FALL TREND: FAUX LEATHER

Dressing up is back! (Remember how we used to do that every day? Don’t worry, we’re not suggesting that.) It’s one reason faux leather is big this fall. People are finally getting excited about dressing up and leaving the house again. And that’s worth celebrating with a new outfit!

If your daily routine still involves more sweats than skirts, never fear. Faux leather is surprisingly versatile and easy to dress up or down. It’s also a new addition to the wardrobe staple club, so don’t be afraid to grab a new piece (or two) for your closet. It’ll look fresh this year and for many to come.

Best of all, any body type can wear faux leather and look amazing. Inclusive trends for the win! Below, we’ll break down our favorite ways to wear it and feel your best.


FAUX-LEATHER LOOKS FOR EVERY BODY TYPE

Attention, Carries! Throw a faux-leather shacket (the shirt + jacket hybrid you’ve been seeing everywhere) over a fitted top for a no-brainer fashionable fall look. The length of the shacket combined with skinny jeans adds height without bulk and who doesn’t love that?


This faux-leather peacoat is perfect for Keelies. Not only is its shearling lining cozy for cool temps but the roomy fit is flattering. The shearling detail highlights the shoulders instead of hiding them (and we’re all about that!) and draws the eye to her best features—a small waist and long legs.

A high-waisted pair of faux-leather pants look amazing on Evies. The bow tie flatters her waist and curves. Perfect for going from day to night, the straight fit lends a relaxed feel to the outfit while the fabric dresses it up a bit.

Calling all Shellys: add a high-waisted faux-leather mini skirt to the shopping list ASAP. This look defines the waist and the pleats add volume, ideal for creating the illusion of curves on a rectangular shape. We love it with this mesh shirt for a night out, but this skirt is versatile enough to pair with a sweater for an elevated daytime look.

Our Becca is rocking a high-waisted faux-leather legging which accentuates her waist and curves. The fitted mock-neck top highlights her shoulders and helps define her entire hourglass shape from top to bottom. 

We hope you feel inspired to show off a faux-leather look this fall because fashion trends are for everybody—and every body. Comment below and tell us which faux-leather trend speaks to you!
