Pump up the volume
With all of the Fall ’12 trends that I’ve talked about thus far, there is one that I’ve completely overlooked – the voluminous/oversized trend. To be completely honest, I wasn’t a fan at first. But after taking a closer look, I can appreciate the tailored, menswear inspired looks – which remind me of the 80’s, but with an edgy and modern look. Designers such as Stella McCartney, Celine, and Balenciaga are just a few designers that have supersized their Fall 2012 collections.

Transforming runway trends into everyday wear can be a little challenging, but take a peek at how some of these fashion forward ladies are rocking this Fall’s voluminous trend – it just might inspire you to go out and buy a slouchy pair of trousers or an oversized coat.
The voluminous trend can be especially tricky – if the proportions aren’t right, you will end up looking frumpy. Opt for an oversized coat and pair with ultra skinny denim or a pencil skirt for a minimal take on the trend. Another great option for easing your way into this trend would be a pair of slouchy trousers paired with your favorite v-neck and a killer heel. Keep your overall look clean and simple – you’ll find how comfortable and easy it is to pull off one of Fall’s hottest trends!
