Top 10 Fall 2022 Fashion Trends

1. Leather

First for Fall 2022 fashion trends is all things leather. We are seeing a lot of leather pants, joggers, and skirts. However, anything goes. This is a great time to pull out your trusty leather jacket, layer some shorts for cooler weather, or explore a leather top or dress. You can go head to toe if you want! A good starting point is my look book of leather skirt outfit ideas.

2. Sporty Pieces

Second are pieces with a sporty or athletic vibe. We are seeing a ton of unusual pant choices being transformed into joggers. I have seen denim jeans, leather pants, and dress pants be styled as joggers! Besides that, stripes and more comfortable and flowing pieces fit the bill.

3. Knits

Third are knits. I know you must be thinking why of course, sweaters are always a Fall and Winter staple. This time around when we say knits, we mean chunky or heavy pieces. I have even seen the term “extreme” used. In my shopping trips I have been accosted by two piece knit sets that you can entirely see through, which includes the pants. That introduces a challenging layering opportunity.

4. 90s Minimalism

Fourth is 90s minimalism, and there is a lot to chew on with this one! This incorporates plenty of plaid, especially with a school girl look. Most commonly, Fall 2022 dress trends are plaid numbers layered over a short sleeve tee. We are also seeing a lot of two piece sets, especially knit vest and skirt combos with plaid or argyle designs. 90s minimalism also means retro stripe shirts. For more school girl inspiration, you can check out my look book of preppy school girl outfits.

5. Sequins

Fifth for Fall 2022 fashion trends is a bit unexpected with sequins! They played a major role on runways this year. A good way to start in on this trend is to invest in one piece that you can mix and match, such as a shirt or pants. If you end up digging the sequin vibes, then you can branch out. A little bit of sparkle should not be reserved for a party!

6. Faux Fur

Next is faux fur. The options are limitless when it comes to incorporating this trend. You can start out small with a scarf. A vest is always a chic layering option that will go with many outfits. Having one good faux fur coat in your closet will always make you look classy in a pinch.

7. Basics

The Fall 2022 fashion trend that I am crushing hard on is basics! Well, I have been all over it since Summer. Basics allow you to layer and mix and match every day with ease. The bonus is that you will always look put together! The most trendy basics right now are white tank tops, fitted blazers, and button down tops. Button downs are great for layering over your tees and tanks by leaving them open. I personally have been collecting crop tops that I can wear all year around simply by layering them with a button down.

8. Tall Boots

For Fall 2022 fashion trend shoes, look no further than super tall boots! Knee high and thigh highs are in order here. Just imagine how awesome they will look with your leather skirt, plaid dress, etc. A pair with a flat bottom can become your everyday staples, but do not pass up a glossy pair with a heel for your next night out.

9. Cowgirl

Another unexpected style for Fall 2022 fashion trends is anything that screams cowgirl, cowboy, or country. This can be as simple as a graphic tee talking about cowgirls, or it can be anything with a cow print. To kick things up a notch, cowboy boots or a hat are great options. A cowgirl theme also introduces neutral shades of brown, which are totally on trend.

10. Fall 2022 Fashion Color Trends

Last is a quick list of Fall 2022 fashion color trends. The idea of pops of neon has still not died from several previous seasons. Also, black and white are always go-to’s. Besides those notes, shades of brown or caramel are big this time around. Sticking with earth tones in Fall is always the key! We are also seeing off white, midnight blue, rust or red orange, olive, and sun yellow trending. “Sun” seems to be brighter than mustard, but more toned down than a pastel, neon, or any bright Summer hue.
