For the first time, jeans and a t-shirt aren't our fall uniform—*this* is.
While summer is all about being relaxed with your clothing choices and dressing according to your mood (and the weather, naturally), I find that fall is much more conducive to a uniform style. As the days become shorter, it's essential to reach for pieces that you know will work well together, regardless of the circumstances. Typically, this means opting for some form of jeans paired with a T-shirt. However, Hailey Bieber suggests that a new uniform is emerging this fall. Unfortunately, denim, your top position in the fall fashion hierarchy is now held by black tailored pants. When styled with boatneck tees and kitten heels, the fall 2025 uniform comes to life. The Rhode founder was seen in this classic ensemble—featuring slightly cropped cigarette pants, a white boatneck tee with three-quarter sleeves, and strappy kitten-heel sandals—while celebrating the unveiling of her new Rhode billboard on Sunset Boulevard alongside Kendall and Kylie Jenner. She completed the outfit with stylish glasses and a black Jil Sander Goji shoulder bag.
Celebrities like Bieber, as well as Laura Harrier, Kendall Jenner, and Kaia Gerber, appear to have transitioned from solely wearing denim to incorporating black pants and trousers into their wardrobes, often paired with kitten heels (similar to ballet pumps) and a casually elevated T-shirt. As early fall evolves into late fall, expect to see oversized wool tailored coats, leather bombers, and trench coats making an appearance. Cashmere sweaters will be seen draped over shoulders or worn atop those boatneck tees.
The beauty of this uniform lies in its simplicity and sophistication. In contrast to jeans, black trousers can easily be worn to a nice restaurant or a more formal occasion. Even with a T-shirt, the look remains polished and stylish. The footwear options are virtually limitless, with kitten-heel sandals currently being a popular choice, along with mules of a similar height expected to trend later this fall.
