I have to say, Fall 2024 fashion is full of new and exciting trends! With new creative leads at iconic fashion houses like Gucci, Tod’s, and Chloé, we’re seeing all sorts of styles on the runway this season.
You’ll find everything from timeless pieces at Max Mara and The Row to Fendi’s unique styles that make you rethink how you wear clothes, there’s something for everyone. Loewe and Dries Van Noten are mixing things up with unexpected pairings, and you’ll find fur (or faux fur) coats practically everywhere you look.
If you like fun and unique styles, you’ll love the bold accessories and focus on expressing yourself that’s showing up in the most popular fall 2024 trends. But don’t worry, traditional pieces like tailored suits and luxurious knits haven’t been forgotten.
Bottega Veneta’s Matthieu Blazy hit the nail on the head when he said he wanted to “make a monument out of the every day.” You’ll find that even simple pieces like leather skirts and button-down shirts can feel special with a touch of creativity and craftsmanship.
I’m also seeing a move away from needing approval on social media. The Row even banned social media at their shows! It seems like fashion is returning to its roots, with beautiful designs and quality craftsmanship taking center stage. Vintage-inspired dresses at Altuzarra and Prada are a great example of this.
In the end, it’s clear that great clothes don’t need flashy gimmicks to be appreciated. They speak for themselves!
Biggest Fall 2024 Trends
Layering Pro
Designers are introducing a new take on layering, making it easier to achieve that effortlessly styled look. For fall 2024, many pieces come with built-in styling features.
At Bottega Veneta, button-downs, knits, and jackets are connected at the seams, while Gucci has shrunken polos paired with cardigans that drape perfectly on the shoulder.
Sheer Force
You can’t overlook the sheer trend when talking about Saint Laurent’s fall 2024 collection. Proenza Schouler showcased fully transparent tunic dresses, Gucci introduced subtle sheer elements, and Fendi featured sheer skirts.
For those embracing this style, the choice is between layering creatively or going all out with bold transparency.
Split Sleeves
A standout trend on the Fall 2024 Paris runways provides a clever answer for those who can’t decide between feeling too warm or too cold: split-sleeve tops, dresses, and jackets.
Designers like Victoria Beckham, Courrèges, and Off-White have crafted long sleeves that can either fully cover the arm or allow it to slip out for a more exposed look.
Remixed Trench Coats
Why settle for a traditional trench coat when you can have one adorned with metallic punchhole flowers, transformed into a sleek matching set, or reimagined as a maxi skirt?
For Fall 2024, the options are limitless, offering a fresh twist on the classic trench.
Coat of Arms
I’m really impressed with the fall 2024 coats! They’re not just about keeping you warm, each designer is bringing their unique flair to these wardrobe essentials.
Victoria Beckham is showcasing some amazing options, from classic double-lapel peacoats to cozy shearlings and edgy leather jackets.
Loewe is taking us back in time with dramatic Victorian-era swallowtail coats, while Bottega Veneta is stealing the show with innovative cocoon-shaped jackets and luxurious wool capes. These coats are a testament to the fact that outerwear can be both stylish and functional.
Feather Weather
Feathers have always been associated with luxury and drama, and this fall, they’re making a bold statement in unexpected ways.
Forget the traditional feather boas and trims designers are incorporating feathers into everything from hems and necklines at Ferragamo and Bottega Veneta to full-on coats at Tory Burch.
I love how Brunello Cucinelli even styled feathered skirts casually, peeking out from under cozy sweaters. It’s a fresh, modern take on this classic embellishment.
Fur Frenzy
Fur and fake fur can be tricky to use in fashion, but designers are finding new ways to make them look modern and stylish. Prada cleverly combined shearling with other fabrics to create a fur-like effect on dress hems and sleeves.
Loewe’s Jonathan Anderson introduced a modern twist on the classic fur jacket with a cropped pullover style. And Bally added fur accents to sheath tops and skirts, giving them a fresh and unexpected update.
Wild Card
Animal prints have always been around, but this fall, they’re taking center stage and adding a touch of excitement to classic neutrals.
Leopard print was everywhere at Marni, Versace, and even in Seán McGirr’s first collection as Creative Director for Alexander McQueen.
Theory also embraced the trend with leopard-print swing dresses, suits, and trench coats, making it easy to incorporate into your everyday wardrobe.
Ladylike Suiting
If you love vintage styles, you’re in luck this fall! Designers like Altuzarra and The Row are bringing back classic looks from the past.
Some designers, like The Olsens, even went for smaller, old-fashioned fashion shows this season.
The Olsens even banned social media at their show in Paris! It feels like fashion is going back in time, both in how the clothes are shown and the styles themselves.
Luxurious Knits
Remember when we were all about comfy clothes? Well, things have changed! We’re out and about again, but that doesn’t mean we have to sacrifice comfort for style. Designers are creating luxurious loungewear that can take you from the couch to cocktails with ease.
The Row’s chic cashmere pants are perfect for a night out when paired with a slightly oversized blazer and some pearls. And Jil Sander’s knit sets can go straight from the bedroom to the boardroom with the right shoes, like kitten-heeled boots or mules.
Green with Envy
Every season has its standout colors, and this fall, it’s all about green a color that represents new beginnings.
Gucci went retro with 70s-inspired green suits and jackets, while Fforme showed off elegant emerald green dresses and separates.
Saint Laurent even used a rich green backdrop for their show, adding touches of olive and khaki green throughout their collection.
My thoughts:
I have to say, the Fall 2024 collections have really caught my eye! From the return of vintage elegance to the clever use of feathers and fur, there’s something for everyone this season.
Whether you’re drawn to timeless classics like I am, or you prefer bold new trends, you’ll find plenty to love.
I think it’s great that designers are prioritizing both beauty and practicality, creating clothes that are not only stunning to look at but also comfortable and versatile enough to wear in your everyday life.
