The fashion trends winter 2016/2017

Discover the fashion trends winter 2016/2017 in this article. Which items of clothing should definitely not be missing in your wardrobe this winter? Which fashion must-haves are hot? Discover it all in the winter 2016/2017 fashion trends. From 80s glamor to layers and from suede to leather, every fashionista can indulge in different looks with the trends below.

1. With a masculine touch

This is probably the biggest trend that will be seen a lot in the fashion image in the winter 2016/2017. Not surprising, because in the spring and summer people already mixed and matched with male accents. Purely feminine or masculine designs seem to disappear into thin air and gender-neutral clothing is often chosen. Think, for example, of sturdy boots or a sweater that is combined with a striped suit.

2. Clothing in layers

A striking fashion trend for winter 2016-2017 is wearing layers of clothing. Of course, this initially seems to be a particularly practical trend, especially for people who are cold (the more layers of clothing the better and the warmer), but on the different catwalks very different layers were shown. Think of a denim shirt with waistcoats over it and a jacket over it. Maybe not quite your taste, but at least you can indulge yourself with layers this winter.

3. Glamor of the 80s

Certain fashion trends come back every few years and that is the case again. The 80s look is somewhat glamorous and is especially notable because of the different retro looks. Leather skirts, strikingly pimped out tops, transparent tank tops and shirts made of layers of tulle are just a few examples of the eighties that we will see in fashion this winter.

4. Pleated clothing

Another trend that has been seen since the beginning of 2016 is pleated clothing. Skirts and dresses in particular come into their own when they have a lot of pleats. Many designers have shown on the various catwalks that pleats are going to be the trend this winter.

5. Velvet

Velvet is a soft fabric, which is not only soft on the skin but also gives it an elegant touch. For the winter, velvet garments are completely back, with the most diverse designs in a velvet jacket. Not a fan of complete garments made of velvet? Then simply opt for velvet applications that give your outfit that little bit extra.

6. Suede

Another soft fabric (in this case it's actually leather) that's hot and trendy this winter is suede. The material has a special appearance and comes into its own, especially in the cold winter months. When you think of suede, you may immediately think of shoes, but the fashion designers have proven with their collections that suede can be perfectly integrated into the design of the most diverse garments.

7. A lot of leather

In addition to the previously indicated type of leather, suede is also very popular among real fashionistas this winter. And best of all, you don't have to settle for one statement piece, but can easily combine the layers of leather. How about a leather skirt in combination with a leather jacket? Or a leather top with ditto leather pants? You can't think of it that crazy or you can wear it this winter.

8. Faux fur

Colorful fur! That's it all this winter. It is up to you whether you want to limit yourself to using a few tufts of fur here and there or whether you choose a striking poncho made of fur or perhaps a striking coat in a colorful fur design.

9. Embroidery and lace

It may not be the first thing that comes to mind when talking about the coldest season of the year, but lace and embroidery are really on trend this winter. The embroidery and lace garments can be perfectly combined with the aforementioned clothing styles, for example in combination with leather or velvet or even with a masculine touch.

10. Metallic touch

Are you a fashionista willing to stand out? Then this fashion trend winter 2016 2017 is made for you, because a metallic touch added to your clothing is not for everyone. On the catwalks were dresses, skirts, tops and trousers in metal, silver, gold, copper and bronze. Plenty of options, so you can even add a personal note.

11. Midi is the new mini

Almost all designers have opted this year to exchange the mini for the understated yet sexy midi look. This style is perfect for the smaller woman, especially when paired with the right tops, giving the illusion that you are tall and have long legs. You can perfect this look if you choose to tuck your shirt into your skirt. Incidentally, this trend also fits very well with one of the above-mentioned styles.

12. Take

Why should only men be allowed to wear a suit and not you as a woman? This winter you will steal the show with a beautiful striped suit or a suit with a striking design. Because let's be honest:a suit is nice and nice, but it can certainly have a trendy and elegant feminine touch.

13. Go outside in your pajamas

Okay, maybe not very handy to step out of the door in your silk pajamas, but this trend, which was already visible in spring and summer, remains completely trendy in winter as well. Why would you only wear those beautiful pajamas indoors and then only at night? Do you have a nice pair of suede pajamas in your closet? Then wear it when you go outside.

14. Tops and dresses with big bows

This winter 2016/2017 fashion trend is probably one of the most sophisticated trends, where you wear tops or dresses with big bows. The bow is a fashion statement in itself and should be combined with as few other accessories as possible.

15. Endless variations with denim

Denim:a timeless material that has actually found a permanent place in our wardrobe for a long time and is absolutely indispensable this winter. In addition to regular jeans, we also see tops, shirts and jackets made of denim. By the way, your favorite denim piece can also be perfectly combined with a soft velvet (top) piece or a colorful jacket.

16. Lined jackets

Fortunately, many trends are simply comfortable and not just beautiful. Take the following trend, for example:lined jackets. Indispensable for the cold who also want to look fashionable. Whether you opt for a hip bomber jacket or a stylish longer coat, it can be well lined, where you can even see the lining on the outside.

17. Quilted jackets

This trend will be very recognizable for the older fashionistas because the jackets were completely hot a few years ago. Now you can enjoy yourself again with the so-called quilted jackets. Not only is the appearance warm, the stitch that leads to these designs makes the jackets extra warm, so you are guaranteed to get through the winter warm and cozy. By the way:highly recommended for your next ski holiday!

18. High waist and ankle length

Pants that close high at the waist and just don't reach the ankles (note:not the most ideal trend for fashionistas who get cold easily), these are new fashion trends for winter 2016-2017. The high-waisted trousers can be perfectly combined with a lace top for an elegantly sexy look.

19. Military style

Apparently we still can't get enough of the military style, because this trend is making a comeback this winter. The advantage of this trend is the fact that these are often robust and warm garments, which are ideal for anyone who would like to go out stylishly dressed, but do not want to suffer from the cold.

20. Oversized sweaters

After the oversized shirts, the oversized sweaters should not be missing in your wardrobe. An oversized sweater is also very comfortable for your après ski moment. Dive deep into your comfy sweater with a cup of hot chocolate   in your hand and recover from the cold.
