I'm Secretly Excited for September so I Can Try This One Autumn Trend
I have spent the majority of this week researching autumn/winter 2020 trends, and so I have saved hundreds of images of catwalk looks that I think will impact how we get dressed over the next six months. There is one styling trick that is
making me look forward to a drop in temperatures, even though I'm reluctant to actually admit this. Almost every major show on the schedule included blazers cinched in at the waist with a belt—either with a statement belt like the jewel-encrusted chains at Chanel or a skinny black leather belt that makes it a subtle accent to the look.
At Prada the belts featured circular clasps and a prominent logo, and were used to play with proportions on the already oversized and boxy blazers. Nanushka's belts ticked off another of the key trends for autumn winter 2020: fringing. Beige trouser suits were punctuated with a black fringe belt with a gold circular clasp. Some designers even created blazers with inbuilt belts, such as the studded jackets at Jil Sander. Keep scrolling for some of my favourite iterations of the look, and then shop belt-and-blazer pairings. -
Style Notes: Nanushka's autumn collection included beige trouser suits with a black fringed belt looped around the waist. Perfection.
Style Notes: This is one of my favourite looks from the autumn winter 2020 collections. This Jil Sander buttery cream jacket has an added edge with black buttons and a studded belt.
Style Notes: Trust Chanel to have the most glamorous twist on this trend. Chain belts are set to be another key trend for autumn.
Style Notes: At Miu Miu, a black leather belt was looped over a checked oversize jacket, showing this styling trick doesn't just apply to tailored looks.
Style Notes: At Chloé, the blazers were unbuttoned with the arms rolled up.
Style Notes: At Prada, boxy blazers were cinched in at the waist with belts with circular clasps and the Prada logo.
Style Notes: At Celine, a gold chain belt was used to add interest to a black tuxedo.
