They are the perfect base for trending accessories like Katie Holmes's leopard print pumps and '90s-inspired shoulder bag, also from Kate Spade.

Getty ImagesTrouser suits are making a comeback after a few seasons at the bottom of the pile while so many people were working from home. A looser fit is preferred for autumn. And if you want to take things up a notch, wear it sans top. Holmes is pictured here wearing Christian Siriano.

Getty ImagesCut-outs don't have to be all va-va-voom. They can be cute, too. Palermo proved this at the PatBO show.

Getty ImagesCorsetry is back in full force, and you can blame it entirely on Y2K. The trend is pure nostalgia. Just look at Hadid's bodiced tube dress.

Getty ImagesTaking things up to a notch previously reserved for girl bands in the '00s, Irina Shayk is not messing around with this fierce corset-and-cargo-pant formula.
It would appear this is a new pairing to watch. Here is Ciara in a corset and cargo trousers from LaQuan Smith.
