The winter mantra: an allure of outside-the-box, timeless style. Proof of this comes as a mix of all kinds of trends, from romanticism and darkness and bohemian and bourgeoisie to sexy charms and extra volume. A panoply of Fall/Winter 2020-2021 fashion trends as eclectic as they are versatile, to be adapted to one’s personality. In 2020, everything is delivered with just the right dose – that is to say, pick exactly what suits you from here and there to construct your style.
New shoulders
The leitmotif of the season, strong shoulders are making their big comeback. Dethroning rounded and square forms, triangular shapes now reign supreme – for a truly on-point look.
Bohemian chic
A kind of easy-luxe hybrid of “hippy-tude” and bourgeoisie jet-set, resulting in chic elegance with a folky twist. Brilliantly highlighted with intricate precious embroidery and rich fabrics, the value of bohemian attitude is truly on the rise.
Ruffles
With a season steeped in romantic influences, frills are making their inevitable comeback. Whether on modern shirts or in the form of a refined bib with aristocratic airs, this pretty detail is enough to make any silhouette shine.
Hardcore
From a dominatrix look to chic combinations and corseted latex, this is the new feminine silhouette known as fashion fetishism.
Silver
Shine bright. Under an ultra-luxury inflection, the fashion this season is all about playing with silver with cascades of mesh, lamé, crystals and rhinestones.
Capes
More than a trend… a recurrence. What’s new for winter? An all-over, utterly bourgeois allure.
Matrix
Black leather is making an unapologetic comeback. Between black humor and a show-off attitude, the ghost of Keanu Reeves in The Matrix haunts the catwalks for a gothic, 1990s revival.
Color block
Who says red and purple don’t go together? Certainly not the on-trend designers of Fall/Winter 2020-2021. And why not throw in a shade of pink to sweeten it all up? Make it pop!
Maleficent
An alchemy of darkness, plunged into the most opaque obscurity in a eulogy of the shadows: Maleficent makes one wonder. Is the evil Queen the ultimate inspiration of 2020? We saw it in our crystal ball.
Velvet night
An untouchable classic and an endless source of inspiration, velvet is conquering the catwalks with total glamour with these three style variations on another great classic: the little black dress.
Maxi coats
Whether it’s deconstructed bourgeois at Maison Margiela, sensual grand soir at Valentino or a brilliant military look at Loewe, the coat serves as a basis for new proportions. And extra-large is definitely in order.
Undressed
This season’s headliner is the ultra-sexy look, in every form possible. On the runways, the trend comes into its own through a play on exposed lingerie that simultaneously advocates luxurious seduction and a desire to reveal the unknown.
Mini check
Altogether, a vast and varied geometry of hypnotic checks makes a lasting impression and ticks all the boxes of a preppy season profile.
