The Only Fashion Trends You Need to Know for 2025

A decade after normcore turned everyday essentials like gray hoodies and black leggings into fashion statements, luxury labels are once again finding inspiration in the least glamorous pieces in everyone’s wardrobe. At Ferragamo, models looked like they were leaving ballet class; at Tory Burch, the pool; at Tod’s, track practice. None of these pieces (save for that sequinned tank) are showstoppers that would look out of place in the gym or on a coffee run; the appeal here comes down to smart styling. Spend a moment considering color, texture, and layering, and your basics will look like luxury pieces.

8. Vegan safari

After blowing up in 2024, leopard print is nowhere near done for 2025—in fact, it’s being joined by snakeskin, zebra, and almost the entire animal kingdom. (Everything’s faux, of course.) It’s rare to find consensus across the industry but this one is completely clear: Prada, Ganni, Luar, Dries Van Noten, Jacquemus, Nanushka, and Caro Editions all used animal prints in one form or another. If you’re not ready to commit to a dress, a faux-fur coat or semi-abstract skirt are great places to start.

9. Easy asymmetry

One of the easiest runway trends of the year to recreate on a smaller scale is asymmetry. Arty and intriguing, these pieces invite a second look—and ooze I-just-threw-this-on ease. I’ve been most smitten with the asymmetrical skirts at Alaïa and Bottega Veneta; the latter’s were almost imperceptibly tilted to one side, suggesting they had been thrown on before running out the door. But the off-kilter offerings at Dior, Burberry, and Tory Burch are also eye candy, proving that the pieces below will elevate your wardrobe with pretty much zero effort.
