Some may posit that we've over-indexed on fantasy -- however, there are plenty of more wearable trends set to ascend this year that you can start shopping now. Discover them ahead, along with the exact styles we're eyeing for 2025 dressing.
An unexpected offshoot of the ladylike trend, the swift rise in capes, capelets and similar silhouettes points to a deeper refinement of quiet luxury. This really took hold in the form of outerwear on the autumn/winter 2024 runways of Bottega Veneta, Proenza Schouler, Alberta Ferretti, and Chloé, and it continues into the spring. Scandi darling Totême proposes a draped "goddess dress" featuring a layer of gathered fabric that curls quietly around the neck, while Chanel has a more literal take on the look, complete with a superhero-in-training-style necktie.
