The strongest trends seen on the runways this season, from the breakthrough shape to the latest inspiration.
The Color: Golden Child
Designers envisioned a gilded fall, rich with sequins, paillettes, and glittered sheen.
The Treatment: Wax On
A laminated finish stood out on the runways in the form of outerwear, separates and accessories.
The Pattern: Fenced In
Intricate latticework sparked the pattern, print and embroidery designs in collections from Balmain to Rodarte.
The Theme: Military Minded
Designers brought a fresh appeal to traditional military garb—from the peacoat to the epaulette— with luxe fabrics and fitted silhouettes
The Item: Suit Up
Forget the statement skirt, this season it's all about the pantsuit. Whether it's a cropped and flared retro pair, or a modern layered ensemble, designers resurrected the pantsuit for fall.
The Era: Shakespeare in Love
From designs that mimicked tapestries to ornate baroque flourishes, the fall runways exuded a Renaissance spirit
The Fabric: Velvet Underground
Perfect for the crisp fall weather, designers from Gucci to Ralph Lauren endorsed soft velvet as the texture of the season.
The Silhouette: Room to Grow
Bigger is better, as designers from Phoebe Philo at Céline to Nicolas Ghesquière at Balenciaga proved with their oversized outerwear and roomy trousers.
