With fall right around the corner, I decided to revisit the fall/winter 2026 runways. Whenever I go through a show, I'm always searching for styling inspiration to help inform how I think about shopping for the season ahead.

During Copenhagen Fashion Week, Baum und Pferdgarten styled a statement faux-fur coat with white tights (a micro-trend for fall 2026), and Caro Editions inspired me to wear a monochromatic white dress-and-shoe combination. At New York Fashion Week, Kallmeyer had one of the chicest looks of the season: an argyle sweater with a tailored miniskirt and sheer black tights.

In Milan, Simone Bellotti's designs for Jil Sander included a stunning high-neck wool coat—the perfect fall outerwear reference where the coat is the outfit. And Prada pushed me to rethink color pairings by mixing unlikely hues: a red wool scarf and an orange zip-up cardigan over a '50s-inspired baby-blue silk fit-and-flare dress.

Across the fashion month calendar, Paris is always my favorite, along with London Fashion Week. This time, Miu Miu was one of my most-loved collections, specifically dreamy knee-high boots with a poplin shirt and pencil skirt, referencing the house's late-'90s and early-2000s archives. Paloma Wool, typically known for muted palettes, surprised me with pops of bright color, such as a vibrant hot-pink sweater. The Row left me wanting to try a taupe trench coat with neutral tights and pointed-toe pumps, and Toteme showed another way to style a statement coat, with opaque black tights and tiger-print flats.
