It's time to put away your cottagecore dresses and pull out those moto jackets and ballet flats. Fall 2022 fashion trends are shaping up to be an eclectic mix of everything from the gritty "Bikercore" aesthetic to a focus on 90s-era nostalgic basics—and everything in between.
For the latest episode of Who What Wear With Hillary Kerr, our very own editor, Anna LaPlaca, breaks down how the latest runway trends could show up in your fall wardrobe.
When it comes to fall staples, LaPlaca predicts that the 90s minimalist aesthetic is here to stay.
"It's a return to those really great wardrobe staples that are going to carry you way past fall."
Plus: LaPlaca shares why those moto-inspired accessories that we saw in Balenciaga's latest collection aren't going anywhere anytime soon.
"They have continued to be sold out everywhere and are on some of the coolest people's feeds right now and on everyone's fashion wish list."

What are some of the biggest trends that our audience should prioritize this fall?
So many different smaller aesthetics. The first one is 90s minimalism. For the past few seasons we've focused a lot on these really bold silhouettes and bright colors that have dominated. While those aren't necessarily going anywhere, I think for fall, what we're seeing is almost this palate cleanser.
It's a return to those really great wardrobe staples that are going to carry you way past fall. It almost feels like these are more investment buys—but with a strategic twist. Think: A low-slung trouser and lots of pared back tailoring and suiting.
What else are you interested in for fall in terms of overall trend?
There's another incoming aesthetic in town and I'm calling it "Biker core". It's all about embracing your inner biker chick. Think moto jackets, a lot of leather looks. Obviously leather trousers are going to be a big part of this. In general, we're also seeing hardware detailing, like zippers and buckles across accessories.
What about accessories trends?
Everything Balenciaga is absolutely dominating. The accessories from this new collection have gone viral. They have continued to be sold out everywhere and are on some of the coolest people's feeds right now and on everyone's fashion wish list.
As you might know, 10 or so years ago the Balenciaga 'City' bag was the It piece to have. It was on every celebrity from the Olsen sisters to Kate Moss. Now the creative director of Balenciaga has brought back the iconic moto-inspired bag, but with a new range of accessories.
