We've discovered one of the hottest trends for fall. Top designers are embracing this theme.

Although primarily associated with summer style, stripes are here to stay this year. The industry's most respected designers suggest incorporating this truly summery pattern into your fall wardrobe. Stripes and stripes appeared in both classic and modern versions at fashion shows from iconic fashion houses.

Nautical stripes are undoubtedly one of the fashion symbols of summer. A striped dress paired with a straw hat, raffia basket, and flat sandals is a proven way to achieve a casual, summery look. Top designers advise not to say goodbye to this universal pattern just yet. After all, stripes and stripes were one of the most striking elements of fall/winter collections.

In the coming season, it's worth adding a classic pinstripe suit to your wardrobe, which simultaneously reflects the hottest trends and timeless fashion canon. Carolina Herrera suggests opting for a modern gray suit in an urban style – with wide-leg trousers that discreetly taper towards the bottom and a short, waist-length jacket. Ferragamo, on the other hand, suggests a gray, menswear-inspired, elongated blazer paired with a knee-length skirt.

Many designers, however, are abandoning classic color palettes in favor of a more experimental approach. At Marni's show, a bulky, shaggy sweater with thick black and yellow stripes caught the attention of fashion commentators, while at Vivienne Westwood , loose, wide-legged trousers with contrasting stripes in muted shades of yellow, maroon, and blue were eye-catching. Proenza Schouler, on the other hand, opted for thin, asymmetrical stripes in navy blue and caramel brown.

A great way to incorporate a striped pattern into your fall outfits is with a trendy rugby-style T-shirt with a distinctive white collar. Wear it with your favorite jeans and platform loafers, or with a satin midi skirt and block-heel pumps.

A classic vertically striped shirt is a must-have in both summer and fall wardrobes. This season, it's a great choice to pair it with high-waisted trousers and a cashmere sweater.
