Living in Florida, we may not get to enjoy the colorful leaves, or even the notable drop in temperature. However, the change in season still means a change in wardrobe. So, don’t worry, fall fashion is still present on campus—but do the trends seen at school reflect the trends up north? 

Living under a school dress code means putting a unique twist on fashion trends and using clothes to help express one’s identity even more so. This means that while the denim trend may not be present, students are bringing a new angle to other statements like the maxi skirt. Let’s take a look. 

#1. Country-House Chic

This style, according to Glamour, is “Fall’s most alluring trend,” consisting of plaid and more plaid. The idea is to look like a vacationer in the English Countryside. Bolles students, especially boys, have been far ahead of designers with this one because the dress code lends itself so well to long-sleeved plaid button downs. 

#2. Sweaters

This is a broad one, but it is a Fall staple. Oversized sweaters in all colors are possibly the favorite trend this year. They go with everything and are just comfy. The inclusivity of this trend makes it all the more fun. Around campus, you’ll find sweaters in all different patterns and cuts.  

#3. Dark Cherry red

This may be the trend that is the most universally agreed upon by designer labels this year. Everywhere you look are pops of that burgundy red. From the TikTok viral Clinique Black Honey Almost Lipstick to sweaters in this hue, it may be the color of the season. 

#4. Brown and Orange Sweatshirts 

It’s simple enough—plain and college sweatshirts in brown and orange shades have increased in popularity among students in the past two months. These two colors are of course, classic for Fall and coincidentally, many popular colleges’ use these same colors in their merchandise like Brown University, Auburn University, Clemson University, and Virginia Tech.
