A Season of Timeless Styles and Subtle Details  

What will women be wearing this autumn? Fashion experts agree that clean, conservative styles are making a comeback.  

What are the trends for women this fall? According to the style-savvy professionals at Chadwick's, the nation's largest and first value fashion catalog, clean and conservative styles are once again in fashion. Revealing outfits are out, and layering is in. Fashion buzzwords include volume and textured fabrics, with rich hues like black, red, purple, and gray dominating the runways. Chadwick's shares these tips for staying stylish this fall:  

Sleek Silhouettes  

The "new suit" consists of fitted jackets combined with slim pants and skirts for a polished, tailored appearance. Consider a mandarin collar or a washed wool plaid blazer paired with your favourite trousers for an elegant look. Alternatively, menswear-inspired suit jackets softened by feminine details and gentle draping create an outfit suitable for both the boardroom and a bistro.  

Add flair to your trousers by opting for cropped or wide-legged styles. Many top designers have embraced this trend by mixing contrasting elements—pairing loose with tight and long with short. Anyone can pull off this look by balancing the silhouette with heels or an appropriate top.  

Touchable Textures  

Luxurious velvet has returned this season. Chadwick's designs include crushed and jewel-toned velvet blazers that offer a contemporary style.  

From chunky cable knits to fine gauges, there is a knit for every occasion. For a warm option on chilly autumn evenings, select a sweater-knit. For a feminine touch, try a twin set adorned with ruffles or a beaded cardigan.  

Au Courant Accents  

When it comes to tasteful fall layering, details make all the difference. Lace or ruffle trims add a romantic flair beneath shirts and jackets.  

Embroidery along the hem of a skirt or down a pant leg adds a stylish accent. Paisley and floral patterns provide classic variations on this modern trend.  

A signature look is a jacket cinched at the waist with a belt. Pair it with boots of any height for a contemporary ensemble.
