With each fashion week comes a new roster of MVP trends. Sure, every label sends their own spin down the runway, but it often feels like there's a checklist of trends that goes out to all designers (is there?). Regardless of how it comes about, one thing is clear: At the end of the season there will be a slew of affordable interpretations of every must-have item — thank goodness. If you're dying to know what buys you should be on the lookout for Spring 2018, click through for a preview of what New York had to offer.

Bungee Cord Details:
Designers reimagined the windbreakers of yore by adding drawstring accents to everything from pullovers to skirts (as seen here by Public School). Does this mean we can bust out our neon '90s-era throwbacks? (Photo via Thomas Concordia/WireImage)

Stripes: What can we say? They never go out of style and we're not mad about it, either. For a playful update, try a colorful version from Vivienne Tam.

Shoulder Show:
This trend ain't going nowhere, either. Fashion's power players showed one bare shoulder in varying iterations for spring. We fell in love with this Self-Portrait number immediately. (Photo via Victor Virgile/Gamma-Rapho/ Getty)

Transparency:
One of the trickier trends that reemerges every so often, sheer pieces were everywhere once again. The key to wearability? Strategically placed layering items like we saw at Adeam.

Big Shoulders: Yes, working girl, get it. If the Proenza Schouler runway is any indication, it's time to dust off your mom's power shoulder pieces.
