Fall 2025 Fashion Trends: Something for Everyone

No matter your personal style—minimalist, maximalist, or somewhere in between—this season’s collections offer plenty of inspiration. Whether it’s bold new layering techniques, unexpected accessories, or a fresh take on eclectic dressing, the clothes themselves weren’t the only standout—it was how they were styled, too.

Prep-inspired looks brought a bookish charm, reinventing classic pieces like button-downs, pencil skirts, and varsity jackets with clever twists. Meanwhile, ultra-quiet luxury took a backseat as even minimalist brands embraced texture through fringe, tassels, and dramatic draping. A romantic, feminine energy also ran through collections from Chloé to Dries Van Noten, moving beyond clichéd boho vibes.

Below, a first look at the key fall/winter 2025 trends as they start arriving in stores. Check back for updates.

### Fall/Winter 2025 Trends at a Glance:
Nomadic Spirit
Modern Academia
Maximalism for Minimalists

### Nomadic Spirit
Three seasons into Chemena Kamali’s tenure at Chloé, her vision has clearly struck a chord. Many fall/winter 2025 collections embraced a similar free-spirited energy, though often with a less overtly feminine touch. This season, build a bohemian-inspired look with flowing blouses, layered knits, and embroidered jackets paired with maxi skirts. Ground the look with flat shoes, chunky belts, and layered jewelry—especially long pendants, a trend that started this summer and continues into fall.

Shop the Trend:
Chloé – Lace-trimmed silk blouse ($1,950, Net-a-Porter)
Dries Van Noten – Printed midi skirt ($1,225, Nordstrom)
Bode – Embroidered satin jacket ($750, Net-a-Porter)
Zara – Flowy crinkle-effect dress ($119)

### Modern Academia
Scholarly dressing got a stylish update, reworking prep staples like corduroys, collared shirts, and blazers with inventive layering. Take cues from Miu Miu, where glasses became unexpected statement accessories, or Polo Ralph Lauren and Bally for expert layering ideas. For standout knitwear, look to Auralee and Khaite.

Miu Miu – Zipper sweatshirt ($3,550)
Polo Ralph Lauren – Oversized button-up shirt ($168, Nordstrom)
Bally – Embroidered polo shirt ($310, Net-a-Porter)

### Maximalism for Minimalists
Fringe and tassels added movement to outfits, giving minimalists a way to embrace bold details without straying too far from their aesthetic. Cream and black dominated, keeping the look refined. For craftsmanship and texture, try Ferragamo or By Malene Birger; for sculptural shapes, explore Alaïa, Fforme, and Róhe.
