FOR A MONTH we followed the shows at fashion weeks in New York, London, Milan and Paris. It's time to take stock. This article contains forty-one fall / winter 2019 trends that we will adapt to our wardrobe throughout this year.

Overhead collars
In the next season, designers propose adding a new accessory to the wardrobe - false collars. Including we are talking about modern counterparts of the cutter, only less lush and complex
More details
Tie-dye
Tie-dye garments hit the runways a couple of seasons ago. Designers loved the idea of custom clothing, although - let's be honest - such "unique" models have long been ubiquitous
More details
Slip dresses
Although slip dresses get more sophisticated every season, they still look great with mules and oversized cardigans.
More details
Black and white text
A new version of the classic combination of black and white colors: reminds of the popular strip, but looks much more interesting
More details
Torn things
Clothes with decorative holes, slits and a scorched edge appear on the catwalks often, but this Fashion Week deliberately unkempt details were literally everywhere.
More details
Knitted total bows
Designers suggest that next fall pay attention to plain combinations of long skirts, sweaters and even shorts, complementing them with shawls, gloves and leggings
More details
Things on one shoulder
This trend seems to have moved into the category of timeless classics like plaid and stripe. It doesn't matter which era the designers turned to - dresses and blouses with one shoulder can be found in every second collection
More details
Asymmetric jacket
If you are tired of classic jackets and blazers, choose a model with an asymmetric cut or sewn from different materials - these were shown by Jonathan Simkhai, Calvin Luo and Proenza Schouler.
More details
Grunge
The general nostalgia for the 90s continues, and designers are again turning to grunge. A harbinger of the return of this style was the reissued collection of Marc Jacobs for Perry Ellis, which the designer created in 1992.
More details
Huge pockets
Utility has been trying to capture the world's catwalks for several seasons in a row. Huge pockets, detachable parts, secret compartments - all this should be in comfortable and versatile clothes, in which it is not scary to go for a walk or in the mountains
More details
Strass and chains in your hair
Jewelry and large hairpins with rhinestones - a tribute to the eighties or zero - appeared last season. The past New York Fashion Week confirms: soon they will be absolutely everywhere. The most impressive display with an abundance of rhinestones came from Area
More details
Sweaters in diamonds
Every season, a new sweater model takes the catwalks. Variants with Scandinavian patterns, pigtails and large knits have already been repeated many times, but now it's the turn of sweaters with rhombuses. Interestingly, the classic argyle can be found only in the Victoria Beckham collection.
More details
Puff sleeves
Neo-romanticism has taken a firm place in the collections of many designers - this time, the key detail was voluminous puff sleeves, reminiscent of the outfits of aristocrats of the first half of the 19th century
More details
Dress with trousers
Designers have been trying for a long time to fit this combination into our wardrobes, but it’s impossible to say that it’s boring: thanks to the many styles, you can endlessly come up with new combinations.
More details
Fringe
Basic plain clothes will look more interesting if you decorate them with fringe. Moreover, on jerseys, the decor looks especially harmonious, naturally continuing the collar, sleeves or print.
More details
Huge brooches
If you once acquired such an accessory, then this is a great reason to revive it.Designers have placed a wide variety of brooches on sweaters, coats, oversized suits and minimalist dresses
More details
Padded and quilted things
With the onset of cold weather, I want to immediately try on everything blown and quilted. Jackets that look more like jackets, dresses and skirts that look like cozy bedspreads, vests, scarves - there were plenty to choose from during London Week
More details
Fancy hats
Some of the most memorable were JW Anderson's leather jockey caps, which did not completely cover the models' heads. Asai showed caps reminiscent of medieval headdresses
More details
Corset
We do not get tired of repeating that fashion is cyclical, and therefore the return of corsets to the catwalks is not at all surprising. Probably one of the most popular items at London Fashion Week.
More details
Different textures in one thing
Clothes that combine several materials always stand out in the collection due to the asymmetry and difference in textures. If you want something unusual, but at the same time wearable, then there is no better option.
More details
Extra long pants
Not the most practical thing, especially for those who travel a lot on foot. And yet designers continue from season to season to create very long trousers, both flared and straight cut, which almost completely hide the shoes.
More details
Long vests
Designers are returning a long vest to the catwalks again - a thing that is not the most practical, but it immediately makes the image much more interesting. For example, Jil Sander presented a long vest coat that completes the outfit with a white shirt and flared trousers.
More details
White total bows
The designers were finally tired of dividing colors by seasons, so white total looks took over Milan catwalks at the fall-winter shows. Light sets (moderately solemn, but not too much) were shown by almost every first brand
More details
Long straps
Another accessory familiar from several seasons. As before, designers suggest wearing such belts not only on jeans and trousers, but also with coats, jackets and even sweaters. Most brands showed accessories of the same color at Milan Fashion Week
More details
Massive chains
Massive chains, which brands offer to be worn as an accessory not only on the neck, but also on the belt, also returned to fashion. It is not necessary to limit yourself to grunge or gothic like Marni
More details
Bulky down jackets
Oversized down jackets rarely disappear from fashionable radars; nothing is more convenient than a blown coat in the cold season. In the next season, designers decided to pay attention to voluminous blanket jackets.
More details
Gray suits
Gray business suits were responsible for the office style at Milan Fashion Week, which showed almost everything - from Alberta Ferretti, Max Mara and Salvatore Ferragamo to Gucci, Marni, Versace and many others.
More details
Pleated everything
Pleated skirts appear on the catwalks so often that it makes no sense to single them out as a separate trend. This time, the designers decided to make everything pleated.
More details
Creamy and pale green
For the next season, designers experimented a lot with pastel shades. My favorite turned out to be cream: Roberto Cavalli and Agnona showed knitwear sets, Max Mara - total looks from fur coats, turtlenecks, trousers and jackets
More details
Treads-pipes
This time, the designers fell in love with the straight model with a free bootleg. Roberto Cavalli and Blumarine, for example, paired these with short dresses. Max Mara showed over the knee boots with a beige total bow, which consisted of a wool skirt, sweater and coat
More details
Huge boots
Designers have long fallen in love with rough shoes, so every fashion week comes up with new options. The popularity of footwear similar to the iconic Buffalo London models will peak in the fall-winter season.
More details
Large earrings
Mono earrings made a splash a few years ago. But if then the proposal to wear only one piece of jewelry looked fresh, today this technique has become a habit. This time, a huge number of brands remembered about mono-earrings
More details
T-shirts over clothes
For a couple of seasons in a row, designers showed knitted vests with ornaments, but the trend did not take root. Now the turn has come for tight T-shirts - knitted or ribbed - which can always be found in the mass market, regardless of the catwalk trends.
More details
Chess cage
Designers are experimenting with new types of cells. At Paris Fashion Week, tartan and vichy were not as popular as a year ago, but the checkerboard pattern took over the catwalks. Loewe put the cage on the coat using squares of different materials
More details
A riot of prints
Fashion Weeks have long called for combining everything with everything, without limiting your imagination. From season to season, designers offer combinations of a wide variety of prints: flowers with a leopard, stripes with abstraction, zebra with cucumbers - and much more.
More details
Flowers
Floral print is one of the pillars of modern fashion. For the next autumn and winter, designers offer a classic approach in a new way: the images of flowers were again placed on dresses, down jackets, knitted sweaters, jackets and blouses
More details
Purple
If white, cream and pale green reigned at Milan Fashion Week, then in Paris, on the contrary, they chose a bright option. Different shades of purple can be seen in the collections of Dries Van Noten, Ann Demeulemeester, Paco Rabanne, Balmain, Lanvin and many others.
More details
Gothic
Subculture elements are back. In New York, grunge reigned on the catwalks, but in Paris laconic Gothic took the lead. The Alexander McQueen collection features fitted suits paired with chunky boots and patent chokers
More details
Long capes
This time, the designers offered not just capes, but elongated models in the manner of a coat. Balmain, Chanel, Elie Saab and Off-White showed spectacular floor-length capes, like the mantles of fairy heroes
More details
Goose foot
The return of the crow's feet to the catwalks was not long in coming. A print in classic black and white was seen on suits and coats from Chanel, Balenciaga and Alexander McQueen.
More details
Bright blue denim
Jeans never go out of style - except that its variants compete for the first place from season to season. This time, the designers decided to pay attention to the material in rich blue.
