This Pretty Trend Was All Over the Fall Runways—29 Items I'm Not Waiting to Shop
While the fall collections are usually reserved for thicker, more insulating fabrics like cashmere knits and wooly outerwear, there was one standout theme among the collections this fall/winter 2023 season that went against the grain. Soft, supple satin proved to have a surprising but significant spot on the runways. The pretty fabric popped up in a myriad ways—from the luxurious satin suits at Fendi to the colorful bright satin separates at Tory Burch—proving that the fabric deserves a spot in our cold-weather wardrobes just as much as it does in our warm-weather ones.
That said, satin clothing is one trend I personally won't be waiting another six months to wear. With the fall collections fresh in my mind and spring at my doorstep this month, now is the perfect time to get in on the rising pretty theme. Inspired by the runways, I spent the morning shopping for luxe satin pieces to re-create the looks I loved most. Ahead, I'm sharing my satin-clothing shopping list that's as forward feeling as it is "now."
