All Knit Everything
Why stick to just sweaters when it comes to knitwear? Try out skirts, dresses, coats, and more for a cozy look that will keep you warm without adding too many layers. What’s more, it’s a great way to add a bit of texture to a simpler styling.
‘60s Mod Minis
The shift-style mini looks are starting this winter and carrying straight through to spring 2022 (at very least!). Whether you’re looking for a skirt, dress, or coat, this look offers simple and clean lines with little fuss. These minis can be styled with everything from chunky lace-up boots to heeled Mary Janes.
Pleated Midi Skirts
Back from a few years ago, it’s time to re-invest in this tailored trend that still not only boasts romantic flair, but gorgeous movement as well. It can be worn effortlessly with everything from a crewneck knit and flats for brunch to a button-down and heels for the office.
Lilac
Though pink has reigned supreme for the past few years, pale purple — or lilac — is gaining steam for winter 2022. It’s a great transitional color, as it can be styled in everything from heavy coats to trousers, midi skirts to knitwear.
Daytime Sparkle
Who says that you have to wait until evening — or New Year’s Eve — to indulge in a sparkly moment? Designers this season are all about the daytime sequin, making a case for dresses, trenches, and tops with a bit of sparkle.
Ski Season
So many designers hit the runway for fall and winter this year with chunky fair isle knits, from Rag & Bone to Molly Goddard and everyone in between. It’s a great way to stay casual but add a little après ski moment into your everyday look.
Puffer Nation
In keeping with the last few seasons, puffers are bolder than ever this winter. Be it cropped or long, the newest puffers are chunky and oversized, giving off a casual cool look that’s sporty — and stylish.
Boudoir Inspiration
The boudoir inspiration of the ‘20s is back for winter, with slip dresses galore in luxe silks and chiffons, trimmed with lace and cascading ruffles. Whether you’re opting for jeans and a cami or a slip dress and tux blazer, it’s a trend you can wear day and night.
Menswear Coats
Coats have gone structured this season, with menswear-inspired suiting taking the outerwear world by storm. Be it gray wool, herringbone, check, or the like, it’s time to take note of good tailoring with your cold-weather layering this winter.
Cropped Jackets
The midriff-bearing trend has hit the jacket category, with designers from Chanel to Laquan Smith and showing cropped suiting jackets for the coming season. That said, if you’re not into showing skin, it’s a great silhouette to pair with a long shirts and jeans or over a mini, midi, or maxi dress.
