New York Fashion Week is so close, we can practically feel the cobblestones under our feet, and we can't wait to see what the world's top designers have in store for Fall/Winter 2018. While we might not know what will be walking the runways of New York, London, Milan, and Paris, we can try to predict what stylish attendees will be spotted in as they head to back-to-back shows.
Based on what we've seen in between the Menswear and Couture shows happening in Europe, there's just as much sartorial inspiration coming from outside the shows as there is inside. In particular, there were a few standout trends that we saw on multiple members of the fashion pack that we're sure will carry over to the streets of NYFW.
From "ugly" sneakers to futuristic sunglasses, read through to see our predictions for the 11 It pieces we expect street style stars to be wearing this upcoming Fashion Month. Plus, shop our picks so you can stay ahead of the curve!
