15 Fall Outfits You Have to Try in 2025
So, you’ve finally accepted that summer is over. The iced lattes are now pumpkin-spiced, the sun is clocking out early, and suddenly you have to remember what “layers” are.
But here’s the good news: fall fashion is basically nature’s way of apologizing for giving us winter. Cozy knits, killer boots, oversized coats—it’s the season where your wardrobe finally gets to shine.
Ready to upgrade your fall fits? Let’s talk 15 outfits you need to try in 2025—because FYI, leggings and that hoodie you “borrowed” from your ex aren’t going to cut it forever.
1. The Oversized Blazer + Mini Skirt Combo
Big jacket, tiny skirt—aka the mullet of fall fashion (business on top, party on the bottom). Pairing an oversized blazer with a mini skirt gives that cool, slightly rebellious “I just threw this on” energy. Spoiler: you didn’t.
- Add knee-high boots if you’re feeling dramatic.
- Or sneakers if you’re feeling lazy.
Honestly, it’s a win either way.
2. All-Black Everything (But Make It Interesting)
Wearing all black in fall? Groundbreaking. But seriously, it works because it’s sleek, timeless, and hides coffee stains like a champ.
To avoid looking like you’re auditioning for the next Batman reboot, play with textures: leather jacket, knit turtleneck, and suede boots. The mix keeps it from being boring.
3. The Chunky Sweater + Wide-Leg Jeans
Is it even fall if you’re not swallowed whole by a chunky knit sweater? Didn’t think so.
Pair it with wide-leg jeans for that slouchy, effortless vibe. Bonus: it’s basically socially acceptable pajamas, and IMO, that’s the dream.
4. Trench Coat with a Twist
Classic trench coats are cool, but in 2025, we’re going bolder. Look for cropped trenches, leather versions, or colors beyond beige. Yes, beige is safe—but it’s also yawn-inducing.
Imagine a deep green trench with chunky boots. Chic, mysterious, slightly intimidating. Perfect.
5. Sweater Dress + Belt
The sweater dress is back (again), but let’s be honest: without a belt, it kind of screams “potato sack chic.” Cinch it with a statement belt, throw on thigh-high boots, and suddenly you look like you planned your outfit, not like you just rolled out of bed.
6. Preppy but Not Too Preppy
Think: pleated skirt, collared shirt, oversized cardigan. The “academia” vibe is alive and thriving in 2025, but don’t overdo it unless you actually want people to ask what time your debate team meets.
Add combat boots to keep it balanced. Otherwise, you risk looking like you wandered off a private school campus.
7. Monochrome Magic
Pick a color (any color), and go head-to-toe. Yes, it’s bold. Yes, people will stare. But that’s the point.
A burgundy monochrome look screams fall without going full pumpkin spice cosplay. Just… maybe skip neon orange unless you want to be mistaken for traffic cones.
8. Bomber Jacket + Midi Skirt
Bomber jackets aren’t just for frat boys anymore. Pair one with a midi skirt for a look that’s sporty but still feminine. It’s like saying, “Yes, I’m tough, but I also know how to accessorize.”
9. Leather Pants (Yes, Still)
Leather pants keep coming back every fall because they just work. Pair them with soft knits to balance the edge. Or go full rocker mode with a leather jacket—double leather, double the drama.
Fair warning: they squeak. Loudly. Prepare for the soundtrack of your thighs clapping every time you walk. 🙂
10. Plaid Everything
Plaid shirts, plaid skirts, plaid jackets—it’s not going anywhere in 2025. The trick is to mix plaid with neutrals so you don’t look like a walking picnic blanket.
Pro tip: an oversized plaid shirt layered over a crop top and jeans never fails.
11. Maxi Coat + Sneakers
This is the outfit that screams, “I have my life together” (even if you don’t). A floor-sweeping maxi coat instantly elevates your look. Pair with sneakers to keep it casual, because who actually wants to run errands in heels?
12. Cargo Pants, but Cute
Yes, cargo pants. They’ve officially graduated from “dad on vacation” to “street style essential.” Pair with a fitted turtleneck and chunky boots. The pockets? Perfect for snacks. Priorities.
13. Denim on Denim (Canadian Tuxedo 2.0)
Before you roll your eyes—hear me out. In 2025, denim-on-denim is all about playing with shades. Light wash jacket, dark wash jeans. Or vice versa. It’s intentional, not accidental.
Add bold accessories so you don’t look like you just walked out of a 2003 boyband music video.
14. Faux Fur Everything
Nothing says cozy fall glam like faux fur jackets or vests. It’s bold, a little over the top, and exactly what you need when temperatures drop.
Pair with sleek pants or skirts to balance out the drama. Otherwise, you risk looking like a Yeti.
15. The “Lazy But Stylish” Set
Matching sets are your best friend when you want to look put together with zero effort. Think knit sets, sweater + skirt combos, or even ribbed loungewear. It’s giving, “I woke up like this,” but without the Beyoncé-level effort.
Final Thoughts
Fall fashion in 2025 is all about mixing comfort with personality. Oversized everything is still in, but now it’s paired with bold textures, unexpected layers, and just enough edge to make people ask where you shop (and no, “my closet” isn’t a helpful answer).
So, which outfit are you trying first? The oversized blazer + mini skirt combo? The monochrome look? Or are you going full faux-fur diva? Whatever you pick, just remember: fall is about having fun with layers—not surviving in a hoodie you’ve had since high school. 😉
