Fall/Winter Fashion Trends 2025: Key Styles to Know

The 2025 fashion predictions may have wrapped up a while ago, but the latest fashion trends 2025 we spotted on the runways are still fresh in our minds. Each brand had its own vibe for this season, but there were definitely some common themes tying the collections together. A few designers took inspiration from the past, indulging in the girl's preppy aesthetic and power suits for women that were all the rage in the 80s. Some also got creative with fur, cutting and dyeing it to look like mink. Midi skirts and two-piece skirt sets made a comeback, reminding us of the early 2000s, and many brands added a modern twist to the classic shrug. Plus, the autumn color palette this year is all about those warm browns and light greens. 

So, check out our top 9 autumn-winter 2025 fashion trends that you'll be seeing everywhere before the leaves even start to fall.

Midi Skirt

Say goodbye to those super short skirts, at least for a while, because the go-to skirt according to fall-winter 2025 fashion trends is the flouncy midi. Stylish and super versatile, fall Midi Skirts, especially with fringes or a nice A-line shape, are classy. Lots of top brands are all about the midi look this fall, pairing them with oversized knits, boxy blazers, and knee-high boots.

Check out the casual midi skirts from Tiger of Sweden for the upcoming season, like the white Flared midi skirt and the brown Suede midi skirt. They hit the knee, are made from high-quality materials, and have trendy cuts and colors—what more do you need for an awesome skirt outfit?

Belts

It came in all sorts of shapes and sizes, but one thing's certain—designer belts are the must-have accessory of the AW25 season. From oversized styles to thin belts and even double or triple belting, these accessories stole the spotlight on the catwalk, making it super easy to freshen up your wardrobe. Just throw one over a cozy knit or a tailored coat to add some shape to your winter outfits—it's the simplest way to look put-together while staying comfy.

While bold statement belts are definitely in, if you prefer a more minimalist vibe, check out our selection of the best belts for women.

Shades of Brown

If you're in the mood for soft autumn colors and a trendy winter color palette but think black feels a bit too heavy and camel is kind of a safe bet, brown is your answer. Everyone's been buzzing about brown making a comeback over the last few seasons, and it's clearly not going anywhere anytime soon. From evening wear to outerwear, shirts to skirts, earthy brown colors of autumn were everywhere on the AW25 runways, and they're definitely the top neutral among the fashion color trends 2025.

It could be a knit, like the Crewneck cashmere sweater from Lisa Yang in wooden brown. Or—a pair of pants such as the High-rise straight trousers from House of Dagmar in chocolate brown. And you can't go wrong with a fashionable jacket; our top choice is the Oversize wool shirt jacket in dark brown.

Lace

Another cool and feminine trend that hit the runways this season is lace styles, showing up in both eye-catching colors and more classic shades. Prominent brands are rocking sleek and sexy looks with power-shouldered lace co-ords in blues, greens, yellows, and burgundy.

For everyday wear, you don't have to go for fancy lace gown styles; something simpler, like a lace long sleeve top, works great. The Lace knit top from House of Dagmar, for instance, is perfect for dressing up for a night out or creating an elegant outfit for a special event.

Maxi Coat

Instead of going for baggy styles, Fall coats are leaning towards longer, more fitted looks that give off a sleek vibe. There's just something about a maxi coat that reaches the ankle that makes you feel like you've got it all figured out. On the runways, we saw structured pieces in cashmere, wool, and puffer styles with flowing hems in focus. The main trend is a more tailored shape that still keeps that comfy oversized feel.

House of Dagmar offers trendy maxi coat cuts for this season. The Oversize double coat, if you are up for the relaxed silhouette. The Alpaca blend coat, if you want to combine maxi length with another trend—statement shoulders. The Belted relaxed coat, if you prefer sculpted feminine shapes.

Modern Academia

When you think of a cute preppy outfit, you might picture an easygoing college student, but this season's top fashion collections are actually inspired by grad students. We're talking sweater vests, striped shirts, wool slacks, turtlenecks, and leather brogues—perfect for those late-night study sessions, grading papers, or grabbing coffee at odd hours. To get that academic look, mix classic preppy outfits for school—thin cardigans and relaxed blazers with long pleated skirts and tassel loafers.

The Asymmetric shirt from House of Dagmar is a no-brainer for nailing that Modern Academia vibe. If you want something more interesting, the Poloneck longsleeve top from Erika Cavallini works great with an A-line skirt and loafers. And the Button-detail leather skirt from House of Dagmar is like your secret weapon; it gives off classy pencil skirt charm while adding that bold leather edge.

Power Suit

Money doesn't stop, and neither does the '80s power suit. So, what is a power suit for women these days? It's sharper, sexier, and all about those bold shoulders. You'll find it in every color from classic black to vibrant purple, perfect for making moves in any setting. The '80s power suit for women is something you would be grateful to have in your wardrobe.

The black suit from Erika Cavallini, featuring the Tie-front wool blazer and the Straight-leg wool trousers, stole our hearts with its sculptural belted shape and statement shoulders. Another suit that we are in love with this season is the beige set from Beige Brown, where the Wide-leg suit trousers and the Oversize suit blazer combine in a relaxed, unstructured silhouette. However, if you are not ready to wear a full suit, you can always pick one of the Suit Blazers to complete your look with a trendy piece.

Skirt Sets

Skirt sets are definitely not a new trend, but for fall 2025, they're showing up in really fun colors, unique shapes, and unusual fabrics. We've got everything from cozy sweater skirt sets and matching skirt and top sets made of faux leather and suede to sheer long skirt and blouse pairs, plus cute mini skirt sets in tweed.

For this fall-winter season, grab at least one knitted skirt set. If you're into fine knits, check out the one from Lisa Yang, it comes with a Rollneck cashmere sweater and a Cashmere midi skirt. If you like a chunkier feel, the Roundneck bouclé sweater paired with the Knitted bouclé skirt from Erika Cavallini is perfect for you.

Fur Trims

After a wave of flashy faux fur yeti coats, this season's take on fur—whether real or faux—is a lot more low-key. We're talking about fur trims popping up on everything from pleated skirts and statement coats to cocktail dresses. Trims also appear in accessories and shoes, making it that much easier to get in on the action. Think of it as a modern twist on a 1920s vibe, mixed with fresh materials and prints—a little touch of luxury you deserve. 

If you want to dip your toes into this trend, a fur-trim jacket is your best bet, and there are some great options from Moose Knuckles, like their Gold-detail belted jacket and Shearling puffer jacket. If you're looking for something a bit more robust, like a fur-trim coat, check out their Fur-trim down parka.
