With NYFW coming to a close, it’s evident that next fall will be all about the wow-factors. So take the drama out of your life and channel it into your wardrobe with bold, vibrant color, daring plunges, and jaw-dropping embroidery. Take a look at some of our favorites from the runway this week!
1. Exposed Shoulders
The off-the-shoulder trend was huge last spring and this season it’s evolving. Not only is the wide-v shape back in style, but joining it are wider lapels and drop sleeves, which are making some pretty interesting shapes.

2. Bold vs. Classic
Whether you like to stand out in a crowd or give off a more subtle vibe, you’re bound to enjoy the color trends this season. For those who love to be more daring with their shades, it’s time to stock up on that bold, vibrant red. It showed up in the form of gowns, blazers, blouses, jackets, and more!
Anyone looking to channel a more classic energy, power navy might be more up your alley. Transform it into a waterfall trench, on trend suiting, or even a chic dress.

3. Embroidered Sheers
Here’s a trend we can totally mesh with. On the runway, embroidery has been taking the fashion world by storm as gowns and dresses. We’d love to see some creative thinking bring this trend into the ready-to-wear scene. How wonderful would it be to see some crop tops or tulip shorts made from one of these fabrics? Maybe even a sheer summer jacket!

4. Mock Necks
This is a personal favorite – mock neck blouses and dresses. It’s difficult to find a trend that looks good on everyone, but when it happens, it just works. This silhouette elongates your torso, giving a sleek and chic look no matter what. The best part? You can still have so many different styles with it. Try a delicate lace, an edgy rib knit, or create a cute look under a cropped jacket.

5. Velvet
Velvet was huge this year and it looks like it’s here to stay for at least another season. We’re certainly not complaining though. You may have one idea in your head for velvet – stiff A-line dresses, but this year they’ve been showing up as something a bit new – jackets and shawls!
