Fall Fashion:
Y
ear after year and season after season, fashion
repeats itself. It is a vicious cycle of shopping for
the latest trends, getting sick of them, then they
come back in fashion, and then you buy them
again! Well get ready to expect the unexpected for fall 2018.
You will see new and exciting twists on old fall favorites,
as well as be blown away by fashion you’ve never seen
before. Patterns are going to be big this season, especially
plaid. Think a revamp of Cher Horowitz from Clueless in
a menswear inspired jacket, and that is Fall Fashion 2018.
Along with plaid there will be an abundance of herringbone
and houndstooth in menswear cuts. While the menswear is
oversized, the outerwear is even bigger. With bright and bold
colors and layering, this is defi nitely a cold weather trend.
We’ve got a while before we can wear a parka layered over a
jacket layered over a fl eece here in Florida!
Mixing textures is another fun trend we will be seeing a lot
of. You can pair everything from patchwork and crochet to
knits and shearlings to create the ultimate folksy fashion look.
This look is often coupled with a nature inspired color palette
of mustard, olive green, beige, maroon, camel, chocolate
and burnt orange. Another pattern that is popular for fall
in all aspects of your life from fashion to home is fl orals.
There are delicate fl oral patterns and bold bouquets in every
color imaginable. Florals are wonderful because they mix
so well with stripes and plaids, making
them extremely versatile for fall. A
unique way to play with fl orals is to
try embellished pieces, watercolor
prints, or one of a kind hand
painted wearable art.
