While we reported fall 2020’s runway trends last season, a lot has happened since then, and the fashion world is taking it day by day to figure out how to reinterpret these looks for events that are a little more casual. With a shortage of red carpets and a capacity limit on parties and gatherings, this fall, you’ll likely be experiencing far more two-person outdoor dining experiences and work-from-home Zoom calls than anything else. But that’s OK! Especially when our roster of trends includes “boss babe” — you can easily rock an oversize blazer with your biker shorts — and a jewel-tone color scheme, which just happens to look great taking the form of romantic house dresses.
In order to pull off all 11 of the trends making the rounds, some of which have actually come to fruition through #OOTDs on Instagram rather than runway designers, you only need a few essentials. Ahead, get to know which pieces to pick up to pull off even more popular looks, including, but not limited to: ’90s grunge, ’80s punk denim, vintage prep, colorful crochet sweaters, and leather outerwear. At the end of the day, this fall’s trends are perfect for date night and the office, even if the office is your kitchen table and date night is a socially distanced meal at the café around the corner.
