The 21-Piece NYC Capsule Wardrobe for Fall
Whether you live in NYC, plan to visit, or simply appreciate and would like to emulate the city’s style, it’s worth knowing what the girls there will be wearing for the season ahead. After all, they are known for mastering the balance of fashion and functionality—and I’m not just saying that because I live there now.
Life in the city simply conditions you to reduce your wardrobe to only the essential items, forcing you to consider what’s truly wearable and what you could do without. Of course, the constant inspiration from stylish girls around you doesn’t hurt either. With this in mind, today we’ve taken a stab at creating the ultimate fall capsule wardrobe for New York City girls, or anyone looking to streamline their closet. From outerwear to footwear to the occasional wildcard and the top trends worth wearing, continue on to see and shop what items made the list.

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. It was a less expected route, seeing as she was graduating from business school at USC when this all began, but it has turned out to be the best one for her. Fast-forward to 2024, and she's moved to NYC from her hometown of Beverly Hills and spends her workdays a little differently from when she was an intern starting out. Currently, she focuses on a weekly mélange of shopping content. As far as her personal style goes, she's largely drawn to classic pieces and neutral basics but will always make an exception for something colorful, printed, or bejeweled as long as it's deemed worthy enough. After all, the only thing she loves more than a good party is dressing up for one. On weekdays, she can usually be found at home eating something delicious for dinner and trying to force her husband to watch Summer House.
