These Are the 12 Fashion Week Trends That Are Definitely Getting Knocked Off

It’s become widely known that fashion week has a trickle-down effect, so even if you don’t have the budget to drop on designer duds, your fine-tuned style sensibilities certainly won’t suffer. And we’re not just talking about the endless runway style hacks and street-style trends that can be pulled off effortlessly with clothes already holdin’ it down in your closet. Within just weeks of hitting the runway, some of the biggest fashion week trends make it to fast fashion shops like Zara, H&M, etc. Here, we predict the trends that are guaranteed to be in stores come fall.

1. OTT Orange: Burnt orange is an iconic fall color, but designers such as Dion Lee gave the autumnal hue a bold makeover for FW17. Embracing shades of tangerine, papaya, and carrot simply wasn’t enough — expect to see the look-at-me color paired with OMG-worthy silhouettes and wow-worthy texture.

2. Camo Comeback: We salute you. We never really thought we’d see the day, but it’s official: Camo is back, and in a big way. Labels such as J.Crew (pictured above) injected the early 2000s trend with RN appeal, styling it alongside airy tulle skirts and bomber silhouettes. Look out for cropped and embellished versions of this trend. (Photo via Krista Kennell/Patrick McMullan/Getty)

3. Sculptural Accessories: Designers still appear to be on a more-is-more kick, at least as far as accoutrements go. Baubles were big, bold, and artistically inspired, especially at Proenza Schouler, where models rocked OTT architectural cuffs that we could totally see popping up in COS’s accessories shop (fingers crossed).

4. All Belted Everything: We love when designers highlight the sartorial power of a simple accessory, and FW17 paid tribute to the belt. 3.1 Phillip Lim was just one of the many designers to style statement cinchers over streamlined coats and blazers to elevate an everyday essential into a bona fide statement piece. Makes you kind of excited for cold weather, doesn’t it? (Photo via Peter White/Getty)

5. Deconstructed Shirts: There’s been a current of button-down-philia running through the fashion world as of late, and FW17 is no different. Bold interpretations of the office basic were a dime a dozen this season, but the topper that took home the prize for most cutting-edge design had to be this all-in-one number spotted at Monse. Ruffles, cutouts, a bow neck, and frilly collar make for a seriously Insta-worthy top that’s bound to end up on every blogger babe’s Insta feed. Keep your eyes peeled at Zara and the like for a reproduction of this stunner. (Photo via Peter White/Getty)

6. Flirty Fishnets: Once reserved for after-hours affairs, the fishnet is officially entering into the realm of daytime dressing. While we’d expect as much from envelope-pusher Jeremy Scott (seen above), the trend also made its way into more mellow collections such as Simon Miller and Cinq et Sept, which solidifies its staying power. (Photo via Peter White/Getty)

7. Gender-Neutral Denim: While skinny jeans will always be near and dear to our hearts, fashion is moving in a more androgynous direction. The proof? This relaxed double denim look from Calvin Klein that’s giving off major boy-meets-girl vibes. (Photo via Gustavsson/MCV Photo/Getty)

8. Quirky Toppers: Cozying up is about to get crazy cool, thanks to Marc Jacobs. Pharrell-esque beanies and statement baseball caps made a pretty mean argument for ditching your trusty knit topper next season. (Photo via Peter White/Getty)

9. Luxe Velvet: The fashion world is still crushing hard on velvet, but Ulla Johnson (above), Creatures of Comfort and Jason Wu took the super soft fabric to the next level with bold jewel tones and RN cuts. The rich fabric will definitely be high on our must-have list. Prepare for it to be EVERYWHERE. (Photo via D Dipasupli/Getty)

10. Bold Buckets: Forget Mansur Gavriel for just a second — everyone’s favorite handbag (the bucket, if you didn’t know) is getting an It-girl makeover with a sleek central loop handle and geometric embellishments. We can see this showing up on shelves at Zara, Uterqüe, COS, and Charles & Keith — we just hope we’re right. Swoon. (Photo via Slaven Vlasic/Getty).

11. Extreme High Waists: High waists have been a thing for a while now, but designers are raising the bar (or rather the waistline) yet again. Take your wardrobe to haute new levels by ditching low-rise trousers in favor of this legs-for-days look a la Rosie Assoulin. (Photo via Randy Brooke/WireImage)

12. Power Suits: 2017 is looking to be a good year for your girlboss wardrobe. Structured skirt and pant suits in power pink, plaid, and everything in between promised to reignite your love passion for this classic on-the-job ensemble. This Rosie Assoulin number in particular is an ode to the working woman who is just as serious about fashion as she is about climbing the career ladder. (Photo via Mike Coppola/Getty)

Now that Halloween is officially over, it’s time to lean into all things holiday cheer. My favorite way to get into the Christmas spirit is decorating my space to match all the cookie decorating parties, gift wrapping sessions, and holiday cocktail hours to come this winter. But I’m one to do this on a budget – I often hit the thrift store for Christmas decor. When I’m not there, I’m scouring Amazon for pieces that are cute, but still take it easy on my wallet.

These are the best Amazon Christmas decorations I found that don’t cost an arm and a leg, but rival styles you’d find at more upscale stores like Anthropologie and Nordstrom:

Amazon

Peiduo Small LED Light Birch Trees

These tiny trees lit by twinkly LED lights are perfect for topping your mantle or dinner table. I think they add just the right amount of whimsy to your space, no matter how you decorate with them! They're not necessarily Christmas-specific, either. Their simple design allows you to spruce 'em up in all kinds of ways year-round. Similar pieces at Target and Anthropologie range from $21 $68 for one tree, but you can get two trees for just $25 on Amazon right now.

Amazon

Plaid Throw Pillow Covers

Plaid – specifically red plaid – is timeless when it comes to Christmas decor. It never fails to make a space extra cozy! These 18x18-inch covers are perfect for throw pillows on your bed and couch alike. You can snag this set of 2 in a few other holiday-ready colorways for just $10, and they'll likely last you a while with the right care.

    Amazon

    Artgar Real Touch Pine Garland

    If you have a mantle, use it! A mantle is prime real estate for Christmas decorations like stockings, candles, and cards – but none of that is truly complete without a good garland! This 6-foot faux pine garland can easily span your mantle to fill in any negative space and simply make things cozier. It comes with attached LED lights (no wall plug necessary, just a few batteries) as well as pinecone accents to make the garland itself feel fuller. Plus, $30 isn't so bad for a statement piece like this!

    Amazon

    Vintage Bow Decorative Tray

    This piece reminds me of a tray Pottery Barn Teen and LoveShackFancy sells in their collaborative collection, except it literally costs $60 less. It's not a total dupe, but the one thing it does have in common is bows: the most adorable reference to gifting season! I think this $9 pick could be so cute as a serving platter for Christmas desserts or even as a festive catchall you keep on your coffee table throughout the holidays.

    Amazon

    Kate Aspen Retro Floral Drinking Glasses

    The intricate design on these green-tinted glasses really has me hooked. They'd look so good with any sort of Christmas party tablescape – as long as you're sipping Christmas cocktails out of them! A similar set of 6 is currently being sold on Quince for $48. This one's only $26.

    Fans of Fourth Wing are on pins and needles because Rebecca Yarros just announced she's finished writing the third book in the Empyrean series! It's us, we're fans — along with over half of BookTok.

    We can't believe we're getting closer to reading more about Violet Sorrengail's journey, but we know you have a ton of burning questions about the release date for Book No. 3.

    We may not have all the answers, but we've done a little digging to share as much as we can because who doesn't want to know what Rebecca Yarros has been up to?

    I'm new to the Empyrean series. Are "Fourth Wing" and "Iron Flame" really worth reading?

    Amazon

    I'm not going to lie to you. The editorial team, including myself, are extremely biased about Fourth Wingand Iron Flame. From my perspective, I think these are great books for anyone who had the pleasure of growing up during the great Harry Potter era and moved on to watchingGame of Thrones and House of Dragons.

    Did she announce the name of book no. 3?

    Rebecca Yarros/Instagram

    YES! Book No. 3 is titled Oynx Storm.

    Knowing what we do about the manifestation of Violet's powers, I think this could hint she's going to play an even larger role in the series. According to a fan theory shared on TikTok(via Empyrean Riders), it's believed that Violet and Xaden Riorson are actually gods. Stay with me here.

    Empyrean Riders noted that Violet's last name means heavenly and that she's able to control time thanks to her connection to the young dragon Andarna (I love her so much!). That sounds pretty god-like to me.

    And when asked which two Taylor Swift songs describe Onyx Storm, Rebecca Yarros chose "Who's Afraid of Little Old Me?" from The Tortured Poets Department and "So It Goes..." from Reputation. "Who's Afraid of Little Old Me?" is one of Taylor's most powerful songs and definitely translates the idea that Violet's powers are going to be stronger than ever, while "So It Goes..." is equal parts suspense and seduction, and is TOTALLY about "all the pieces fall right into place" to get together with the right person.

    There's so much more to unpack so I suggest grabbing a yummy snack while you fall down the rabbit hole. All I'm sure of is that Onyx Storm is going to leave our emotions in shambles just like Fourth Wing and Iron Flame did.

    When did Rebecca Yarros announce she's done writing book no. 3 in the series?

    Rebecca Yarros/Instagram

    On June 17, Rebecca Yarros shared this image of her laptop to indicate she'd finished the third book in the Empyrean series.

    She wrote, "(Pic from one of the very many locations in which this book was written)," towards the end of the caption before adding a few relevant hashtags to it.

    When will Onxy Storm be available for purchase?

    Rebecca Yarros/Instagram

    Rebecca Yarros exclusively told Good Morning America that fans can expect the book to hit shelves January 21, 2025! That gives us a little over six months to prepare our emotions for what's sure to be a storm of a book.

    She said, "There will be politics, new adventures, old enemies and of course, dragons." There's no way she could forget the dragons because I'd willingly riot over them. They deserve to have their stories told forever.

    As luck would have it, Cosmopolitan received an exciting first look at what's to come in Onyx Storm. The excerpt begins with Violet realizing the Venin have found their way into Basgiath War College and are wreaking havoc. Alongside Rhiannon, Sawyer, and Ridoc, she races to stop the Venin from releasing Jack Barlowe from his prison cell.

    However, Violet's shocked when she discovered one of the "dark wielders" has a long silver braid that closely resembles her own. Before she can fully react, the woman disappears. According to Screen Rant, there are possible theories about why Violet saw her and what this means for her growing power.

    Towards the end of the excerpt, Violet discovers the Venin want to capture her too. Also, Xaden makes his long-awaited appearance and it's clear their playful banter in the face of danger hasn't changed. That he hasn't fully changed into the Venin Violet's used to seeing.

    I officially can't wait to read the rest of the book in January!

    Has Rebecca Yarros revealed the cover for Onyx Storm?

    Today/Bree Archer, Elizabeth Turner Stokes for Entangled Publishing

    Onyx Storm

    Yes!

    TODAY received an exclusive look at the cover for Onyx Storm and it doesn't disappoint! Unlike its predecessors, it appears Rebecca Yarros is hinting that darker events will take place.

    Fans of the Empyrean series aren't the only ones who are excited to see what fate has in store for our favorite characters though. In a statement to TODAY, Rebecca revealed how elated she is to be working on the series again. "It's amazing to be back with these characters again. She also said, ""I can't wait for readers to see what Violet, Xaden, and the rest of the quadrant have in store for them in Onyx Storm!"

    Kate Winslet is THE Hollywood actress to me. Not only has she starred in box office smashes like Titanic and Avatar: Way of Water, but she's proven her acting chops in breakout indie flicks and provided mothers and daughters everywhere with eternal Christmas movie nights thanks to The Holiday. But the actress' consistently viral kindness, her dedication to embracing her natural beauty, and her sophistication don't mean she always feels confident. Kate Winslet just spilled on the one movie from her career that had her "sh—ing" herself, and I just had to dive in.

    Here's what Kate Winslet had to say about her scariest movie experience ever.

    • Kate Winslet made a name for herself with Titanic, Sense & Sensibility, and The Holiday.
    • However those movies aren't the film she wants fans to ask about!
    • The actress spills on the movies she's proud of, and the one job that had her "sh—ing myself."

    Talking to Vanity Fair for her newest film Lee, Kate Winslet revealed one project she wishes fans asked about more is Iris. The 2001 film stars Kate as a young Iris Murdoch against Judi Dench's older counterpart. And for Kate, nothing was more terrifying than working with such a wonderful actress.

    "People don’t really ask me about Iris. It’s such a delicate film," she says. "It was the first thing I had done after having my daughter. Going to work with a baby, I’m playing Iris Murdoch, looking to Judi Dench’s older Iris Murdoch — I was sh—ting myself."

    Considering how nervous I get when I meet my heroes, I can only imagine what it was like to meet Dame Judi Dench. Talk about a dream! Another film Kate loves is Revolutionary Road, and not just because she got to reunite with Leonardo DiCaprio.

    "The thing that people say is, 'You got to work with Leo again.' Then they go off on the whole Leo tangent, which I totally understand," she says of the film, which follows an ambitious couple who find themselves trapped in the reality of 1950s suburbia. "But Revolutionary Road — f—king hell, it just knocked us all sideways. Unbelievably difficult material. I was very proud of that film and what Leo and I were able to create as Frank and April. It was so brutal."

    The process for getting Lee into the world sounds equally brutal, considering Kate started working on it over a decade ago. As producer, Kate tells Vanity Fair she doesn't mind the fact she's done more for the film than if she only had an acting credit. "That has felt very necessary for this film. But it’s also just really important to me," she says. "It’s important to me that people know that it’s out there and might feel compelled to go and see it."

    Because it turns out, commercial success or stardom on its own doesn't actually help your movie get made! "It doesn’t matter who you are," she says. "No one’s going to go, 'Oh, I’ll just back that pony because she was in Titanic.' It doesn’t happen that way, and I never expected that. That’s really important to say."

    "I've gotten older and I’ve learned more and felt more confident in myself about whether or not I could actually do it," she adds. "It’s not something I would’ve done had I not felt so passionately about the subject, and Lee was just—she wouldn’t let me go."

    Let us know your favorite Kate Winslet movies in the comments, and since we've officially entered cozy season, check out Why The Holiday Movie Ending Is The Most Important Scene while you're at it!

    Marvel movies are known for their heroes and their hopeful outlook on the world. But in 2025, we're getting a brand new team: the Thunderbolts. This team is made up of antiheroes and former villains, and it's sure to be the wackiest and strangest, as well as one of the most memorable, superhero movies we've seen in recent years.

    Keep reading for the latest news on Thunderbolts* before it hits theaters in 2025.

    Marvel Studios/YouTube

    Thunderbolts* comes out this May, and the cast just showed off some brand new footage at the D23 convention — and thanks to the new 'Celebrating 85 Years' spot, we have the first look too!

    We get a look at Bucky Barnes, The Red Guardian, John Walker, and Ghost. Plus, Yelena Belova, of course. This heartbreaking detail about Yelena's new look connects Florence Pugh's Yelena to Scarlett Johansson's Natashaand I'm WEEPING.

    Marvel Studios/Walt Disney Studios

    And at D23 Brazil, we got a brand new look at my new favorite team. "There’s something in this film, in terms of superpowers and superheroes, that shows that our superpowers lie in how ‘broken’ we are," David Harbour said at the event. "As if our superpowers came from our relationships.”

    What is the plot of Thunderbolts?

    Thunderbolts* Plot

    Consider Thunderbolts* to be The Avengers' edgy younger sibling. The movie follows Yelena Belova (who we know off the bat is a "depressed assassin" thanks to a Marvel Studios press release). She's joined by Bucky Barnes, The Red Guardian, and John Walker. Based on a leak, it looks like we'll see this group of misfits team up against Valentina Allegra de Fontaine after she sends them on a deadly mission.

    Thunderbolts* Release Date

    Thunderbolts* Release Date

    Thunderbolts* hits theaters May 2, 2025.

    Who's on the Thunderbolts team?

    Thunderbolts* Cast

    Thunderbolts* stars Florence Pugh, Geraldine Viswanathan, Lewis Pullman, Hannah John-Kamen, Wyatt Russell, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Sebastian Stan, and David Harbour.

    This is a huge cast, and Viswanathan just revealed how crazy the first day of filming was. “My first day didn’t feel real," she tells Vanity Fair. "I felt this extra pressure of, ‘Know your lines, babe. You can’t really play around like you usually do.’"

    Historically, sci-fi fans haven't been kind to actresses in their favorite projects (remember when Star Wars fans bullied Kelly Marie Tran off social media?). But Viswanathan is already thinking ahead. “If it’s overwhelming, I’ll log off. But I like discourse around pop culture,” she says. “[Thunderbolts*] felt a little bit edgier and fresher, more existential and dark.”

    Jesse Grant/Disney

    The rest of the cast also enjoyed working together. “Everyone is going to f—kin’ love me! It’s really, really, really fun to be with a group of actors that you have a good time with," Wyatt Russell says at Comic Con (via Variety), while David Harbour adds, “Florence Pugh [is] just electric to work with. There’s warmth and humor, but there’s also a lot of pathos.”

    “This is why we can't stop laughing together, because we genuinely just had such a wonderful time with each other and we've loved working with one another," Pugh tells People. “I feel like this is something that we've never seen before from Marvel...it's a very open and honest and truthful idea. And I'm just really excited for people to watch it.”

    Are you excited for this brand new chapter in the MCU? I really feel like Thunderbolts* will usher in a whole new generation of fans and I, for one, CANNOT WAIT! Let us know your thoughts on Facebook.
