion has been influenced by the Y2K trends from the early 2000s in recent years. But now, we're seeing fashion from the 2010s becoming more popular. This includes things like mixing high and low styles (Versace and Rochas), peplum shapes (Brandon Maxwell and Tove), and ruffled, uneven hemlines (Acne Studios and Coach).
These styles are perfect with the newest JAPAN NOW autumn collection.
4. Showing Off Shoulders
Dresses and tops that show off the shoulders are making a big return this season. They're sleek sexy, and can be worn in many different ways.
Designers like Paloma Wool and Tory Burch kept it simple, while Acne Studios, Jonathan Simkhai, and Carolina Herrera added straps and puffy sleeves. It's a nice way to show some skin in the fall. And if you get cold, you can always wear a scarf. Just make sure to have a good strapless bra.
5. The Color Red
Red is a desirable color this season, especially because of the great looks by Valentino. The fashion brand that made Barbie Pink popular even before the Barbie movie came out is now promoting a new shade of red for the fall.
Big names in fashion, like Jacquemus, Stella McCartney, Lanvin, Loewe, and Prada, also use this color. There are many more, too.
