Fashion Trends for Fall: Big Shoulders, Even Bigger Coats and a Color Story to Dye For

Shoulders Wide Enough to Rival a Renaissance Painting

Power shoulders are back, and they mean business.

At Givenchy, Sarah Burton's debut delivered tailored coats with razor-sharp shoulders, softened only by impeccable drape. Victoria Beckham exaggerated the shoulder line on evening silhouettes, creating a statuesque effect. Loewe's Jonathan Anderson played with distorted proportions, adding surrealist twists to a commanding frame. And at Saint Laurent, Anthony Vaccarello took the idea to its purest form, distilling power into sculpted, precise shoulders that framed every silhouette like armor.

The message? Whether you're in a power suit or a party dress, take up space.
