Even though fashion week season has concluded for over a month, its trends still resonate as they begin to set the stage for the fall-winter season while having major influences on certain summer styles. Let us explore the vogues that stand-out from the top Fall 2018 Ready-to-wear collections:
Prairie Dresses
These Victorian-inspired items dominate many of the designers’ collections this season. Conservative and feminine with a touch of enigma, this 19th century dress is revamped in various ways, with accessories that give each dress outfit distinct sensations.

Plaids
Tartans, as it was originally called, are all the craze this season. While it is nothing too groundbreaking, plaids remain a classic for the fall, keeping its grunge vibes while being continuously renewed into more elegant, refined designs.
Balenciaga

Huge Coats
Trench, bomber, puffer-no matter what style-an enormous coat that gulps the wearer’s body seem to be the statement item of this season. Encompassing the whole body, a large coat’s designs or colors can act as the focal point of an outfit or simply enhances other items on the set.

Flamboyant Details
This fall ss18 is all about excess with flashy colors and ostentatious details. Fashion houses truly take us all back to the 80s when it is all about about excess.It can feel like too much when you view the collections, especially when they heavily contrast with the minimalistic trends in recent years.

Leather
And finally, of course at least a few pieces that utilised leather were in each collection. Leather isn’t a new material to the fall-winter collections anymore. Moderately warm, chic, enigmatic with a touch of elegance, you can never go wrong topping an outfit with leather.
