From bold leopard-print jackets to bubble skirts, these LFW looks are far from boring.
One street styler went full-on feral, wearing a buttoned jacket covered in leopard spots. Meanwhile, another embraced fashion's red-and-purple color combo, a viral mash-up that has recently dominated designer catwalks and celebrity circles. Elsewhere, bubble skirts and balloon pants took center stage, proving that billowing shapes aren't going anywhere. And perhaps the most daring display of maximalism was an enormous faux fur pillbox hat, which instantly commanded my attention.
While I'm definitely a pared-down dresser, I've been inspired to zhuzh up my outfit rotation with these bold LFW looks. Of course, there's nothing wrong with minimalism, but there's something to be said for allowing yourself to have some fun every once in a while.
Ahead, I've put together a shopping edit to help you do just that. Filled with warm layers and cozy knitwear, these street style outfits are especially easy to recreate for fall.
While animal-print outerwear is surely a statement-making look, you don't have to be intimidated by it. This street styler demonstrates an easy approach to the feral trend. Pair it with a pencil skirt, high-vamp heels, and a designer handbag for an undeniably pulled-together outfit.
If you had told me bubble skirts would be around for this long, I honestly wouldn't have believed you. When the style established itself as an emerging trend during the Spring 2024 season, I thought it would surely fizzle out. But I'm mature enough to admit that I was totally wrong. Fast-forward to this fall, and it's still going strong. Follow this showgoer's lead and give it an autumnal twist with a zip-up jacket and knee-high boots.
This past summer, Marie Claire's staff writer Meguire Hennes reported on the rise of the red-and-purple color combination. The vibrant blend surfaced on the Spring 2026 runways of Carolina Herrera, Stella McCartney, and Prada. Then, celebrities like Dua Lipa and Victoria Beckham tried it out. Given that the combination is still going strong this season, go ahead and style the mash-up for yourself with the fun outfit formula below.
According to this fashionista, spacious silhouettes are the way to go. Consider the look with a pair of roomy balloon pants. Adhere to a "more is more" style philosophy by pairing them with an equally baggy sweater. Finally, add elevated shoes and accessories, like a pair of glossy loafers and a set of shimmering gold earrings.
