NYFW Fall Trends to Thrift
Another New York Fashion Week has come and gone. Left in it’s wake are collections that have us feeling dazzled and inspired to launch into the fall season. We’re all about making every street our runway and this season’s shows showcased a spectrum of trends that define fall fashion in the chicest ways imaginable.
With that being said, trends can be tricky and oftentimes aren’t the most sustainable items in your wardrobe because they tend to go out of style just as quickly as they come into it. So instead of buying fast fashion, consider looking into your own closet to see what you may already have to work with and if you turn up empty handed, we suggest shopping secondhand to fil the void. Here’s our favorite trends from NYFW that you can shop secondhand.
Animal Print
Animal print isn’t going anywhere, they’re neutrals after all. Leopard is commanding attention on the runways and on the streets. This season, leopard prints are not just a subtle accent but a bold statement. Do it big with a fun faux fur coat or do it small with a cheetah scarf or sock. However you do it, you’ll be looking fierce!
Available at The Niche Shop
Leopard print top, size L $42
Zebra Print top, Size L $42
60's
Not your grandma’s 60s! Statement accessories, knee high boots, mod patterns, and psychedelic prints graced the runways this season, and not in the Halloween costume way. One of the best ways to dive into a different decade of style is to thrift and vintage hunt. These pieces will capture the essence of the era seamlessly. These pieces come with a unique charm and authentic history that adds to the depth of the item.
Faux Fur
Out with real fur, in with faux! Faux fur is practical because it keeps you warm, but also has the bonus of making a chic statement while embracing sustainability. Designers are experimenting with bold colors, patterns, and textures, making faux fur a versatile choice for various looks.
Patterns, patterns patterns!
Say goodbye to quiet luxury and hello to maximalist fashion. Fall fashion is all about embracing rich textures and patterns, adding depth and interest to your wardrobe in big or small ways. This season, several key patterns are making waves such as tweeds, herringbones, and argyles. Bonus points if you can incorporate more than one into your outfit at a time!
Available at The Niche Shop
Houndstooth Turtleneck Sweater, Size Large $52
Brown Cropped Tweed Blazer, Size Small $52
Suiting
Suiting is a prominent trend for fall fashion, reflecting a broader move towards gender inclusivity and versatility in clothing. This trend blurs traditional gender lines, offering tailored looks that can be worn by anyone, regardless of gender. Wear to work or on a night out!

Remember, it’s totally possible to shop trends sustainably! Fashion always has a way of coming back around and choosing vintage makes your styling of the trend extra special. Which one of these trends do you feel inspired to incorporate into your wardrobe?
