Amid a week of near-arctic temperatures in the city that never sleeps, New York Fashion Week brought vibrance and energy that kicked off Fashion Month with a bang. Strong Fall 2025 trends have already begun to emerge that carry with them a maximalist spirit, be it in silhouette, color, or detail.
From oversized wrap coats to beautifully embellished detailing, monochromatic looks in bright cherry red and fringe details that possess alluring movement as you walk, New York Fashion Week’s Fall 2025 shows were a true celebration of creativity and a return to a whimsical spirit we are all so desperately seeking. And the trend everyone will be talking about marks a return to nostalgic fashion aesthetics: dresses layered over pants for a cool 2000s vibe.
Though American designers went full-force with the presentation of oversized shapes, light-catching crystals, and more, it was all juxtaposed with more practical roots. Be it a wool skirt suit from Michael Kors with extensive embellished detailing, fringe bags from Altuzarra that are the ultimate in throw-on-and-go, or Altuzarra wrap coats that offer a true effortless sophistication, the stylistic balance was palpable.
Ahead, check out eight fall 2025 trends that we can’t get enough of. And we’ve pulled together some of our favorite pieces of the moment so you can start shopping these looks right now.
