For better or worse, trends have a way of making their way back around. Some, we’re happy to see again; others, not so much. From strappy Mary Janes and cargo pants to knee-high boots, these five fall and winter 2023 fashion trends will look familiar. We’ve decided to embrace them. Will you?
Long denim skirts
Denim skirts are showing up everywhere in a wide variety of lengths, washes, and rises. For cooler weather, opt for midi and maxi styles, dressing them down with fashion sneakers and a favorite tee, or dressing them up with a pair of sleek heels and a fitted top. This month, you can easily fight both high-waisted and slow-slung designs, making it easy to find an option that suits your body type and preferred silhouette!
Tall boots
Booties took top billing for a while, and they’re very much still in fashion, but tall boots are back on the scene in a big way. Understated Western styles and knee-high boots with flat or sturdy block heels are great for pairing with skirts and dresses or layered over slim-fitting pants.
Sweater sets (reimagined)
Since COVID, we’ve seen an uptick in the availability of stylish matching loungewear sets, and this time last year, we saw the return of the cardigan sweater set. This year, retailers are leaning further into elevated sets that are not only attractive but comfortable, and they’re great for mixing and matching. We’re highlighting sweater sets here in the spirit of fall, but you should also keep an eye out for sets in dressier materials — think silky skirts and tops and sophisticated suit separates!
Cargo pockets
Talk of the return of cargo pants began early this year, and with fall and winter fashion hitting the racks, the proof is in the pudding. Whether you’re looking for relaxed streetwear options or a new take on trousers for dressier occasions, a cargo style can lend a little interest to your look.
Mary Janes
Feminine Mary Janes are back in the mix, available in a fun variety of fabrics and heel heights! Last week, we paid homage to flats for fall and winter, so you saw some great Mary Janes selections there. Today, we’re celebrating a more comprehensive range of options. It’s incredibly easy to find Mary Janes in versatile neutrals at the moment, but if you prefer a pop of color or patterns, you’ll be in heaven.
