To Some, These Fall Trends Are "Ugly," But To Us, They're Incredibly Cool

If there's anything that Miu Miu's latest runway collections have taught us, it's that there's no shortage of "ugly" fashion trends this season. (We're all still thinking about those librarian-inspired looks here atBest Knockoff Luxury Clothing .) A reminder to all: "ugly" trends are not in fact, ugly, but describe designs that are out of the ordinary yet define what's cool for those in the know. They may be questionable to the general public and haters will continue hating, but we will continue wearing them because fashion is about rejecting societal norms of what's deemed flattering anyway, right?

"Ugly" trends are cyclical. Some of them last a short time span, but some end up having more staying power than you'd think. Despite these unique trends facing the "ugly" adjective, they're being worn both ironically and unironically by the fashion set. Take a look at the list below and decide what piques your interest. Keep scrolling to add a little dose of uniqueness to your wardrobe this season.

Wide-leg jeans continue to be popular, but it's the barrel-leg fit that has the fashion set buzzing right now. Whether you want to go full horse-shoe silhouette or keep it subtle, there are plenty of options on the market for your consideration.

Studded Embellishments

If you were on Tumblr, you'd remember when everyone was adding studs to their denim shorts and jeans. And before that, Y2K was filled with celebrities wearing embellished jeans. Well, the style is back for 2023, but it's being done in a whole new way. 

"Hairy" Knits

If you already have a solid selection of classic sweaters you rely on, a statement sweater like the ones below is a nice addition to mix things up. This knitwear trend may not be for everyone, but you have to admit, it's impeccably cool.

Track Pants

Track pants aren't just for going on a run or playing soccer anymore. Master the comfortable yet elevated look by pairing them with a polished blazer or jacket. 

Mesh Shoes

In the walls of the fashion world, metallic accessories are the *it* trend. Outside the walls? Not so much. But don't let that keep you from adding a pop of chrome or silver to your look—we're considering it the new neutral. 

Athletic Sneakers
