Designers are embracing layered, cozy looks for fall/winter 2010 by incorporating wrap sweaters, striped shawls, and suede boots into outfits. Silhouettes from the 1950s-60s, like sheath dresses and full circle skirts, are also trendy. Military-inspired pieces such as jackets and textured sweaters are in style. Metallic prints and gold accents are adding luxury. Longer skirts and leather clothing are major trends, along with faux fur accents. Popular shoe trends include thigh high boots, clogs, socks with heels, and fur boots. Desired handbags include fur, framed, satchel, and cross-body styles.
2. More….is more Designers are taking a cover-up approach when it comes to clothing trends. As much as eight garments have been used in a single outfit. Wrap sweaters and skirts resemble hand-woven blankets and striped shawls are worn with cozy suede boots.
3. Lets take a step back in time… The silhouettes of the 1950s and 1960s are making a strong return, with shapes that accentuate curves and foster femininity. The look is versatile and fun. A hip-hugging sheath dress with a below-the-knee hem is the ultimate in hourglass dressing, while the full circle skirt and dress remain at the core of the trend.

Military-Inspired Fashion Military fashion as a trend is nothing new, But while fashion trends tend to burn out within a few years, the women's military fashion trend isn't going anywhere, though like all true fashion trends, in 2010 the military trend will evolve. Military-inspired jackets and vests, lace tops, such as slouchy and textured sweaters, are among the first to pack for a fall fashion journey.

7. Longer Skirts No longer are skirts skimpy short, designers have gone long for both day and night, turning out demure yet dramatic skirts that skim the upper shins, graze the ankles, or fall somewhere in between. This new trend looks great with easy-on-the-feet heels and flat-soled boots.
8. Leather It's no great secret that the humble leather jacket has become a wide-spread wardrobe staple over the last few Winters. As a fashion trend in 2010, however, women's leather clothing is being taken to a whole new level.
