After watching the street style stars do their thing at the European menswear collections and Copenhagen Fashion Week, we already have some hints about what the popular accessories will be among showgoers during the fall/winter 2020 season. Four outfit-making accessory trends have already caught on across the pond, and they will no doubt make an appearance over the next few days right here during New York Fashion Week.
Whether it’s statement making scarves or mid-calf moto boots, the four biggest trends can be found below. Now is the time to get ahead of the next accessory craze.
Mid-Calf Motos
Bottega Veneta had the must-have footwear back in September (square-toed heeled sandals) so maybe it’s not surprising that early showgoers have adopted Daniel Lee’s latest innovation, the calf-high moto boot. The taller stacked lug sole boot is perfect for stomping around through the last months of winter. And Bottega’s version is just one of many options. Take your pick between edgier lace-ups or sleek pull-ons and just wait for the endless boot-tuck opportunities to roll in.
Substantial Shades
Although the forecast for New York Fashion Week calls for rain (and a lot of it), street style stars always find an opportunity to throw on a pair of the season’s chicest eyewear. This fashion month, we can expect larger frames—the kind that will actually block the sun, if there is any.
Bye-Bye Baby Bags
Finally, practical-size bags are making a comeback, sure to please any showgoer or modern woman. A micro bag that could barely fit an iPhone could only stick around for so long. And while those tiny totes make quite a cute statement, a trend that involves practicality is one we certainly can get behind.
Screamin’ Scarves
The most statement-making and warmest way to bundle up this fashion month and for the rest of winter is with a bold patterned scarf. Both abstract logomania iterations and animal prints have gained traction among the fashion folk, meaninv it’s only a matter of time before they catch the attention of street style photographers prowling the fashion capitals.
