The Thigh Life > Fall Outfit Inspo: What to Wear This Season

Fall is fashion's favourite season and the perfect time to rethink your wardrobe. We love the season’s layering, textures, and rich colour palette. Whether you're stepping out in a moody romantic look or leaning into laid-back luxury, autumn offers endless opportunities to express your style. Below, we’ve rounded up 15 of-the-moment fall outfits for women that are both fashion-forward and totally wearable.

15 Fall Outfit Essentials That Belong in Your Closet 

1. Dark Academia with a Twist

Channel the intellectual charm of tweed blazers, pleated skirts, and loafers — but make it 2025. Swap standard tights for our sheer leggings, which offer breathable comfort while adding a modern, edgy layer. Finish the look with an oversized oxford shirt and a structured bag for a study-in-the-library-meets-runway vibe.

2. Cool Girl Skirt Set

Matching sets are still going strong as cute fall outfits, and an autumn-ready version with a mini or midi skirt and cropped jacket screams effortless cool. Choose plaid, wool, or houndstooth to keep it seasonal. Add tall boots and minimalist accessories for an influencer-approved look. Layer with our cozy Cotton shorts on cooler mornings to keep your legs cozy and chafe-free.

3. Big Pant / Small Shirt

This silhouette continues to dominate: oversized trousers paired with a slim-fitting tank or long-sleeve top. For extra dimension, layer with a trench or leather jacket. Cinch the waist with a belt to balance proportions and keep things polished.

4. Strong Shoulders

Power dressing is still in, with sharp-shouldered blazers and jackets leading the way. A cinched waist or tapered pant keeps the look from overwhelming your frame. Finish with sleek boots or pumps for a tailored, feminine vibe.

 

 

5. Sporty Luxe

Athleisure gets a glow-up with structured bomber jackets, silky track pants, and zip-up tops in elevated fabrics. Think “off-duty model” with sneakers, a baseball cap, and sleek sunglasses. Mixing matte and shine keeps it feeling modern.

6. Cozycore

Velvet, shearling, and wool rule this soft and sensual look that makes you want to stay in — but look chic doing it. Try a teddy coat over velvet pants or a chunky wool turtleneck with shearling-lined clogs. It's the fashionable equivalent of a warm hug.

7. Western Meets Y2K

The rodeo trend gets an autumnal remix with denim-on-denim, cowboy boots, and cropped shearling jackets. Add a low-slung belt or a vintage graphic tee for that early-2000s flair. A touch of rhinestone or metallic fringe takes it up a notch.

8. Futuristic Minimalism

Crisp lines, metallic accents, and sculptural silhouettes define this trend. Think asymmetrical hemlines, clean-cut wool coats, and silver hardware. Monochromatic looks — especially in grey or icy neutrals — amp up  the modern feel.

 

9. Burgundy Babe

This deep, sultry hue is fall’s must-have colour and flatters every skin tone. Try a burgundy slip dress under an oversized cardigan, or go head-to-toe with a matching sweater and trousers. Add gold jewelry and a vampy lip for extra polish.

10. Fringe

Fringe adds movement and texture wherever it lands — on suede jackets, knit dresses, or statement bags. Pair a fringe midi skirt with a slim turtleneck to strike the right balance. It’s boho, but elevated.

11. Capes

Skip the usual coat and reach for a cape to instantly upgrade any outfit. From blanket-style wraps to tailored wool styles, capes bring a regal, fashion-editor energy. Layer over leather pants or a mini dress for dramatic effect.

12. Sheer Knits

Lightweight, semi-sheer knits offer a sexy yet cozy way to layer. Throw one over a bralette or silk camisole and pair with a maxi skirt or jeans. Opt for soft neutrals like taupe, blush, or cream to keep it understated and chic.

13. Vests

Vests are fall’s low-effort, high-impact layering trick — wear one over a crisp button-down or turtleneck, or style it solo. Go for leather, puffer, or wool depending on your mood. They add shape and structure in an instant.

14. Dark Romance

Gothic meets feminine in this moody trend — think lace blouses, high collars, and dark floral prints. Layer with velvet or jacquard for rich texture. A dark lip and sleek boots seal the look.

15. Belted Everything

From wide obi belts to classic leather, a good belt adds shape and drama. Cinch it over oversized knits, structured blazers, or flowy dresses to define your waist and complete the outfit.

No matter your aesthetic, fall is the perfect time to play with proportion, texture, and tone. These 15 outfit ideas offer blend trend and comfort — and are wearable enough for everything from work meetings to weekend strolls.
