Our Fall 2025 Fashion Forecast

Fall 2025 is shaping up to be a season of bold textures, revived classics, and unexpected color stories. Designers are blending lush, eccentric textures with pared-back silhouettes, creating outfits that are dramatic yet wearable. 

That means fall 2025 is your chance to play with fashion like never before: to add more layers, embrace bold accessories, and mix prints and patterns – even if your style is generally more minimalist or streamlined.

The best part is that all these fall 2025 fashion trends can be found preloved. Consignment is where you’ll discover the hottest statement pieces and investment-worthy staples of fall 2025 – without the guilt of fast fashion.

1. Bohemian Luxe Layering

Embroidery, flowing maxi skirts, cozy knits, and blouses with vintage appeal are defining the bohemian look for fall. Designers are leaning hard into the romantic wanderer vibe this season, layering textures and fabrics for a look that’s rich, romantic, and lived-in.

How we’re styling it: Start with a midi or maxi skirt found on consignment, then layer on a knit sweater, belt it loosely, and finish with an embroidered or denim jacket.

2. Animal Prints 

Animal prints are making a major return for fall 2025, styled as everyday staples rather than statement novelties. Leopard, zebra, and cheetah prints are being treated as unofficial neutrals, paired gorgeously with bright colors and other patterns for dopamine-boosting outfits.

How we’re styling it: Go big and bold. Have a leopard print coat or a zebra skirt? Add it into your usual jeans-and-sweater rotation, and let the print do the heavy lifting. If you’re not ready for a full maximalist look, opt for animal-print boots, scarves, and accessories for a pop of boldness.

3. Fringe, Leather, and Sequins (Oh My)

This season is all about texture with movement, like fringe jackets that swish when you walk, supple leather that feels both cool and classic, and sparkly sequins that glitter and shine.

How we’re styling it: Pick one standout texture per look, like a fringed jacket over jeans, a sequined midi skirt with a white tee, or a leather coat layered over a slip dress. Let the texture do the talking.

4. Purple Power

Step aside, neutrals. Jewel-toned purple is fall 2025’s most unexpected color. Regal, bold, and surprisingly versatile, purple adds drama and refinement to the everyday wardrobe. We’re particularly seeing rich violets and deep plums being paired with rich autumnal neutrals like camel, charcoal, and forest green for a palette that’s both striking and easily wearable.

How we’re styling it: We’re embracing purple in everything from outerwear to business blazers to going-out dresses. If you want a more understated look, a violet handbag or knitted sweater bought on consignment adds the perfect pop of color.

5. Scandi Pink

Soft Scandinavian-inspired pink is emerging as one of the season’s most surprising color stories. More refined than bubblegum and lighter than millennial pink, it lends a sense of subtle romance that pairs beautifully with neutral palettes like beige, gray, and olive. 

How we’re styling it: We’re obsessing over a silk skirt in blush pink layered with earthy knits and outerwear in beige, olive, and navy, beautifully grounding this spring-y color for fall.

6. Vintage Preppy

Preppy nostalgia is back in the spotlight this fall in the form of tailored blazers, pleated skirts, and collegiate-inspired details. This look is especially suited to fall, which calls for layered dressing and back-to-school polish, offering the kind of versatility that works for everything from coffee runs to the office to weekend outings.

How we’re styling it: A plaid or neutral blazer layered over a crisp white button-up with a pleated skirt or tailored pants is a classic fall combination. Add vintage loafers or knee-high boots from consignment to give the look an updated edge.

7. Midi Skirts

Midi skirts are one of the most versatile staples for fall 2025, showing up in luxe fabrics like velvet, silk, and pleated wool. This classic silhouette brings instant polish to daytime looks and transitions seamlessly into evening wear. We’re seeing midi skirts all over the runways, styled in looks that range from effortlessly casual to elegantly refined. 

How we’re styling it: Our go-to fall uniform this year is a pleated midi skirt with tall boots and a tucked-in knit. For work or nightwear, swap the knit for a cutesy vintage blouse or structured blazer, and finish the look with kitten heels.

8. Baggy Denim

Baggy denim is taking the spotlight this fall, offering a relaxed alternative to slim and straight-leg styles. The look carries a hint of ’90s nostalgia while still feeling current, especially when cut in deep indigo or washed black. Its easy shape makes it a go-to for off-duty dressing, yet it transitions seamlessly with the right styling.

How we’re styling it: Pair baggy denim with a cropped sweater and heeled ankle boots for a refined, purposeful silhouette. On cooler days, layer with a structured trench or a vintage leather jacket to keep the look intentional. You can also pair slouchy denim with a sharp vintage blazer or a silk blouse for a juxtaposing balance.

9. Power Accessories

Fall 2025’s accessories are bold, nostalgic, and impossible to overlook. Vintage brooches are making a comeback, layered jewelry is elevating otherwise minimal outfits, and thrifted bags in bold textures and patterns are adding personality to everyday looks. 

How we’re styling it: Statement accessories are the finishing touch that defines this season’s style, so search for your favorites on consignment. We believe that if something stands out to you when shopping, it deserves a place in your wardrobe.
