Leather and suede -- and their faux counterparts -- are classics for fall, but both are having an especially prolific run as the fabrics du jour for fall dressing in 2025.
Madewell's sumptuous suede accessories and jackets are a must-see for those looking to cultivate an earthy sophistication, while those looking for a bit of edge this season will adore Popilush's newly dropped faux leather collection featuring curve-hugging skirts, corset tops and more in deep red, black and brown colorways.
Following the boat tote trend of summer, and in line with the continued popularity of the "old money" trend, New England-inspired fashion has the sartorial set in a chokehold for autumn. Think cozy and expensive-looking swallow-you-up sweaters, elevated barn jackets, relaxed denim, academia-inspired blazers and riding boots or wellies as daily wear. Often overlapping with its older, more aristocratic style cousin, British Countryside, pile on these classics for a stately air while dressing this fall.
Burgundy was everywhere in fall 2024, and it continues to be on-trend for 2025, even as the pool of popular reds expands to include vermillion, ruby and all shades of the rich, sensual color. Go high-end with a Aknvas Fiore cocktail dress or get luxury for less with a cashmere sweater from NYDJ for under $100. Feeling less bold? Try a splash of red with ankle boots that peek out from under your favorite fall trousers or pick up one of Old Navy's trendy new bracelet bags in Rich Red to replace your standard black carryall.
Faux fur jackets and accessories are going to start popping up everywhere in the coming months, as we saw on the Autumn/Winter 2025 runways during various Fashion Weeks earlier this year. Get in on the trend now with the Karl Lagerfeld Paris leopard jacket below -- a classic motif that's spent multiple seasons on an upward trajectory -- or go super bold with a red, fluffy bucket hat that instantly turns up the heat on any cool weather ensemble. If that's still too bold, try just a touch of fluff with a faux fur bag charm that recalls Lagerfeld's infamous Fendi monster bag charms from 2014.
The silk/satin skirt trend has been holding strong throughout this decade, allowing well-heeled dressers to add pumps and a beautiful blouse for an upscale vibe or throw on sneakers and a tee for a casual but elevated feel. Those skirts have moved from "trendy" to "staple" territory, but try the fabrics in a variety of other pieces as well, like a gorgeous Elie Tahari silk button-down that's well worth the investment, thanks to impeccable tailoring and a soft, alluring sheen, or a classic silk or satin scarf that looks fantastic tied at the waist, neck or around the handle of your handbag.
For a more detailed breakdown of what jackets to shop, make sure to read our roundup of the best fall jackets broken down by category. In addition to the beauties recommended there, here are some more trends to browse that work great for layering as the warm weather winds down including oversized bombers, stylish windbreakers, a cropped tweed number with faux leather pockets, and a quilted chambray topper that offers a twist on the standard denim layering piece. And don't miss Cole Haan's picture-perfect waxed cotton jacket inspired by British countryside clothes, making it the perfect piece to fit in this category or our preppy suggestions above.
During a recent trip to QVC headquarters to check out the brand's "Fall into Fashion" launch, "GMA" spoke with designer and TikTok superstar Carla Rockmore, whose recent collection with the brand offers relaxed sophistication that can be dressed up or down depending on the wearer's preference.
"I call it 'sexy with a seatbelt,'" Rockmore explained, pointing out the multiple neckline options on her Draped Jacquard Blouse. "It's a demure cut, but because of the drape and because of the shine and because of the fabrication in jacquard leopard, it's for the girl who may not want to go full-on but rather dabble in the leopard."
Stacy London and Jennie Garth were also included in the lineup of designers with QVC launches this season. Standout pieces include London's green leopard velvet blazer, a structured, eye-catching top layer that offers plenty of stretch for comfort, and Garth's Laurel Plaid Blouse with a waist-cinching tie that can be adjusted to create the shape you want.
Mixing silver and gold used to be considered a fashion faux pas, but recent seasons have been all about piling on both in the form of jewelry and accessories, plus adding in dashes of brass and other metals as they fit. The key to pulling off this trend is intentionality: Fully commit to the look by mixing gold- and silver-tone bracelets, mismatch your ring stacks and wear a silver stud with a gold hoop for interesting lobes. You can also take the easy route with one of our suggestions and pick a piece with multiple tones built in -- Kendra Scott's ultra chic hoops or bangles are a great place to start!
And if it feels out of your wheelhouse when starting to mix metals, keep some rules in place. For example, keep the hardware in your belt, shoes and bag all the same -- let's say gold -- then add in dashes of silver like you're "seasoning" the look. It's a fantastic way to look more carefree and modern, and you won't have to agonize about changing out your wearables while putting the rest of your look together.
