Get ready for the new season with Vogue’s curated pre-fall 2024 wardrobe wish list. The collections have arrived, and it’s time to refresh your closet with the latest trends. This transitional period between summer and fall can be tricky for styling, but we’ve got you covered with the most sought-after pieces to elevate your look.
Chloé Leads the Boho Revival
No brand is hotter right now than Chloé, thanks to new creative director Chemana Kamali. Their billowy blouses, wide-leg denim, and lace-trimmed slip dresses are ushering in a bohemian fashion revival. These sultry slips are particularly captivating, with similar styles from Dôen and J.Crew offering a more accessible price point.
Saint Laurent and Khaite Deliver Epic Outerwear
For statement outerwear, look no further than Saint Laurent and Khaite. Their luxurious pieces are perfect for layering over everything from denim to statement skirts. And speaking of statement-making, knits from Stella McCartney and Róhe, along with leopard-print picks from Alaïa and Mango, are sure to turn heads.
Suede is Back in a Big Way
Suede is experiencing a resurgence this fall, with brands like Prada, Carven, Staud, and Altuzarra embracing its luxurious feel. Streamlined silhouettes and minimal embellishment make suede feel modern and sophisticated. Wear suede as a complete outfit or pair it with chic jeans or tailored trousers.
Preppy Plaid Shirts are a Must-Have
Apple picking season is just around the corner, and the plaid shirt is getting a fashion makeover. Bottega Veneta is known for their iconic plaid shirts, and this season’s red, blue, and beige trompe l’oeuil leather version is a must-have. Other notable plaid shirts come from Mango, Denimist, Toteme, and Nili Lotan.
Lacy Slips for a Sultry Look
Each season brings new dress trends, and this early fall is all about sultry lace slips. Chloé and Róhe are leading the charge with their captivating designs. Opt for a monochromatic look with Zara and J.Crew, or add a pop of color with styles from By Malene Birger and Dôen. Pair your lace slip with a roomy leather bomber jacket for the perfect balance of edgy and elegant.
New Knits with Unique Details
This season’s knits are anything but basic. Stella McCartney’s gold-buttoned cardigan is a standout piece, while Staud’s turtleneck scarf-top and Jacquemus’s unconventional polo are other interesting choices. Zimmermann’s striped metallic knit is ideal for evening wear, as is Róhe’s red-hot sleeveless sweater. JW Anderson’s draped tie-front sweater offers a cool and casual vibe.
The Capri Pant Makes a Comeback
The once controversial capri pant is back on the runway, seen in The Row’s pre-fall 2024 collection. Think of it as a stylish blend of your favorite black leggings and pleated trousers. Pair them with a slight heel for an elongated silhouette. Other great capri options can be found at Rag & Bone, Vince, The Frankie Shop, and Alo for a sportier look.
Leopard Print Reigns Supreme
Leopard print is officially the only print to wear this fall. Alaïa’s fall 2024 collection, featuring everything from minidresses to going-out tops in the feline pattern, is to blame. If you’re looking for a more modern take, check out iterations from Toteme and Ganni.
Sleek Leather Midiskirts for Fall
Leather midiskirts are a fall staple, and this season’s styles from Jil Sander to Khaite are worth noting. Other shin-grazing options from Reformation and H&M to Proenza Schouler White Label and Veronica Beard are also worthy of your attention.
Sweeping Trench Coats for a Dramatic Look
The classic khaki trench coat is a transitional style star, and this fall, it’s going to great lengths – literally. Maxi coats, from Khaite’s round-shouldered version to Chloé’s cape-adorned coat, are about to take up some serious real estate in your fall closets. Mango, Toteme, and Róhe offer other statement-making trench coat options.
Car Coats are Taking Center Stage
The barn jacket dominated last spring, but this season, car coats are taking center stage. Defined by their waxier finishes and cool corduroy collars, these coats are a must-have. Nili Lotan, Loewe, Miu Miu, and Mango have some stunning styles. Cos’s knee-length style with its oversized silhouette is the perfect topper for those chunky knits we’ll be layering in come fall.
Built-In-Belted Jeans for a Refined Look
Even your jeans deserve a fashion upgrade this fall. Look for built-in belted styles from Proenza Schouler to Citizens of Humanity. It’s all in the details!
Boho Blouses Embrace the Bohemian Trend
The billowy blouse is at the center of the bohemian fashion revival. Sea’s delicate-embroidered top pairs perfectly with a simple black trouser and chunky sandal. Chloé’s floral-lace cropped top is equally eye-catching, as is Ulla Johnson’s sleeveless crochet tank. Blouses from H&M and Dôen fit seamlessly into both urban and bohemian settings.
Sharp Denim Skirts are a Fashion-Forward Choice
Pre-fall’s denim skirts are sharper and more fashion-forward than ever before, as seen in designs from Victoria Beckham to Tory Burch. Haikure’s studded style is a prime example. Expect to see this trend dominate the street style scene at New York Fashion Week. Off-kilter buttoning, reversed pocket placements, and criss-cross waistbands offer unique takes on the classic denim skirt. Happy (almost!) fall, and happy shopping!
