The Paris Fashion Week was defined by bold and creative layering of skirts over pants. From sheer skirts to midi and even printed skirts, this look was seen on majority of the attendees including celebrities like Kendall Jenner.
With designers like Alaïa and Loewe at the forefront of this trend, this fashion style gives individuals the freedom to experiment what works for them and with the looks of things might become a trend next year.

Another fashion style that would most likely become a trend is Capri pants. They had a loud comeback during the Paris Fashion Week and may get more attention soon especially slimmer fits and the slightly baggy version of the pants.
One reason why the Capri Pants is creating so much buzz is because of how well it is reintroducing the 1900/2000s vibe and with Bella Hadid arriving the PFW in them, this is one trend to look out for.

Sport wear is no longer just about the gym, in the fashion industry today, as far as it balances comfort and flair, it’s a sport wear and can be styled for diverse occasions and outings.
Sporty touch outfits will have an edge because of its many benefits including comfort, versatility, and ability to tweak and balance it. Celebrities like Gigi Hadid and Maria Olympia are embracing it already while designers like Lacoste and Kenzo are actively pioneering the trend.

This is a relatively new fashion trend but fashion is really about experimenting and a lot of brands have hopped on this including Altuzarra, Michael Kors, Ashlyn and Patbo.
This trend was probably influenced by Pieter Mulier based on some pieces he designed for Alaia’s Spring Collection. Who knows? Parachute pants might become a thing soon!
