NYFW Street Style Stars Went for These 10 Trends

If you’re searching for unique and exciting styling ideas, there’s really no better place to look than the people of the New York City street style scene. New Yorkers’ style is so noteworthy that several Instagram accounts have gone viral just catching the people of this city off duty. Now, just imagine the looks that people pull out for New York Fashion Week—it’s the stuff of legends. This season was especially noteworthy in an anti-trend world, and we saw New Yorkers get creative and make their mark in this city that never sleeps.

As I attended NYFW myself, my eyes were peeled to see which trend predictions would com true. While a lot of our theories were proven to be true, there was a lot of new material to be seen and discovered. Below, I’ve rounded up the 10 best street style trends you can find. Enjoy.

1. Leather Tops

We’ve been through cycles of leather. Pants, jackets, and skirts have taken center stage, but there’s a new staple on top in this category—leather tops. Maybe it’s because Nanushka took New York City, but I’ve been seeing buttery-soft leather tops on street style stars all around town. I’ve been influenced.

2. Vintage-Inspired Denim

I’m always looking for ways to give my denim that throwback feeling, so seeing vintage-inspired jeans all over the street style crowd was a head-turning experience for me. Patched-up denim or baggy chino styles took center stage for sure.

4. Optical Lenses

Sunglasses are cool, but lately, librarian-inspired eyewear has been even cooler. As someone who only wears her glasses at home, I’ve been inspired to find cool ways to style my lenses while I’m out and about after seeing street style stars make it a thing.
