Recently, Fashion Month concluded its journey in Paris, showcasing an array of trends throughout the four weeks of runway shows. From bubble hems and bloomers seen in New York to ultra-low necklines and embellished collars highlighted in London, the collections for spring/summer 2025 won’t be available for purchase until next year. However, these runways provided a treasure trove of styling inspiration that can be implemented immediately.
Designers such as Loewe and Nanushka embraced a relaxed aesthetic by leaving coats and blazers partially buttoned. Meanwhile, Miu Miu and Louis Vuitton took accessorizing to new heights with extravagant pieces. Other brands like Coperni and Ester Manas encouraged us to elevate our favorite graphic tees for upcoming outings. The focus this season was not just on what was worn but also on the unique ways it was styled—making this season’s runways true masterclasses in fashion.
If you’re eager to discover the most effective styling techniques from Fashion Month, continue reading for innovative outfit combinations and accessory tips that will enhance your autumn wardrobe.
Styling Tip: Effortlessly Half-Buttoned Layers
This season’s standout styling trick is the half-buttoned jacket—a nonchalant approach embraced by brands like Tibi, Etro, Nanushka, and Loewe. These designers left blazers slightly ajar to reveal just enough skin while maintaining elegance. Kallmeyer and Erdem opted for long jackets that showcased their underlying outfits; Tolu Coker and Mugler chose unzipped jackets instead. This fall, consider leaving one or two buttons undone—what lies beneath is key to completing your look.
Styling Tip: Layering Belts for Impact
Why settle for one belt when you can sport two? Designers including Miu Miu, Schiaparelli, Chopova Lowena, and Brandon Maxwell all showcased this trend during Fashion Month by doubling up on belts—encouraging mismatched styles as well! Experiment with combining chain belts with classic leather options or wearing two bold statement pieces together. Look out for garments featuring built-in double belts like Ganni’s trench coats from their SS25 collection.
Styling Tip: Elevating Graphic Tees
While nothing quite compares to a Mickey Mouse tee at Disneyland (Coperni certainly set the bar high), many SS25 shows inspired us to dig into our graphic tee collections once more! On a couture note, Loewe presented feather-adorned tees featuring artwork from Van Gogh and Manet down its runway; Vaquera layered vintage-style printed tees under strappy dresses or over flowing maxi skirts. For those looking to make a statement similar to Ester Manas’ “elephant in the room” top paired with sheer skirts addressing body diversity issues at fashion week—this is your moment!
