If you want my opinion, autumn is fashion’s strongest season. It’s the point in the year when capsule wardrobes reset, silhouettes sharpen and layering becomes essential rather than optional. Personally, it’s also the season I feel most confident experimenting—it’s easier to be creative when you can play with structure, texture and proportion; summer just doesn’t equate to the versatility and variety that the colder months can bring to an outfit.
Because of this, we see more trends revive for autumn than any other season. While there are plenty of new ideas coming through, what feels most relevant right now are the trends we haven’t thought about for a while. Denim, boots, and jackets are all being refreshed with subtle but impactful shifts, bringing back familiar pieces that maybe didn’t feel as prevalent last autumn but are set to make a big impact for autumn 2025.
What are these trends, I hear you ask. I’ve taken stock of the autumn looks starting to trickle through and can confidently say these six are going to have noteworthy comebacks. Scroll on to see them and hear why they may just warrant a place in your wardrobe.
Chic Trends Making a Comeback for Autumn 2025
1. Tartan Shirts
Style Notes: Tartan is making a comeback in the form of shirts, but with a twist. Rather than being buttoned up, fashion people are turning their plaids into effortless accessories, tying them around the waist in place of a jumper, channelling a Nirvana-coded vibe that’s surprisingly modern.
