Fall fashion week is a time when designers showcase their latest creations, setting the trends for the upcoming season. Boho-chic was a prominent trend in fall 2024 fashion, with many designers and brands embracing the look. Let's take a look at the 7 hottest fashion week looks that graced the runways this year.
1. Bold Shoulder Pads
Shoulder pads made a strong comeback this fall, adding structure and power to any outfit. Designers like Balmain and Saint Laurent showcased exaggerated shoulder pads, giving a nod to the '80s power dressing trend.
