It's one thing to dissect the runways and make predictions as to what will become influential in six months, but it's quite another to observe what actually becomes popular and buzzy IRL. Now that the fall 2023 collections have landed in stores and have had time to make their way onto the street, it's time to report on what is actually resonating in the wild because, let's face it—not everything we loved on the runway will translate into a practical item worthy of our (already maxed-out) closets.

Yet this season, there are a number of items that have managed to break through and emerge as *the* ones to know. Whether it was Bottega Veneta's Andiamo bag and the star-studded list fans it's earned, the newest launch from Adidas' perpetually sold-out collaboration with Wales Bonner, or the first Ferragamo bag designed by creative director Maximilian Davis, the most-buzzed-about luxury items are already defining fall, if not 2023 as a whole.

Here, we've put together our master list of the 29 pieces that are making their mark on style right now. These are unquestionably the items that have everyone talking.
