7 of Paris Fashion Week’s top trends for Fall 2016, 41 ways to wear them

Crazy shoulders

Call it the remnants of last season’s ‘80s trend (or as I previously mentioned, the influence of Vetements and Demna Gvasalia), but shoulders neared Dynasty proportions this season at Saint Laurent, Isabel Marant and yes, Vetements.

The red dress

It’s too bad Jessica Rabbit isn’t a real person—she’d have had a gay ole time picking her poison at Nina Ricci, Issey Miyake and Haider Ackermann.

Nightgowns, ruffles and slips—oh my!

One of the three appeared on virtually every runway last season, and to my surprise, this season too. From the super sexy Givenchy version to the Mormon take at Kenzo—there’s a nightie for everyone.

Denim-YOLO

I won’t bore you with another uninspired line about how important denim is. You already know it, but this time around you’ve just got more to work with courtesy of Off White, Balenciaga and Miu Miu.

Arty earrings

If the MoMa was smart, it’d be stocking up on Fall 2016’s offering of modern art statement earrings. At Ellery, they felt like Miro. At Stella McCartney they felt like Brancusi. At Balenciaga, they felt just like Sid Vicious (if he were a sculpter).

The trench and The parka

Fall/Winter’s two perennial faves got the special treatment this season, being reworked at Acne, Louis Vuitton and Stella McCartney (to name just a very small few).

Neck scarves

Some form of a choker has been trending for a few seasons, but the neck wrap of choice for fall was the silk scarf—whether collegiate at Dries Van Noten, bowed at Chloé or seductive at Rochas.
