Trends That Will Be Everywhere This Winter, According To Fashion Insiders

Every season, a new selection of soon-to-be bestsellers hits our favorite fashion retailers. With so many products and trends to keep up with, it’s hard to know what to “add to cart” when the time comes. In our New Arrivals series, we consult the buyers, editors, and fashion insiders at our go-to shopping destinations to find out their best bets for the season’s MVPs (most valuable products).

It's officially time to pull out the 2021 fashion trends list to see what you need to invest in this season, and what may already be in your closet. To compile our shopping list, we tapped buyers and experts at some of the most popular retailers to see which fashion items we should expect to see everywhere in the next three months.

"Worn to be seen, they can go from casual to dressed up depending on what it’s paired with." After months of quasi-retirement, jeans are coming back — well, at least, one style is. Cold-weather staples like puffers and combat boots are taking a turn for the fashion-forward.

Ahead, the winter fashion trends to look out for, according to insiders.
