19 Winter 2024-2025 Fashion Trends You HAVE to Know About

Grab your hot cocoa and fuzzy slippers, because it’s time to cozy up with some gorgeous fashion trends for winter 2024-2025. Forget blending into the sea of simple puffer jackets—this season, it’s all about drama. We’re talking faux fur, sequins, burgundy red, and everything in between.

Ready to give your closet a makeover? Let’s dive into the trends that will take your winter style to the next level this year.

1. Voluminous faux fur coats

Faux fur is making a big statement this winter… literally. Voluminous silhouettes are everywhere, with oversized coats that will have you feeling like you’re wrapped in a cloud. And it’s not just about the coats. Faux fur shrugs, sherpa-lined jackets, and fuzzy accessories are all the rage for that extra touch of cozy glamour.

If you can’t find ethical faux fur, go for consignment fur! It’s a sustainable alternative to reduce the impact on the environment and animals.

2. Long-line tailored trenches

Sometimes, the best way to stand out is by keeping it simple. This season’s long-line (maxi), tailored trench coats in black and neutrals are sleek, sophisticated, and timeless. These coats are effortlessly cool, while keeping you warm. They add a polished, classy touch to any outfit, and their clean-cut lines will never go out of style, making them a great investment for your wardrobe.

3. Penny Lane coats

We’re seeing the Penny Lane coat everywhere, from high fashion to street fashion. This midi-length coat with shearling or fur collars and cuffs is your go-to outerwear in 2024 for that '60s and '70s vibe (as seen and loved in Daisy Jones & The Six). It’s the perfect blend of boho-chic and winter functionality and seriously screams “main character energy.” Throw it on, and you’ll feel like you just stepped out of a retro fashion editorial.

4. Leather luxe everything

Leather is always a winter staple, but this season, it’s stepping up in a big way. From leather suits to statement trenches, and pants to pencil skirts, fashionistas are going all out with leather. Whether you’re heading to a lunch with coworkers or hitting the town for a night out, leather adds an edge that keeps your look sharp and sophisticated. Who says you can’t be cozy and a little rock ‘n’ roll at the same time?

5. Power dressing office wear

Winter 2024-2025 is all about strong, well-defined workwear that makes you feel like a boss, with the resurgence of suiting options like power shoulders, slouchy trousers, and oversized tailored blazers. Smart pantsuits are also back in a big way, giving off those “I mean business” vibes but with a relaxed, contemporary aura.

6. Playful fringe

Fringe is here to shake things up for winter 2025. Fringe adds playful movement and personality to your outfit, and we’re seeing it on everything from coats to dresses to accessories. 2025’s fringe feels contemporary and fresh, rather than dated, and leans heavily towards dramatic maximalism. We love a little extra swish in our step!

7. Whimsical feathers

Like fringe, feathers add playfulness and whimsy to your winter wardrobe. This season, we’re seeing feather embellishments on outerwear, dresses, and accessories, creating a cool-girl visual intrigue that will have all eyes on you. Whether you're heading to a winter gala or just want to spice up your everyday style, feathers are a fabulous way to add textural interest to your look.

8. Ethereal sheer fabrics

Designers are embracing lace and sheer overlays for winter, giving outfits a romantic and ethereal feel. These pieces are more dreamy than sultry, baring just enough skin to turn heads without feeling too exposed. The sheer fabrics of 2024-2025 are all about creating a winter look that’s a blend of delicate and daring, perfect if you’re curious to try new things with your look.

9. Ruffle hemlines

If Bridgerton taught us anything, it’s that ruffles can make any outfit feel royal. This winter, ruffles are making a big statement in dresses, skirts, and blouses. Think layered ruffles, ruffled organza dresses, and voluminous ruffled hems that add a glamorous touch to any look. You’ll feel like a modern-day duchess in these ruffled pieces.

10. Sequins and metallics

Why wait for New Year’s Eve to break out the sequins? Head-to-toe sequins and metallic accents are trending all winter long, adding allure and opulence to your winter wardrobe. Whether you’re going for a shimmering evening look or just want to add some sparkle to your day-to-day, sequins are your best friend this winter.

11. Leopard print neutral

Leopard print is back and better than ever. This season, it’s taking on a more sophisticated vibe, working its way into neutrals, rather than just a statement print. You’ll find leopard print in everything from coats to dresses to accessories. Pair it with bright, solid colors or mix it with other prints for a look that’s wild yet chic.

12. Burgundy red (the color of the season)

If you’re looking to add a pop of color to your winter wardrobe, make it burgundy. This rich, elegant shade is the color of the season, showing up in everything from long trench coats to monochromatic ensembles. A rich deep burgundy is sophisticated, modern, and guaranteed to make a statement. Incorporate it as a pop of color in your accessories or make it the star of the show.

13. Cozy knits

Knits are no longer just about staying warm—they’re a major style statement too. From colorful knit coats to oversized turtlenecks and even knit handbags, winter 2024-2025 is turning the cozy factor way up. And with eye-catching looping and bold patterns, these knits are anything but basic.

14. Bold checks

Oversized check patterns are making their mark on coats, scarves, and even dresses this winter. It’s the classic check patterns you’re used to – like plaid and houndstooth – but bigger and bolder. These daring patterns add a playful yet polished vibe to your winter wardrobe, especially for work.

15. Feminine bows

Bows are still having their moment, in everything from fashion to home décor to weddings. For winter, bows add a feminine, romantic touch to your look that gives a lighter feel to the traditionally heavier winter pieces. Bows are the perfect way to embrace your inner coquette girly-girl while still looking chic.

16. Asymmetric pencil skirts

Forget boring workwear—this winter, it’s all about asymmetric pencil skirts that add a dynamic edge to your office attire. These skirts are striking and out-there yet still work-appropriate, giving you the perfect balance of personality and professionalism. And if you’re really feeling bold, pair your pencil skirt with other trends like leather or knits for a look that’s modern and chic.

17. Luxe velvet

Velvet is always a winter favorite, but this season it’s going beyond dresses. We’re seeing velvet suits, trousers, and blazers, adding a sophisticated, textured touch to any outfit. Velvet is the ultimate way to feel luxurious while staying warm.

18. Classic black and white

Some things never go out of style, and a black and white ensemble is one of them. This chic, timeless pairing is perfect for winter 2024-2025 for just about any aesthetic, whether you're going for a minimalist look or something more high contrast. Black and white is an effortless way to look put-together and purposeful, giving that chic French-girl vibe.

19. Short shorts with long jackets

The set of the season? Short shorts and long jackets in matching colors and textures. This unexpected combo of mini shorts with long trenches is fresh and fun, showing off your adventurous and fashionable side.
