Cargo Pants

The latest trend to come out of the Y2K fashion revival is cargo pants. But these aren't just any utilitarian pants. Givenchy sent out pairs in tweed, pastels, and cropped lengths while Stella McCartney suggested elegant workwear alternatives to the casual style.

Metallics

Holiday dressing was a big Spring 2023 trend. In particular, metallics stole the show on the runways of Isabel Marant, Schiaparelli, and Balmain, which closed out its Spring 2023 show with a couture lineup of gold and bronze gowns (and a Cher appearance!). To avoid looking like you're still celebrating New Year's Eve in March, opt for daytime silhouettes in the form of jeans, slip skirts, and relaxed blazers.

Fringe

Flowing fringe was everywhere this month from New York to Paris. The latter worked most effectively at Koche and Vaquera, who sent out dresses and tops adorned in cascading fabric, as well as dramatic floor-grazing accessories.

Bows

One of the more sweeter trends from the Spring 2023 lineup, bows of all shapes and sizes appeared on the creations of Loewe, Thom Browne, and Dior. For those worried about looking like one giant present, fear not — designers are approaching the trend in subtle ways with barely there motifs appearing on otherwise minimal silhouettes.

Decorative Belts

"Unnecessary belts" continue to trend on the accessories front. This season saw double belts at Koché and Rokh as well as the decorative styles at Vaquera that seemed to exist for every other (ornamental) purpose except holding up the pants.

Designer Denim

We are in the golden age of denim. For proof see the many exciting trends that have recently emerged, from cargo jeans to balloon pants and double-waisted denim. If we are to believe the recent collections of Chloé, Givenchy, and Schiaparelli, this is just the beginning of the high-fashion denim renaissance.

Mini Bags

Don't be fooled by the big bag takeover happening in fashion right now, teeny-tiny bags will also make their mark on spring fashion as evidenced by the mini variations of signature styles seen at brands like Stella McCartney, Chanel, and Longchamp.

Color Pink

We will still be in the Barbiecore pink territory come spring. Rochas, Chloé, and more designers offered styles in different variations of the can't-miss hue.

Mesh Shoes

Previously seen at Jonathan Simkhai in New York, Nensi Dojaka in London, and Bally in Milan, the mesh shoe trend's dominance was solidified when Chanel sent out sheer diamante booties during Paris Fashion Week's final day.

Moto Jackets

While not necessarily groundbreaking, moto jackets have undergone a style update this season. To refresh the spring and fall staple for the new year, opt for interesting silhouettes and details (as seen at Schiaparelli) or a lighter hue like a beige or brown (Isabel Marant).
