Know the top 5 Pre-Fall Trends for 2021 Before it's Almost Time for it!
COVER STORY / 2021-09-08
If you’ve landed here, you’re about to get a good head start on autumn's top trends. We have a quick, bumper edit of what's going to dominate for the upcoming season of pre-fall 2021 collections. These top trends are currently dropping into stores as you read further. Pre-fall trends are essentially the precursor to your cold-weather wardrobes. These in-between-season trends act as the jumping-off points for many designers to introduce their winter collections and showcase new ideas. Pre-fall trends are a reliable indicator of what's going to be on every wish list across the land for the next six months at the very minimum. So, it's a clever time to invest in items that you can wear tomorrow through to the same date in 2021 and beyond!
Bright jumpers
Bright printed outfits in relaxed shapes have been in trend since last autumn. Prints can get outdated; colors don't. And a used-to silhouette will always feel laid-back enough to wear on repeat for various occasions. Bright jumpers are in. Notable designers like Fendi, Tory Burch, and Michael Kors are among others to have showcased this trend in their latest collections. Each bright jumper will make you glow like the sun. Go bold with hues of lime green, turquoise, hot pink, and cherry red. If you don’t like unshapely garments, go for jumpers with sleeker tailoring. Pair your jumpers with sparkly sandals or chunky boots based on the occasion and time of the day. It's cool-kid fashion, and the best part is that it hits the sales floor soon.
Not your average stilettos
Pointy, ferocious, and long – there's a new wave of heels sticking two fingers up to sensible. They're also being dubbed as "revenge" heels. So, you're definitely not going to be wearing them for walks or pottering around the house, but there are sassy options for dinner dates and future parties coming in thick and fast. Think chain-strapped courts and snake-skin textured heels. You have it all when it comes to stiletto trends of pre-fall 2021.
Co-ordinated and smart
We're more than accustomed to co-ords these days. The idea of co-ords seems to have really picked up over the last few years. Now the trend moves into slightly more tailored territory with well-fitting boyfriend silhouette matching separates. Smart co-ordinates are a go-to for brands such as Rejina Pyo and Balenciaga. Designers have showcased their renditions of this minimal-smart pre-fall 2021 trend over the runways, and it’s about time you take co-ords seriously!
Sneak-Peekaboo
This cheeky trend isn't just for Instagram. Clearly, women are buying into the cut-out idea. Designer labels have continued to create riffs on the ‘peekaboo’ idea season after season. So you can go as peekaboo as you like, but I enjoy the demure shape set against an exaggerated keyhole detail.
Fancy Pajamas
Brands are expecting customers to want to dress comfortably for a stay-at-home lifestyle at least till the end of 2021, and understandably so. So they're suggesting fancy daytime pajamas that you won't feel strange wearing for any and all virtual functions, made from silk, striped cotton poplin and even dark florals. Here’s presenting another big trend for Pre-Fall 2021!
