The Top 6 Trends People Actually Bought in 2018
Don’t you want to know? We did too. So, when we recently had the chance to chat with Shopbop Fashion Director Caroline Maguire at the company’s epic holiday party this week, we couldn’t help but ask: What trends did people buy a lot of this year? As it turns out, many of the same pieces we here atBest Knockoff Luxury Clothing loved were the ones everyone else did too! From embellished accessories to fun faux-fur coats, it really was a good year for statement pieces in fashion but, of course, some reemerged classics as well. With such good iterations of all of them from our favorite brands, I have a feeling they’ll be sticking around for a few more seasons, too.
If you want to see and shop all six of the trends for yourself before the year comes to an end—or they sell out!—just keep scrolling.
Plush Coats
Especially in faux fur and bright, bold colors.
Western Boots
These have been trending for three seasons straight, and we don't see them going away any time soon.
Check Patterns
Think: tartan, plaid, and houndstooth.
Belt Bags
Another cross-season trend that seems to be sticking around for a while.
Statement Knits
Chunky weaves, bright colors, and more.
Diamanté Accessories
A fancy term for all the crystal-embellished pieces we're loving right now!

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.
