Every season, new prints come into play. For Fall 2026<\/a>, there\u2019s seemingly more variety available than ever \u2014 so we got some advice on wearing them from celebrity stylist Micaela Erlanger<\/a>. After a busy year dressing stars like Meryl Streep<\/a> and Lupita Nyong\u2019o, Erlanger has identified five key patterns that everyone should know going into the next several months. Just like our predictions and observations from Fashion Month in February, there\u2019s a wide range that can suit any taste \u2014 and they\u2019re especially versatile, too.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnimal print is dominating accessories and outerwear for Fall 2026,\u201d Erlanger tells TZR. \u201cIt functions less as a loud statement print and more as a warm, rich neutral that anchors dark luxury palettes.\u201d After browsing some of our favorite sites, leopard and python patterns are clearly running rampant through various designer collections. They\u2019re also joined by dark floral patterns (think the controversial noughties<\/a>), setting the tone for a restless and statement-making season. On the subtler side, contrasting polka dots and traditional plaids and checks have found a renewed life in ready-to-wear, too.<\/p>\n

One surprising shift is the rise of abstract patterns, like the painterly brushstrokes and splotches that Erlanger saw from labels like Proenza Schouler<\/a> and Loewe. Along with the above, it displays a shift towards a more artistic way of living day to day. \u201cClean, geometric shapes and abstract optical prints are leading statement dressing for Fall 2026,\u201d Erlanger says, noting they \u201cact as instant focal points\u201d and let a piece\u2019s shape \u201cremain sharp and architectural.\u201d<\/p>\n

As autumn leaves begin to drop, there\u2019s no better time to explore the vast array of patterns that are trending right now. Below, Erlanger dives deeper into the most popular prints this season \u2014 and, of course, the best ways to wear them.<\/p>\n

Leopard spots and dark-colored python scales are two of the season\u2019s biggest patterns, which Erlanger says can act as \u201cneutrals,\u201d as shown on the runway by Saint Laurent, Carolina Herrera, and Jacquemus. \u201cEvery fall wardrobe needs a hero piece,\u2019 Erlanger says. \u201cThrow a structured leopard calf-hair coat over an all-black cashmere look, or use it as a punctuation mark via a dark python structured handbag or sleek kitten-heel pump.\u201d<\/p>\n
