During this season’s New York Fashion week Spring/Summer 2025 shows, the energy was palpable. Fashion editors, stylists, and celebrities traveled across the city to witness all that New York has to offer, from Alaïa’s unforgettable homecoming to New York at the Guggenheim to Ib Kamara’s first Off-White show in Brooklyn to Phillip Lim’s twentieth anniversary show.
Among the sea of showgoers, certain trends emerged—and they’re now inspiring our shopping. Tailored pieces, like crisp shirting, oversized blazers, and sleek trousers, were everywhere. The popular capri pants trend continued to ripple through the fashion crowd, showing its staying power. There were also some who took advantage of cooler temperatures this fashion week, opting to lean into fall/winter dressing, sported leather jackets, trousers and statement coats with white tees.
Ahead, shop our edit of the best street-style looks to serve as inspiration for your own wardrobe this season and beyond.

While fall hasn’t officially begun yet, take advantage of the transitional season by pairing your classic trouser with a bright pop of color, like this kelly green shirt. Style it with a sleek shoulder bag and pair of shades and you’re good to go.

Nordstrom’s VP of Fashion Rickie De Sole shows how to add a little drama to a plain white tee: by styling it with a statement pair of trousers, here in a pair by Undercover. A sweater over her shoulders (yes, it’s a trend!) adds a bit of visual interest without looking too busy.
