The fashion trends fall 2018 must read for fashionistas. From a true revival of the '80s to futuristic metallics. Discover which fashion items you absolutely must have in your wardrobe for the coming fashion season to be able to wear trendy clothes.
The jackets that will be hot this coming season are very similar to oversized men's jackets. The bigger the better as the Americans would say. Major fashion designers such as Calvin Klein and Stella McCartney designed long coats in a masculine model, but with a feminine touch. Most designers opted for a white and black color combination and very small diamonds as the motif. This trend is ideal for the fashionista who doesn't shy away from a cool piece of clothing.
The next trend is a bull's eye for all the cold ones (like me):volume and layers are on-trend. Why limit yourself to a sweater and a jacket? In the fall, simply layer a parka over a jacket with a fleece jacket over it. Create layers and play with colors. Maybe not quite practical if you have to move a lot, but you won't have it cold. Get inspiration from the designs of Maison Margiela and Prada, among others.
Have fun with handicrafts and create a beautiful outfit with quilts, crochet a nice piece of clothing or start knitting. Autumn with its colder evenings is the perfect time to get creative again. A mix of various styles is of course even more fun. Not so handy yourself? Then opt for colorful garments that appear to be handmade. Check out Etro and Missoni's designs and you'll see what I mean.
Why should you only opt for a colorful outfit in the summer? The autumn 2018 fashion trends show that flowers are also something for autumn. The colors may be slightly darker, for example purple, orange/brown and blue, but no less beautiful. Dolce &Gabbana opts for a dark dress that shows off the flowers, while Christian Dior opted for a green dress with flowers.
The fashion trends of the '80s are back. Get ready for an autumn where broad shoulders and black leather will play a big role. Combine it all with skinny jeans to give it a modern twist and you are completely ready to take to the streets in style. Need inspiration? Then take a look at designers such as Saint Laurent and Miu Miu.
From the 80s to the future:thanks to these fall fashion trends, anything is possible. Clear plastic, iridescent holograms and metallic are the keywords this fall. Especially the color silver will play a leading role in the fashion world. Balmain opts for soft colors in combination with fraying, while Sies Marjan opts for iridescent holograms. A trend for the daring fashionista.
Don't like the above trends? Perhaps this fall 2018 fashion trend appeals to you. This trend is all about a pure outfit (preferably white), looking for a balanced balance between maxi pieces that create a slim silhouette. The advantage is that you also look longer. Valentino has done this nicely with a completely white outfit with a long sweater and pants. Alexander Wang has only opted for a long white coat in combination with black shorts and other black details.
This autumn, sheep wool and fur have been given a new look, literally and figuratively. It's done with boring fur in a uni color, this fall you get fur with motifs. Fur is also simply combined with other fabrics to create a playful look. A wool coat has also become an indispensable part of the wardrobe of the fashion-conscious woman. And the wool coats are certainly not boring, because they are combined with patchwork by Louis Vuitton, among others. Of course you have a wide choice of various colours, with even very elegant color combinations available.
