5 Fall/Winter 2023 Fashion Trends: Fashion Show Predictions
What will be trendy in the next autumn/winter 2023?
The answer comes loud and clear from the Fashion Weeks held during the first half of this year in the capitals that are the symbol par excellence of glamour and style.
As fashion experts, we have carefully analyzed the most exclusive runways of fashion houses such as Prada , Valentino and Gucci and we can tell you with certainty that there will be many novelties that will dominate the fashion ecosystem in the coming autumn months.
Among the undisputed protagonists stand out bright and bold colors, flared skirts, thigh-high boots and belts to be worn with audacity.
Here, in detail, are the 5 autumn/winter fashion trends that you absolutely must know.
Style it with color & pattern
Saturation levels at maximum for shades capable of illuminating even the greyness that envelops the autumn and winter months.
A big welcome to our closets to yellow and red , declined in more or less bright and energetically strong shades in clothing and accessories.
The yellow of Gucci shirts , the burgundy used in its entirety by Balmain and the bright red just hinted at in the creations by Alessandra Rich and Ganni, are confirmation of this.
Arm in arm with color – honoring the spring summer 2023 fashion trends – prints and patterns.
Word from Maison Valentino, which introduces black and white striped clothing items into its collections alongside the now well-known Toile Iconographe.
A trend also supported by the reptile print of Stella McCartney 's trousers and blouses and by Burberry's iconic pattern, inserted with minimal elegance into reversible jackets.
Knitwear
The Fall/Winter collections put the spotlight on knitwear – in technical jargon, knitwear – in a variety of patterns and prints.
Green light for traditionally soft cardigans by Gucci and Max Mara and sweaters by Alessandra Rich and Prada.
Leather (edgy) look vs feathers and furs
A timeless must-have, leather is reconfirmed as a trend for the autumn/winter 2023 collections.
The fashion houses offer it not only for accessories and boots , but also for trousers and jackets .
The stylists and creative directors of Dolce & Gabbana and Valentino, instead, enriched their catwalks with bright and floating marabou feathers , which created an effective detail on mini-dresses, shirts and coats.
Alongside the feathers, once again the protagonists, enveloping furs capable of making even the simplest outfit unique and sophisticated.
Whether real or synthetic, fur remains a must-have for all fashion lovers.
Bold shoulders
Fashion Week 2023 highlighted the propensity – shared in unison by the fashion houses – to opt for oversized volumes , with square and geometric shoulders.
The catwalks were filled with full skirts , proposed by Valentino Garavani, volumetric dresses and jackets with bold shoulders that left little room for tight-fitting looks.
The figure of the woman is distorted and praised by Gucci's sculptural dresses , never banal and always capable of surprising its audience with unconventional proposals.
Also worthy of note are the Max Mara Ponchi – available in grey or nude tones, made of wool and enriched with a metal jewel pin – and the now well-known jackets by Balmain.
Conclusions
As Fashion Week hinted, we are looking forward to an autumn and winter full of originality and extravagance , aiming to encourage and enhance all types of personalities .
From minimalists to more imaginative ones, from lovers of solid gray to supporters of color contrast … high fashion has a solution for everyone.
Refinement, elegance, quality and passion, these are the key words of current, cutting-edge collections, capable of revisiting tradition, looking at it as a starting point and inspiration.
