What will be big this autumn winter season

Go right ahead says Gucci, who incidentally is going to be front and centre of our minds this autumn thanks to a certain film starring Lady Gaga. Bottega Veneta's corseted mini has got to be the ultimate way to do party season. We've done skinny, straight, flared and cropped. This autumn, say hello to your new favourite jeans: baggy. As demonstrated by Balenciaga, they might just be the comfiest and, thus, the coolest shape ever invented.

Nobody does knitwear quite like Gabriela Hearst. While hers are a serious investment, you'll pleased to know that every designer went big on cosy jumpers, sweater vests and even ponchos for this season.

The LBD is given a facelift every season, but Schiaparelli's - with its daringly simple silhouette enhanced with a family of gold brooches - is perfection for AW Layered under long coats at Miu Miu and Paco Rabanne, or with a grunge-tinged '90s take at Coach, these nightie-inspired dresses are made for the nightlife. The puffer coat is only gaining momentum. They're high-fashion down pieces designed to make an entrance—in neutral extra-long versions at Rick Owens or on a Victoriana gown at Thom Browne—you'll have your pick and stay extra warm all season long.

And the new silhouette turning all the heads comes by way of cropped jackets and tops. These elegant, midriff-baring looks are far from the mini tees of your youth. Sophisticated and chic on a fuchsia pantsuit at Chanel or a menswear look with a twist at Peter Do, and on an utterly ladylike two-piece set at Emilia Wickstead, these short takes are for posh girls only. A long-standing theory in fashion: High hemlines indicate economic prosperity, while long styles convey downturns.

In the precarious time that was , it was overwhelmingly the latter. Here to demonstrate this credo are the bevy of midi skirts that dominated the look books and virtual presentations for the fall season.

They are box-pleated at Christian Dior, knife-pleated at Erdem, A-lined at The Row, and flowy at Partow—but all reach midway between the knee and ankle. Pictured from top to bottom: 3. The optimal word to describe fashion in the past year was cozy. Designers are continuing down this path for fall , but not in the way you would initially think—read: no sweats here. The fabrics may indeed be plush and the sizes large, but the silhouettes are much more tapered than what is normally expected of winterwear.

Indeed, cozy never looked so good. The trusted suit has gotten a revamp. Traditionally, the style is composed of a blazer-and-trouser combo; blazer and skirts have also become commonplace.

For fall , designers introduced something new into the fold: coats. Instead of fitted jackets, Givenchy, Jason Wu, Proenza Schouler, and more showcased palazzo, paper-bag-waist, flared, or cropped trousers all with elongated toppers. Pictured from top to bottom: A Potts, 3. The future is bright, bold, and primed for attracting attention. Here to herald this message are fashion designers. Come fall, we are going to break free from gray and neutral tones, and bring some vibrancy into our lives.

They haven't left and never will. But what does change is the proportion. For fall , the trend de jour is short and super fitted. From tuxedo dresses at Fashion East to babydoll silhouettes at Christian Dior, the rule of thumb is to show legs for days, darling.
