Fashion trends for 2026 and 2027 highlight plaid and funnel necks

Recent fashion weeks in major cities such as Milan, Paris, and Copenhagen have highlighted emerging trends for the upcoming seasons.

One prominent trend for Autumn 2026 is the resurgence of various plaid and check patterns. This includes styles such as tartan, houndstooth, glen check, argyle, and vichy. Historically, these patterns have evolved from symbols of Scottish clans to punk icons popularized by Vivienne Westwood.

Another significant trend identified for 2026 and 2027 is the prominence of high, structured collars, specifically the funnel neck. Observed on runways from designers like Jacquemus and William Fan, these collars appear on jackets, blouses, and sweaters, offering a minimalist and elegant aesthetic that can be styled with simple pieces like jeans or wide-leg trousers.
