Burgundy’s Back

Last year it was all about the bright and bold cherry red, but this autumn the deeper shades of red are going to be the main attraction. Burgundy red is the colour of the season, especially when it comes to accessories.

There are so many ways you can incorporate burgundy into your outfits, but we’ve seen burgundy bags a lot during fashion week and it looks like that’s going to be the focus. The deep red tone is chic and elegant, it’s the classier version of the red trend so adding it in simple and subtle ways is the way forward. This is a trend that has already taken off, so it’s definitely going to be a statement this autumn.

Denim on Denim

Double denim is back. It has always been a popular fabric, particularly in the autumn/winter seasons; but recently it’s had more of a prominent appearance on the runways. This autumn, bold looks created with denim pieces are going to be a huge trend and we’ve already started to see more denim being worn.

Denim always has a place in our wardrobes no matter the time of the year, so doubling up on it is what makes this trend stand out. From denim two pieces, to denim dresses and accessories; the runways have shown adding denim to your outfit in any way is stylish. We’ve also seen darker shades of denim being worn more now, which is a lovely way of making it look classier and more chic. For example, a denim waistcoat and wide leg jean co-ord is such a beautiful outfit that is such a staple yet stylish look for autumn. If you want to add a fun trendy twist to your wardrobe, this is the trend for you.

Leopard Print

The leopard print trend started during the summer but it is going to take over the fashion scene for autumn. This print is fun and playful, yet chic. What makes the leopard print so versatile is the neutral tones. Whether you opt for cool toned leopard print or the warmer and bolder print its neutral colours make it easy to style.

With this trend there’s no particular way to wear it, and from the looks of it the more ways you can incorporate it into your outfits, the better. We’ve already seen it styled in many ways, from leopard print jeans to graphic t-shirts with leopard print details; and these are both great ways to style it for autumn too. This design is sure to brighten your autumn wardrobe and add a little summer fun to your wardrobe.

Coating Capes

A coat is a must have for any autumn season, and this year cape style coats are going to be the go-to to see you through the autumn months. The extreme collar, wrap around style is going to be the main feature for coats this year. This is one of the simpler trends this autumn, but the bigger the better. It’s a simple detail, yet it has such a chic and elegant look that it can take the most casual everyday outfit and elevate the entire look.

Coats are not only a staple as the weather gets colder, but they can be such a classy touch to an outfit. The cape style silhouette has a nice 70s feel to it which is becoming more popular in the fashion scene right now so this is the perfect way to hop on the trend. Not to mention, this trend will provide ultimate warmth which is perfect, especially going into the winter months.

Statement Scarf

If you plan on investing in any accessories this autumn, you need to add scarves to your wardrobe. Blanket-style, thick scarfs are going to be a huge trend this autumn; not only is it a practical item as the weather gets cooler, but it’s also a big statement piece to add to many outfits.

On runways, we’ve seen so many styles of scarfs, from black fringe-hem scarfs to classic autumnal plaid designs, even bright, bold colours and designs. If you like to wear more neutral tones during autumn, you can opt for a thick cream cable knit like the one seen on the Louis Vuitton runway, or if you like bold statements, you can go for a multi-coloured wrap-style scarf. There are many different options and ways to style them; they’re a must for the autumn season.

Fur and Feathers

This autumn is going to be all about being warm and cosy. Big statement pieces are the thing for autumn so fur and feather detailing fits right in with that theme. Fur coats have been a staple for autumn for the last few years, so it’s no surprise it’s trending once again, however, this year fur and feather volume will be on everything.

Whether it’s a coat, details on a dress, or even feather shoes, big fabric details are going to be the thing. The bigger the better this year, which is great if you like statement pieces to stand out. Not only that but the more fabric the warmer you’ll be, so it’s perfect as the year gets colder. If you’re not too keen on big statements but still want to incorporate them into your style, then smaller features like a hem on your dress or details on your accessories are the best way to do it to still get the dramatic effect of the fabric.

Khaki Green

When it comes to autumn, it’s the time of year when all the neutral, earthy tones are in full force, so adding a nice green tone is a nice subtle way of brightening the colour palette. Green was heavily featured on the runways, and although many different greens are going to be popular this autumn, khaki is going to be the colour of the season. Khaki green is a lovely colour, especially for this time of year, it’s classy but also so stylish no matter how it’s worn.

You could go all out and have a complete khaki look, or if you like the more subtle details, adding touches to your outfits can work, too. This is also perfect if you want the more neutral tones as it’s not hard to match with them, compared to the burgundy we’ll also see this season; it’s much easier to add to your daily wardrobe.

Cosy Cardigans

Even though cardigans are always part of autumn fashion, it’s never been a trendy piece, until now. Fashion brands were seen to add more cardigans to their fashion shows, creating a buzz around the layer for autumn. They are such a practical piece, it’s perfect for them to start trending. Not only is it a warm piece for the cold weather, but it’s also a great layer to add or even wear as a jacket.

There are so many stylish ways to wear a cardigan, and we’re going to see so many of them this autumn. From wearing a cropped cardigan with a mini skirt to wearing one oversized as a dress; cardigans are going to be a must have this year. So many brands have created their own twists on the classic cardigan which means you’ll have new styles to see you all the way through to the spring and summer seasons.

Summary

I hope this has given you a few ideas of what to include in your wardrobe this autumn. These are only a few fashion trends that will be popular this autumn, but these are the ones that we’ll definitely be seeing a lot of in the fashion scene.

What I like about these trends is that they’re all very versatile, and you can mix them together to create different looks without having loads of different pieces in your wardrobe.

In addition to that, a lot of these trends you can take into the winter and even the spring seasons, so if you decide to invest in these trends, you can get good use out of them and create fashionable looks for the next few seasons.
