Top Trends From New York Fashion Week Fall 2012


From leather gloves and fur-clad sleeves to sumptuous velvet and shining brocades, the runways were rife with new trends to try come autumn. We've narrowed in on the most prominent styles from NYFW so you can be ahead of the curve. Check out StyleBistro's catwalk recap!


Jason Wu's eagerly awaited collection kicked off the Eastern-inspired theme for NYFW. The motif seemed to inject itself into every other runway show thereafter in the form of obi belts and rich brocades.


It was practically impossible to find a fur-free runway this season. We shudder to think of the animals sacrificed for Fall 2012 fashion. Alas, the trend adorned everything from vests to hats in every shade and texture imaginable offering a heavy '70s vibe.


A mixture of vibrant cranberry and blackberry hues were a big hit on the NY runways. We're excited to see a healthy dose of vibrant purples come autumn.


Knee-high socks, pleated skirts, proper collars and layered jumpers all screamed British school girl. Play it cool with these dorky-chic looks.


Fur, leather and more fur, this was not the season for vegan dressers to do their shopping. There was a new spin on the traditionally tough element for fall with gowns and draped cocktail dresses featuring the edgy skin.


In case the fur trend wasn't enough for you, the sleeves of leather jackets, blazers, trenches and swing coats were all adorned with the controversial fabric. The beastly arms definitely make a fierce statement.


The sternum's 15 minutes has been extended with a new take on the sexy show of skin. Designers toyed around with deep-plunging lace and chiffon necklines for fall's new sophisticated spin on the provocative trend.


Silver and gunmetal metallics slithered down the catwalks in the form of elegant light-casting gowns. The icy elegance offers an Old Hollywood glamour with a futuristic slant.


An offshoot of the Eastern invasion was the Japanese brocades that were used in everything from pantsuits and girlish mini-dresses to sporty jackets and elegant coats.
