Fashion: Fall - Winter Trends

By: Oksana Drosd

Black, Romance, Volume

Think of Fall - Winter "˜05 fashion trends as the darker, richer version of spring and summer trends: turquoise turns to teal, gauze becomes wool, camisoles become romantic blouses.

While there’s plenty of newness to shop from in the stores (fuller silhouettes) there are also new reasons to buy staples like denim (now it’s embellished).

Designer have revived favorites that make sense to most women such as black (the universal color of chic) and tall boots (no ridiculous bare legs and sandals in freezing weather anymore).

Sample a bit from each Fall - Winter 2005 fashion trend and mix it in a unique way, making it personal with jewelry, color and layering.

Black is the New Black

After seasons of bright colors and white, black reappears as a chic look for everything from dresses to accessories.

Unlike the minimalist appeal of black in the past, black now has pretty embellishments, full volume, soft fabrics and other intriguing details to make it not-so-basic black.
Color Story

Spring and summer’s turquoise has mellowed into a rich teal (also called peacock or Moroccan blue). This pretty blue-green color mixes beautifully with earthy colors and flatters most complexions.

Rich browns also make this season’s must-have list, accented by shots of burnt orange, moss, ginger and other naturally inspired hues.

Romantically Inclined

Soft, sheer blouses in white, black or prints are the top of the season. With bits of lace, velvet, ribbon trims or even puffy sleeves, these romantic tops ( Alight.com) are the perfect layer under fitted velvet jackets.

Retailers are calling this trend "Baroque" or "Renaissance."

Volume Dressing

Worn with a fitted topper (jacket, shrug, capelet - Designer apparel, footwear and accessories at YOOX) and paired with tall boots, the full skirt takes on a new look for fall.

Volume also comes in full gauchos or culottes, or a loose, dolman-sleeve top.

The key to wearing volume without looking sloppy is to pair a full item with a slim item (dolman-sleeve sweater with skinny jeans or full skirt with a fitted top).
