Top 5 New York Fashion Week Trends You Need to Try Now

Fashion Trends: With numerous fashion events taking place globally in February, staying updated on the latest runway trends can be challenging. However, by observing the street style of New York, we’ve managed to identify several emerging trends.

Some of these trends have become instant favorites among the crowds, while others haven’t been seen for years but have been revitalized with a contemporary twist. From downtown Soho to the Upper East Side, here are five major trends we observed during New York Fashion Week FW24.

1. Red Accessories

For those seeking to add a fresh touch to their winter outfits, consider incorporating red accessories. Whether it’s vibrant cherry red, rich crimson, or deep wine hues, there are numerous ways to integrate them into your everyday wardrobe. One popular trend this season is seen in stockings and tights, reminiscent of Blair Waldorf’s iconic style.

Pair them with matching red shoes, whether flats or heels, to create the illusion of elongated legs. Red shouldn’t be limited to just footwear – consider adding red handbags, headbands, or sunglasses to add a subtle yet striking element to your ensemble without appearing overly trendy. When working with this bold hue, stick to neutral and primary shades such as gray, cream, white, blue, mint green, or black for a cohesive look.

2. Mob Wife Aesthetic

You’ve probably noticed it trending all over TikTok, and we’re fully embracing the Mob Wife aesthetic. Inspired by iconic figures like Carmela Soprano from The Sopranos and Ginger from Casino, this style flaunts wealth and luxury, often acquired through dubious means.

It’s all about opulence and glamour, featuring oversized fur coats, form-fitting black dresses, knee-high boots, chunky gold jewelry adorned with religious or round pendants, large earrings, and vintage rectangular sunglasses. Animal prints are a must-have to complete the look. Embrace the boldness, and if you think your ensemble might be verging on tacky, you’re heading in the right direction.

3. Metallics

In a world where technology advances at an unprecedented pace, it’s no wonder that metallics are a major trend this season. Drawing from the Y2K aesthetic, this year sees a heightened focus on incorporating silver and gold garments beyond just accessories. Imagine silver faux leather pants, a gold-sprayed jacket, or a sleek metallic skirt, all of which can be paired with both casual and formal pieces to create sophisticated looks for any occasion.

For those who prefer subtler finishes, like monochrome or color-blocking outfits, consider adding a statement handbag or pair of boots for a touch of glamour that will turn heads and leave a lasting impression.

4. Hot Pink

If you’re still enamored with the Barbie-inspired aesthetic and all things pink, you’re in for a treat this season. Pink is still a prominent color, but it’s being reinvented in fresh and unexpected ways.

Rather than sticking to the traditional hot pink dress, why not explore textures, striking silhouettes, or unique cut-outs? Another popular trend is matching sets in shades of fuchsia, like a coordinated skirt and blazer, pants and vest, or a simple T-shirt and shorts combo.

These sets bring cohesion to your outfit, allowing you to experiment with quirky accessories and new color combinations. Despite the overwhelming presence of this hue, there are endless possibilities to infuse new energy into it – so don’t hesitate to play around and have fun with your style!

5. Fringing Trend

An effortless way to add some excitement to a basic outfit is by incorporating fringe. This straightforward yet impactful detail can elevate your look without straying too far from your comfort zone. For example, if you typically stick to an all-black wardrobe, try adding a leather-fringed skirt paired with knee boots, a turtleneck or sweater, and a long coat for chilly days.

Even on casual days when you opt for track pants, don’t hesitate to throw on a cardigan or jacket adorned with fringe to add movement and texture, instantly enhancing your outfit’s appeal.
