13 Fall 2023 Fashion Trends That Should Be On Your Radar
By EMILY HUNT
Elevated Athleisure
The goal of the "athleisure" trend is to feel cozy and look chic. It includes matching sets of leggings, crop tops, sports bras, and athletic jackets.
Accessorize your matching set with a pair of studs or a small necklace, or try a one-shoulder bodysuit or flared leggings with a side slit for some dancer vibes.
Modern '80s Apparel
Fashion trends from the '80s are making a resurgence this fall, with lots of geometric patterns, bold colors, oversized pieces, and maybe even shoulder pads.
When shopping, don’t be afraid to try pieces that are bright, bold, and patterned. Round them out with something metallic like a pair of futuristic sunglasses or a chunky necklace.
Bright, Bold Red
Barbiecore, characterized by bright pink, '80s-inspired apparel, has dominated 2023. We see it continuing into the fall with a new iteration of bright red colors.
Deep red shades will always have a place in fall wardrobes, but this year, try opting for a lighter, brighter red. Two good options are metallic red and red leather pieces.
Soft Textures
If minimalism isn’t for you, embody maximalism through the use of textured pieces. Feathered, fuzzy, lacey, beaded pieces are all very wearable.
To elevate a fairly minimalist outfit, opt for feathered earrings or a textured tote. For a maximalist look, opt for textures, like pants with feathered cuffs or lace bodysuits.
Shimmery Metallics
Despite its eye-catching, unique appearance, metallic clothing is very versatile. To ease into the trend, try accessories like a metallic clutch or shoes.
To dive headfirst into the metallic trend, try a metallic blazer, maxi skirt, or metallic pants. You can even opt for metallic pieces with glitter to ensure all eyes stay on you.
