Pops of Color
Neutral-toned outfits reigned supreme this fashion month as show-goers mostly stuck to a quiet palette––especially in Europe––yet mixed it up with a vibrant pop of color. Cherry red was the "it" color this season––up +12% to last year in searches––as we saw this hue having a moment whether in the form of heels, sweaters or handbags. Similarly, fluorescent greens (4K AWS) and sunshine yellows (+4% to LY) stood out, too, bringing an of-the-moment feel to any look.
Denim
Denim was a top fabrication this season as the street-style set played with layering and baggy silhouettes. Oversized denim shorts (+31% to LY) and oversized denim jackets (+18% to LY) proved to be popular, especially with embellishments, along with denim on denim (+15% to LY) looks––the Canadian tuxedo definitely made its mark this fashion month. As for accessories, denim boots (+66% to LY) and heels (+92% to LY) were a hot trend paired with a denim bag (+47% to LY), paying homage to the early aughts.

Tulle skirts (+3% to LY), schoolgirl tights (+65% to LY), ballet flats (+68% to LY) and heels (+54% to LY) were popular pieces to accomplish the balletcore look. Ribbon bows (91K AWS) of all sizes were tied to garments or put in the hair for an extra sartorial touch.
Leather Jackets
