November is here, calling for wardrobe reshuffles and a fresh look at the fall trends defining the season. Based on this month’s standout findings, the key elements are texture, color, and fabric. Art Deco influence appeared throughout the runway—there’s no better time than now to embrace the trend with drop-waist styles that fit the bill, as seen at Kallmeyer and Fforme. Cummerbunds, usually known for tuxedo dressing, have now found a feminine place, particularly at Róhe. It’s also the season for autumnal textures in wool, velvet, jacquard, and knits—try a jacquard number from Tory Burch for an evening occasion, or pick up a sweater dress from Laura Manoogian to wear throughout the winter. And for all fall weddings and holiday festivities on the horizon, there are simply too many good options—from Maria McManus to Khaite—that will make you the best-dressed guest.
The Jewel-Toned Maxi
Cooler temperatures are no reason to retire color. Consider this your invitation to embrace it. Fforme’s elegant take on the evening dress features a dropped waist, mock neckline, and sleeveless silhouette—all in a rich berry hue.

The Office Ready Knit
A knit dress is always a good idea. Simkhai’s ribbed iteration, accented with a delicate white trim, makes a subtle yet striking statement. Add a knee-high boot, a sweeping opera coat, and a chic clutch.

The Little Black Dress
You know the LBD, you (we hope) love the LBD. Play with proportions to give it a fresh look: a long duster coat, statement brooch, and polished loafers toughen up its feminine spirit.

The Jacquard Shirtdress
This Tory Burch runway dress was an editor favorite. Cut from jacquard in a slate blue and cherry-check motif, the color combination creates an optical illusion of a rich purple hue (one of this season’s trending hues). Two versatile details make it especially wearable: Both the necktie and belt are removable. Complete the look with fall boots.
