8 Fall Trends NYC Girls Are Actually Wearing
Over the last few months, we've done a lot of guessing—albeit educated guessing—about what fashion people worldwide will be wearing this fall. We were pretty spot-on, but there are always trends (and even micro-trends) that only come out or blow up even more than expected once a season starts.

Skirt Suits

Posh Sets
Olivia Rodrigo vibes, anyone?
Matching Knits

Since starting as an intern back in 2013, Nicole Akhtarzad Eshaghpour has held several roles here atBest Knockoff Luxury Clothing , and she is currently Editor-at-Large. Upon joining, she was a senior about to graduate from business school at USC. Fast-forward to 2025, and she's moved to NYC from her hometown of Beverly Hills and spends her workdays a little differently from when she was just starting out. Currently, she focuses on a weekly mélange of shopping content and her Trust Me—Buy This newsletter. As far as her personal style goes, she's largely drawn to neutral, classic pieces but will always make an exception for something colorful or bejeweled as long as it's deemed worthy enough. After all, the only thing she loves more than a party is dressing up for one. On her downtime, she can usually be found at home eating something delicious and trying to force her husband to watch Summer House.
