Red
Sweater vests have become one of this year’s key trends. Here, we pair a cozy button-up iteration from GANNI with Kirin’s leather trousers for contrasting textures, creating a more dynamic look. The bold red outfit is complete with a pair of matching sandals from Christopher Kane and cat-eye shades from CELINE. A simple white A.P.C. T-shirt is layered beneath the vest for balance.
Pink
Terry’s pastel pink cotton playsuit is perfect for creating a photo-ready outfit. Round off the look with a pair of matching socks from Prada and a cozy beanie by Acne Studios. For some extra oomph, put on a striking pair of sneakers like Balenciaga’s Track.2 design.
Orange
Who says sweatpants are exclusively for lazy, laid-back looks? Elevate your orange Vivienne Westwood Anglomania sweatpants with this neon bodysuit from Mowalola, a statement design that sports cut-out details on the sides and the sleeves. Converse’s fire motif Chuck 70 low kicks and JW Anderson’s micro-sized Cap bag complete the head-turning look.
Yellow
Lightweight knit pieces and loose-fitted trousers are perfect for transitional weather. For a tonal yellow getup, we pair Issey Miyake’s roll neck top with Joseph’s wide-leg pants. A small cross-body bag from Jil Sander and a matching pair of Nike Blazer Mids round off the ensemble.
Green/Lime
Green may seem like a tricky color to wear, but with the right fabrics and shades, you will be able to achieve a harmonized tonal look. Opt for STAUD’s maxi skirt with large pocket details as a focal piece. To balance out the overall feel, pair the skirt with a softer item like Erdem’s mohair cardigan in light lime. A “Patchwork” iteration of Converse’s Chuck 70 sneakers and Marni’s fuzzy bucket bag add a bit of interest to the look.
Blue/Cyan
A satin midi skirt by Samsøe & Samsøe serves as the base of this all-blue outfit. A more vibrant hue is splashed onto Vetements’ distressed wool sweater and Birkenstock’s Arizona slides. Finally, Mansur Gavriel’s mini bucket bag ties everything together.
Purple
Mix and match different shades of purple to reach peak ’90s fashion nostalgia. Here, we pair Eckhaus Latta’s acid-wash flared jeans with a scrunched-up lilac tee by Paco Rabanne, along with an Off-White™ logo beanie and Acne Studios scarf.
Brown
You can’t go wrong with a tone-on-tone brown outfit for fall. Style Nanushka’s striped faux leather midi skirt with a cozy alpaca blend sweater from Totême and cowboy-style boots by Isabel Marant. Don’t forget to accessorize with a statement purse, like JW Anderson’s Punch bag.
White
White-on-white is suitable for almost any season of the year. A graphic tee like Mowalola’s Homecoming T-shirt looks great with straight-leg pants, like these ivory ones from A.P.C. Elevate the look with a single-breasted jacket by Khaite. To keep things on the casual side, reach for some retro-inspired sunglasses like Le Specs’ acetate frames, as well as a pair of classic Converse Chuck 70s.
Black
Probably the most commonly worn combination on this list, all-black looks are loved for their chicness and versatility. GANNI’s puff-sleeved buttoned midi dress arrives with a bold yet gentle silhouette, while Eytys’ combat boots toughens up the outfit with its platform soles. To accessorize, opt for gold-tone jewelry like Paco Rabanne’s necklace to match with JW Anderson’s mini tote bag.
