1. **Sports-Inspired**
"For the transition months, sportswear is inherently breathable and conveys a relaxed 'cool' vibe before heavier layers are needed. Think of pairing track shorts with a chunky sweater, side-striped pants styled with heels for added sophistication, or a rugby crewneck casually draped over the shoulders."—Kendall Becker
2. **Bewitched Aesthetic**
"Following our fascination with bohemian styles in the warmer seasons, the airy aesthetic is being adapted for colder weather with a darker color palette, reintroducing rich fabrics like velvet and silk while maintaining the beloved elements of billowy sleeves, flowing skirts, and moments of suede."—Kendall Becker
3. **Hardware Accents**
"Whether featured on accessories or as eye-catching accents on straps, molten, organic-looking gold hardware provides an artistic way to refresh any basic piece."—Kendall Becker
4. **Jewel Tones**
"This season’s palette exudes a regal feel with jewel tones taking center stage—think sapphire, rich teal, deep red wine, amethyst, and golden rod yellow."—Kendall Becker
5. **Lace Comeback**
"This season, lace goes beyond sweet; lingerie-inspired elements are often present, whether through carefully placed trims or subtle glimpses of skin, and motifs are evolving past traditional florals into more artistic interpretations."—Kendall Becker
6. **Cinched Suiting**
"While relaxed trousers remain in style, there has been a noticeable shift towards cinched waistlines and more tailored silhouettes in blazers, tops, and vests."—Kendall Becker
7. **Other Animals**
"While leopard print was undoubtedly the trend last fall and will continue to be popular this year, consider opting for tiger or zebra prints to stay ahead of the fashion curve."—Kendall Becker
