Fall Fashion Trends 2009

Fall Fashion Trends 2009

This season there are over a hundred trends from the catwalk fashion shows. This fall you will see a return to classic tailoring with suiting for every occasion not just the office and boardrooms. Remember Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman? Boyfriend blazers, suiting and a return to classy dressing with 80’s inspired silhouettes is returning. As I have always taught, if you were around for the trend the first time, it’s not for you the second time. That said, just don’t wear 80’s from head to toe. Pick one or two trends with classic pieces to keep it age appropriate. You will see loads of fur and leather as the cooler weather begs for cozy layering. To bring all of the trends to a concise list of usable street wear, I’ve organized the trends into two categories: 40’s inspired ladylike and rockstar! There’s sure to be something for everyone regardless of your age.

White is very chic in the fall and wintertime when paired with other tones of white like light beige, taupe or cream. Accessorize with metallics for a classy chic style like silver, gold or gunmetal. If there’s one must have piece for the fall/winter, buy a sleeveless menswear inspired vest. Wear it overtop t-shirts, tops, ruffled blouses, button up collared shirts or long sleeve sweaters. Leave it open or buttoned-up. Try belting it to accentuate your waist for a curvy feminine silhouette. Tres chic!

40’s inspired ladylike

During these tough economic times everything is more basic with less embellishment. Style and glamour is achieved by the fit, silhouette and coordination of your clothing into wearable outfits. This trend is a departure from casual dressing and returning to a sophisticated, feminine glamour. Your wardrobe will be built on neutral tones such as black, navy, charcoal, brown or bordeaux to give maximum mix ‘n match possibilities. This is a new era of elegance. This trend is for the woman who is tired of always being casually dressed and wants to look and feel more pulled together, classy and elegant regardless of her height or size.

Here is a quick reference list to follow this trend:

long and lean silhouettes
draw attention to the waist with details at the waist like pockets or belted styles
wear a belt over tops, jackets to draw attention to the waist for a feminine hourglass shape
wear pencil skirts
and slim pants
use flowers as a feminine inspiration on purses, brooches on hats or necklaces, bracelets, and scarves
wear pretty blouses, try ruffles, lace, sheer material on sleeves
wear hose with your skirts, try black fishnets for a glamorous edge
a cardigan is your fall must have garment, think Michelle Obama. Wear a medium width belt overtop
mix up fabrics: shiny with matte, jeans with a beaded jacket, a skirt with a t-shirt and sleeveless vest
belted short capes are the coat of choice
multiple strands for necklaces, mix up pearls with edgier metals and gold links
a return to 80’s inspired cowl necklines
day dresses can be a comfortable option to pants; choose jersey or knitwear
evening dresses with adorable heels and a clutch purse
consider purple for a muted feminine colour

Rockstar

During these tough times, the tough get tougher. Their clothes have a harder edgier look anchored by a dark palette of black on black. 80’s strong shoulder lines give a tough proportion reflecting that we are carrying tough burdens but our shoulders can handle it. No, do not wear your original 80’s clothes. The modern shape does not look like football uniforms! You may try one bare shoulder on tops and dresses to have a strong emphasis on the shoulders. Revealing shoulders can be a very sexy alternative to cleavage. A bare shoulder is not appropriate office attire. To pull off this rockstar trend, consider the following:

Think rock ‘n roll: leather, studs, heavier eye liner, smoky eyes, high heels
everything leather this fall from gloves, jackets, boots, skirts and even dresses. Do not wear big hair and loads of eyeliner if you are older than 25! Instead wear one element of this rockstar inspiration to keep your look age appropriate. Wear classic pieces with your leather jacket. Add a bit more liner with a deeper lip colour.

Leather in exotic skins like python, crocodile and lizard for purses, belts, bracelets
black on black rules from matte to shiny fabrics; from opaque to sheer. Wear them unexpectedly together
boyfriend jackets that hit lower on the hips with room to move; look for jackets with some shape not just oversized long boxy jackets from the 80s. Wear them like a cardigan: over a camisole, top, dress or blouse. Team them with slim bottoms like a pencil skirt or slim leather pants and amazing heels
shine and sparkle for both day and night, mix with fur, ruffles and leather for a modern look
Huge chunky rings continue to be popular
Wear opaque dark hose like chocolate brown, charcoal gray or fall colours like deep teal or bordeaux wine. Avoid neon tights.
Black sequin with matte fabrics
Edgier hairstyles, sleek and clean, definite parts
Oversized accessories
Elasticized plaid scarves are hot this season to keep your neck cozy when out and about
Hats; fedora, newsboy and page. Wear slightly tilted to show off your best side
Ankle booties; if your legs are slim, wear them with skirts, dresses or ankle pants. These are an easy way to where a trend while keeping it age appropriate.
Don’t overdo this trend by looking like you are part of a bike group or going to the bar. Keep it classy and modern by introducing leather with classics, wearing one or two trends with classic pieces

Avoid these trends

Avoid Double denim; the slim and the young are wearing head to toe denim. If you insist on wearer denim on denim, make the two denims a different colour; one dark and one lighter.
Avoid acid wash denim unless you are younger than 25
Avoid high fashion puffy coats. Is it
really flattering on you? Maybe if you live in an urban center and wear size 4 or smaller
Avoid mini dresses or skirts if you are older than 25. If you are one of the lucky few more mature ladies with beautiful legs, it is still too much leg to show. Calm it down by wearing ankle leggings and booties.
Avoid thigh high boots.

However, because of many internal and external factors, this supply diminishes and therefore the skin sags.
