Fall Trends from the Runway - Fall RTW 2014

New York Fashion Week started last Wednesday. As we roll into fall, the designers are showing spring fashions. The fashion industry must be a season ahead in order to produce and stock the items you'll be purchasing in the spring. The must have items this fall were actually showcased by the designers at the shows this past February. My favorite part of fall and winter are the amazing coats and jackets but this year I'm also loving the new cuts in pants.


Sleeveless Blazer - 3.1 Phillip Lim

Cape Jacket - Christian Siriano

Oversized Coat (love the Mohair) - Christian Siriano

Colored Fur (Faux Fur only for me) - DKNY

Flared Coat - Victoria Beckham

Oversized Blazer - Michael Kors

Chunky Sweaters and Wide Leg Pants - Michael Kors

Culottes - Tibi

Of course these items are styled for the runway. Most of us would wear them differently in our daily lives. The perfect example is the chunky sweater and wide leg pants at Michael Kors. I love both of them but I wouldn't wear them together. Oversized items on top and bottom would make me look frumpy, not chic. I'd balance each one by wearing it with a fitted item. The chunky sweater with some ankle pants and the wide leg pants with a fitted blouse.
