Fall 2020 redefined fashion with a vibrant array of new trends in clothing, accessories, and shoes that feel timeless. Bold style mixes and innovative silhouettes deliver original, oversized, bohemian, or moody vibes for the season.
Which of these fall-winter 2020-2021 trends will become your go-to? As fashion enthusiasts, we're loving them all.
The preppy school aesthetic endures on runways and streets alike. Embrace top-of-the-class polish with a playful edge: pleated skirts, Peter Pan collars, high socks, cardigans, Prince of Wales check blazers, and sleeveless knits. It stays effortlessly elegant and chic, channeling East Coast prep.
Lamé emerges as the ultimate winter 2021 star, adding luxurious shimmer to any look—especially under lights for evening wear or as a standout dress. Its metallic threads create a futuristic glow, as showcased by Dries Van Noten. For bold city styling, pair an androgynous lamé blazer with mom jeans and sneakers.
Women are owning androgynous dressing on their terms, defying codes and conventions. Enter the resurgence of two- or three-piece suits: XXL blazers with matching trousers, completed by crisp shirts in white, sky blue, patterns, ruffles, or sheers. It's a powerhouse fall-winter essential.
Ditch short jackets—long coats dominate closets this season. Opt for wool styles with broad shoulders and extended sleeves, grazing the calves. Revel in their warmth, comfort, and signature smart-chic silhouette.
Runway-favorite black leather coats nod to '90s and 2000s retro-futurism (think Matrix era biker vibes). Black is bold and remorse-free: layer over a black dress with platform shoes and shades for total black allure.
Once sidelined, the bourgeois cardigan returns refined and irresistible. Choose luxurious fabrics, floral motifs, or vintage charm, paired with faded jeans for everyday elegance.
Checks blanket the season across blazers, coats, and pants, but checkered shirts steal the show into 2021. Far from Western roots, wear them as shirts or overshirts anywhere—we're hooked.
Stripes evolve into zebra prints for fall-winter 2020-2021, unleashing wild, eccentric energy. From classic black-and-white to camel or vibrant hues, they tap our primal style instincts.
Beyond black, vivid red and purple inject life into winter wardrobes, shattering neutral norms with color blocking. Mix brights like yellow-blue-purple or red-orange-burgundy—start with red or purple and layer boldly.
Chunky sneakers fade for XXL ankle boots channeling '70s disco platforms. Animal prints (snake, croc, zebra, big cat) rule, while geometric heels and shiny pumps deliver femme fatale edge.
These 10 fall-winter 2020-2021 trends bring warmth, spice, and sophistication. Mix them freely for fresh, elegant looks in any era.
