What are the latest styles observed at the Fashion Week for Fall/Winter 2024-2025? From corsets and see-through skirts to all-red ensembles and simulated fur jackets, let’s take a look back at 13 trends that will make up our upcoming winter fashion choices.
The fashionable shade for Fall/Winter 2024-2025: Red
The hue that truly stood out during the Fall/Winter 2024-2025 Fashion Week was the color red. This shade was prominently featured on the runways of Fall/Winter 2023-2024, making the red dress a popular trend this season. This iconic piece was seen in all its glory at Vetements, Ludovic de Saint Sernin, Ferragamo, Dilara Findikoglu, Victoria Beckham, Sportmax, and Versace, while taking on a more minimalist form at Balmain, Proenza Schouler, Courrèges, and Dries Van Noten. Along with dresses, the color red also made an appearance in the form of coats at Hermès, Bottega Veneta, and Mugler, as well as in complete looks at Gabriela Hearst, GCDS, and MSGM, and a tailored suit at Jil Sander.
The Lingerie Trend for Fall/Winter 2024-2025
The Balenciaga dress sits at the intersection of haute couture and upcycling, with its bras and T-shirts pushing the boundaries of the lingerie trend. Along with this bold creation from Demna, the upcoming winter season will see underwear making a statement, as seen at the Saint Laurent show where shirts were extended into garter belts. In addition, brands like Dolce & Gabbana, Ann Demeulemeester, Gucci, Nina Ricci, Mugler, Moschino, and Chloé featured alluring silk and lace ensembles, including camisoles, bloomers, and babydolls.
The sheer skirt trend for Fall/Winter 2024-2025
The upcoming sheer skirt has already become a popular trend for the Fall/Winter 2024-2025 Fashion Week after its debut in 2023. In New York, it was seen as a pencil skirt by Tory Burch and Ludovic de Saint Sernin, a lace design by Michael Kors, and a gothic-glam creation by Thom Browne. The trend continued in London at Simone Rocha with rhinestone-embroidered tulle and at Dilara Findikoglu with a sexy and professional look. In Paris, the sheer skirt was paired with revealing tops at Saint Laurent and also appeared in a cane leather version at Dior, chic silhouettes at Valentino, rock’n’roll pieces at Ann Demeulemeester, minimalist looks at Dries Van Noten, bohemian ensembles at Chloé, and edgy designs at Ester Manas, where it was paired with a short down jacket.
The trend for fur coats in the Fall/Winter season of 2024-2025
The trend of faux-fur and fur jackets has taken over the women’s fashion scene this winter, with major designer brands such as Louis Vuitton, Alaïa, Alexander McQueen, Tom Ford, Dolce & Gabbana, Courrèges, Pressiat, Balenciaga, Coperni, Valentino, Givenchy, Stella McCartney, Armani, and Burberry incorporating it into their collections. This mob wife style is expected to continue throughout the year. However, for those who prefer a more minimalist look, Dries Van Noten, Ester Manas, and Tod’s offer a toned-down version of this trend. It’s worth noting that the maxi fur coat has also made an appearance in the men’s collections.
The Trend of Trench Coats for Fall/Winter 2024-2025
By 2024, the trench coat will become an essential piece in your spring wardrobe. It has made a strong comeback for the Spring/Summer 2024 season and will continue to be a staple for the upcoming winter, especially at Burberry and Courrèges. Designers like Daniel Lee and Nicolas di Felice have offered a strict version, while others like Balmain, Tod ‘s, Thom Browne, Tom Ford, and Moschino have presented more classic and timeless black or beige options. The rebellious touch can be seen at Dior with bold tags, Balenciaga with a choppy structure, and Stella McCartney and Ludovic de Saint Sernin with brown leather. Other variations include red leather by Rokh and latex by Avellano and Courrèges. With its chic and mysterious appeal, the trench coat remains a reliable choice regardless of your style.
The trend of sequins for Fall/Winter 2024-2025
Similar to lingerie and see-through garments, sequins will be a major trend for the 2024 fashion season, starting from spring and continuing through the following winter. This trend was seen on the runways of top fashion houses such as Balenciaga, Dior, Gucci, Tom Ford, Dolce & Gabbana, Akris, and Michael Kors, where the focus was on ultra-glamorous long dresses for a quintessential red-carpet look. Valentino showcased a low-cut mini dress and a fringed coat adorned with sequins, while Coperni presented a galactic-inspired mini dress with extra-long sleeves. For a more laid-back style, Gucci featured an embroidered short coat and no pants, while Versace went for a micro mini skirt and cardigan combination. Dries Van Noten opted for a pencil skirt paired with a grey sweatshirt for a casual yet chic look.
The Trend of Micro Shorts for Fall/Winter 2024-2025
The trend of wearing no pants, which was started by Kendall Jenner wearing Bottega Veneta in 2022 and recently seen on Kristen Stewart during her new film’s promotion, is currently popular among celebrities. However, incorporating this trend in everyday life may not be easy, so it is better to opt for micro shorts instead. These shorts are equally sexy and can make the legs appear longer when paired with heels. At Coperni, micro shorts were paired with tailored jackets to create a futuristic bodysuit, while Acne Studios showcased a wetsuit-inspired uniform. Dior, Gucci, Stella McCartney, Chloé, Dolce & Gabbana, and Nina Ricci also incorporated micro shorts into their shows, but softened them with matching jackets. Lastly, GCDS and Hodakova presented edgy versions of micro shorts that were unanimously approved.
Fashion Week. The trend for thigh-high boots in Fall/Winter 2024-2025
In contrast to the discreet and elegant ballerina pumps, which are making a comeback this spring, the thigh-high boots are expected to be the most sought-after footwear for winter 2024. From fashion houses like Fendi, Gucci, Chanel, Burberry, Chloé, Off-White, Stella McCartney, and Coperni, these tight-fitting boots made of leather, faux leather, or suede reach high up the thigh and add a touch of femme fatale to even the most modest outfits.
The leopard trend for the Fall/Winter season of 2024-2025
For those who want to embrace the glamorous style of the mob wife trend, we suggest incorporating some leopard print into the previously mentioned coat options – perhaps a trench coat from Dior, a fur coat from Alaïa, Balenciaga, Diesel, Marni, or Rabanne. For those looking to make a statement, there are also bold dresses and jumpsuits available from Versace, Ester Manas, and Alexander McQueen. If you’re feeling less confident, a blouse from Zimmermann will do just fine.
The trend for cardigans in Fall/Winter 2024-2025
The fashion industry is known for its contradictory nature, and currently, we are witnessing the resurgence of the elegant and low-key cardigan. Prominent brands such as Chanel, Prada, and Gucci are showcasing a refined and feminine style, while Chloé and Etro are embracing a bohemian aesthetic. Meanwhile, Seán McGirr for Alexander McQueen is taking a bold approach with a fluo-techno ensemble. This trend of “grandmacore” is expected to continue.
The Trend of Jumpsuits for Fall/Winter 2024-2025
During the latest Fashion Week, jumpsuits were seen making a cautious comeback on the catwalks for Fall/Winter 2024-2025. They were first showcased at Puma in New York, with a techno-biker style, followed by Marine Serre who once again featured their signature moon print. At Acne Studios, the jumpsuit took on a wetsuit-inspired look, while at Germanier, it was adorned with embroidered pearls. Meanwhile, at Chloé, Nina Ricci, Tom Ford, and Weinsanto, lace was used to continue the lingerie trend. The jumpsuit remains a sexy garment that deserves more attention.
The Trend of Fur Details for Fall/Winter 2024-2025
Apart from jackets, other clothing items can also feature fur or faux fur in striking accents. Designers such as Miu Miu, Gabriela Hearst, Marni, and Ester Manas incorporate fur into their suits and dresses, while Louis Vuitton offers fur gloves and Acne Studios, Dsquared2, and Alexander McQueen showcase fur scarves and stoles. Even Coperni includes fur collars on their evening dresses, making it a ubiquitous trend in the fashion industry.
