With summer quickly coming to an end, many people are beginning to search for some new trendy pieces to add to their closet. Many of the trends that are starting to arrive at stores were inspired by the outfits displayed at New York Fashion Week Fall 2016, which was held in February 2016. Although the more predictable trends are shown every year, there are also always many trends that are completely unique from the years before.
Here are my top five favorite fashion trends for Fall 2016.
1. Muted Orange
Personally, I love this color because it tends to looks flattering on all skin tones while also looking rather sophisticated. My favorite way to incorporate this color into outfits is by wearing a jacket or coat in muted orange along with a neutral-colored top.
2. Reconstructed Denim
Along with the return of "mom jeans", reconstructed denim is becoming widely popular in the fashion industry. While there are many different types, the most popular are the ones that look like patches of different colored denim that are sewn randomly onto the jean. Also, people have been ironing colorful patches onto denim for a creative and fun flare.
3. Velvet
The velvet trend goes along with the return of 90's fashion. Velvet was an immensely popular grunge essential that has not stopped influencing the fashion industry since its birth. Grunge was a "trickle-up" trend, meaning it was started on the streets and then popular brands and designers picked it up and started incorporating the trend into their much more expensive collections.
4. Skinny Scarves
Skinny scarves add a sophisticated flare to any outfit, and it can also dress up a simple top. Pairing a skinny scarf with a blouse, jeans, and boots is a great combination if you want to look fashionable and modern. This fall, skinny scarves will be seen much more than the typical thick scarf. But, even though these are very trendy and cute, remember that they are not all that warm!
5. Liquid Metal/Metallic
Every fall and winter season, it seems that metallics reappear on the runway. Metallic-knit sweaters are a common pick amongst people because it allows the ability to rock the trend while not being too risky. Also, metallic shoes are a great way to incorporate this style into your closet if your style is a bit more simple.
