When it comes to fashion, it’s time to dive into the fall 2024 trend. Already, you ask? Yes, indeed. Meteorologically speaking, fall started on September 1st, and the equinox took place on September 22nd. Sure, with our  Moroccan weather it still feels  like summer, but the days are getting shorter, school is back in session, and some store windows are already preparing for Halloween. Christmas will follow, along with the annual reappearance of Mariah Carey. Time flies, and so does fashion, as fall 2024 is already bidding farewell to the 2000s (Y2K) in favor of more chic and refined influences.

This fall 2024, the trend leans towards “old money,” quiet luxury, and “very demure”—the latest buzzwords among Millennials and Gen Z. In other words, think timeless classics, elegance with a hint of extravagance, or a boho-chic vibe. Luckily, there’s no need to overhaul your wardrobe or max out your credit card.  Here’s our mood board-inspired selection based on the influences of major fashion houses (runway shows and social media) and the search engine, Stylight.

The Cardigan

Unbelievable but true, the cardigan is THE standout piece of the Fall 2024 trend. It’s hard to get more classic than this—you might even consider borrowing one from your grandmother. To give it a preppy twist, choose one that’s form-fitting or slightly oversized, in white and cable-knit.

The Suede Jacket

This season, we’re embracing the western allure or the indie sleaze aesthetic with suede jackets and overshirts. Short or long, trench or bomber style, studded or fringed, in shades of camel, khaki, or plum—everything is blessed by the gods and goddesses of fashion. Suede can also extend to pants or handbags.

Baggy Jeans

Although fall 2024 is saying goodbye to Y2K, the style lingers a little longer with the return of baggy jeans—the staple of 2000s R&B singers. After mom jeans, flares, and cargos, it’s time for baggy jeans. Comfy and laid-back, pair them with a frilly collar (for example) and heels or Mary Jane flats (though the author of these lines has sworn off ballet flats for good).

Boho-Chic

The boho-chic aesthetic of the seventies is making a comeback this Fall 2024, largely thanks to Chemena Kamali, the new artistic director at the prestigious house of Chloé. Hailing from Düsseldorf, Germany, Kamali grew up inspired by the muses of the 1970s: Jane Birkin, Charlotte Rampling, Lauren Hutton, and Jerry Hall.

So what does 2024 boho-chic look like? Think long dresses or skirts, flared pants, flowy fabrics, lace, transparency, psychedelic prints, and nude colors, along with ruffled blouses, exaggerated collars, shoulder pads, puffed sleeves, and baroque frills. Top it off with a long, straight leather jacket (a big trend this fall) or a short, playful one, and thigh-high boots.

Bubble Skirt

 In May 1987, Lady Diana broke fashion norms by strutting down the Cannes Croisette in a baby blue puffball dress. Fall 2024 puts a modern spin on this by favoring a shorter versionthe bubble skirt. The result is a pop, romantic, and voluminous look.

The Cape

As we’ve mentioned, fall 2024 is all about ultra-classic and classy vibes. To achieve a ladylike look straight out of the 1950s, invest in a cape. But since we’re in the 21st century, this piece has shed its bourgeois lines in favor of more experimental variations.

Cow Print After Leopard

Last but not least for fall 2024, the cow print trend was launched by it-girl and model Emily Ratajkowski.

Since then, this print has seen a 141% surge in online searches, according to Stylight. At Bottega Veneta, the cow print appears on handbags; at Stradivarius, on mules. But will it dethrone leopard print? No. Whether it’s Dior, Balenciaga, or Azzedine Alaïa, leopard remains at the height of trends, ever sensual, sexy, and confidence-boosting.
