What to wear in the fall: 10 new wardrobe hits

The end of summer has come, which means it's time to seriously think about what to wear this fall. We chose 10 items of clothing and footwear that we all will inevitably buy in the next three months. Just because these or similar models will be in every store and on every mannequin.

Fitted jacket with flared bottom

Simple single-breasted and double-breasted jackets of traditional-strict gray, black and brown colors or a tartan cage might seem boring and bored if it were not for the futuristic silhouette that Demän Gvasalia in her first collection for Balenciaga achieved with a narrow waist and raised thighs. These jackets of unusual cut are a new interpretation of timeless classics, a reference to the legendary costumes of Cristobal Balenciaga and a potential super hit of the autumn season. In combination, for example, with straight cropped jeans, mules or sneakers, they will be an excellent option for the street, in combination with a pencil skirt and high boots for the office. In any case, they make the image concise and elegant.

Every time you put on such a jacket, remember: all other things should be as simple as possible if you do not want to look too theatrical and eccentric. Silhouette-like jackets, but even more futuristic, decorated with lightning, made by Nicolas Ghesquières for Louis Vuitton. Made of silk, they differ from the Balenciagovsky narrower waist, which is why they resemble a corset, and a rigid "stable" bottom. Wearing such better with skinny jeans and ankle boots on a rough sole. We hope that in the near future we will see variations on the theme of such jackets in mass-market-brand stores.

Satin Dresses

Sparkling pale pink, scarlet, green-yellow satin dresses, as in the collections of Gucci, Blumarine, Alberta Ferretti, will be an excellent option for a cocktail party, especially in combination with a jacket or coat with a pronounced coarse texture - for contrast.

Leopard Print Items

Designers in women's collections return to the leopard print systematically, either because of a special love for these big beautiful cats, or because it is always spectacular and bright. However, one does not exclude the other. The attitude to the leopard print in fashion has changed over time: if earlier it was associated directly with Versace, Dolce & Gabbana and Roberto Cavalli, that is, brands that broadcast template feminine beauty and sexuality, then today we can find it, for example, in the Prada and Acne collections Studios.

In the new season, the designers showed a different “leopard”: in some, it is realistic (Bottega Veneta, Prada, J.Crew), in others - in unexpected color combinations, for example, in the spirit of pop art (Acne Studios). Despite the fact that clothing with a leopard print has long ceased to be a marker of vulgarity, there are rules that are still worth adhering to. First of all, we must remember that the "leopard" alone attracts a lot of attention, so other things, hair and makeup should be simple and even austere. Well, if we are talking about a fashionable party, then all the rules are canceled.

Wide belt

The wide belt is an absolutely universal accessory in the sense that you can wear it with everything that you can, for example, with outerwear. It helps create the X-Silhouette and makes even the simplest thing look new. You can fantasize about the various combinations here endlessly. For example, an equally beautifully wide belt will look with a tight knit dress, as in the A Détacher collection, with an elongated shirt, body and overalls. It will also become an indispensable accessory for lovers of layering, since again it can be worn over a jacket or coat. Focus on the collections of Saint Laurent and Maison Margiela.

Leather coats

If you do not have a leather coat, then by the new autumn season they will probably have to get one. A leather coat is just one of those rare things that take their place in the basic wardrobe for a long time and do not lose their relevance - so it is very worth investing in a purchase. You can find such a coat in the autumn collections: Acne Studios has voluminous versions of soft, muted shades, Versace and Moschino have a biker style, and Max Mara has shiny patent leather. But especially beautiful leather coats - minimalist greenish wet, metallic and white shades - showed Jil Sander.

Shallow down jackets

Light quilted down jacket again from the category of mandatory purchases with the onset of autumn: firstly, because it is practical in our harsh unpredictable climate, and secondly, it’s just beautiful. Designers offer many options - for example, classic, like those of Prada, more sporty, like those of a whole pool of brands like Acne Studios, Balenciaga, Yeezy. We advise you to take a closer look at how cleverly at Balenciaga and Acne Studios shows on models are puffs: the undone top opens shoulders and creates a kind of collar.

Things with infantile applications

The recently formed trend for infantilism in clothes managed to catch the fancy of many designers and showed that not only children's clothes can be fun and cute. In the new season, designers showed a lot of things with funny and touching appliqués, looking at which thing you want to definitely buy. Applications in the form of mice, kissing faces, men in uniforms and cocked caps - this list goes on. Differing in special elegance, such clothes are suitable primarily for parties, but in everyday life it will also be used. In the latter case, the main thing - do not overdo it.

Tight overalls

Overalls, tight-fitting body - a fashion hit this fall. For example, Nicolas Ghesquière in a collection for Louis Vuitton showed a jumpsuit structured with different color inserts, resembling a superheroine costume, Kanye West in the collection for Yeezy - several monochrome overalls similar to wetsuits or thermal underwear, Edie Slimane in the collection for Saint Laurent - hot pink, all overalls, covered with sequins, referring us to the 70's disco. If you want to be the center of attention, such a jumpsuit is what you need. To emphasize the lines of the body, combine tight overalls with deliberately huge things.

Huge sweater

The sweater is many sizes larger, and "the bigger the better," as the designers Les Copains, Emilio Pucci, Alexander Wang say, claim to be the most popular hit of the fall season. If at this moment your thoughts about the aesthetics and comfort of such a sweater have crept in, drive them away. With a huge sweater, you can create beautiful complex multi-layered images, it can be worn as a loose warm dress and, if desired, supplemented with a wide belt - another hit of the season. If you want to buy a huge sweater, pay special attention to the men's collection Raf Simons.

Unusual boots and boots

High boots are a must-have for conversations in anticipation of the onset of cold weather. So, Demna Gavsalia offers to wear such as girls and guys - boots have long become the hallmark of Vetements. And in the very first collection of Gvasalia for Balenciaga, we again saw high boots complete with dresses below the knee — the designer's favorite combination. No less advantageous will look boots, leg-fitting, like stockings (such, by the way, is in Zara), and oversized coat. The variety of colors, decor and heel shape is amazing, but high-heeled boots made of shiny lacquered and metallic leather, decorated with all sorts of patterns, embroidery and appliqués, as in the collections of Louis Vuitton, Maison Margiela, MSGM, Sonia Rykiel, Balenciaga, Vetements.
