Hot and humid summer is finally over (or at least soon it will be.) From the beginning of August, clothing stores began to present fall collections. If you’re still catching up with fashion trends, here is the summary of 2019 fall and winter fashion trends in K-Beauty market. Even though this summary is based on the K-Beauty market, its base is also from the global trends, therefore, you might say this summary is global 2019 fall and winter fashion guidelines.
1.Newtro style
First off, you will hear a lot about “Newtro” in 2019 FW fashion trends. What is “Newtro”? It means “new” plus “retro”. Even young generations who have not been born in the 1980s have a big interest in retro fashion. In other words, fashion trends from the ’80s or ’90s. The main difference is that they not only pursue old style but make it look more like modern.
As an example, if you wear old-style outerwear, you will mix it with modern clothes. Or you could simply use modern accessories such as jewelry or watches along with old-style clothes.

2.Romantic style
In the Seoul fashion week 2019 (at DDP), a lot of Korean designers introduced romantic style clothes. Large lace, ribbon, frills or ruffled clothes were quite popular. In some cases, they use huge ribbon or ruffle on a dress.

3. Animal print
Animal print is going to be very popular this season. Note that they are not animal skin-based clothes. They are clothes with animal print.
4. Checkered pattern clothes
I am also a big fan of checkered pattern clothes. Luckily this is going to be a popular fashion trend this fall. The checkered pattern makes a classic look and feel. So this means a classical design is back in business.

Check out this magazine from Allure Korea edition, it picks popular topics targeted for the K-Beauty market. The editor picked a checkered pattern as a hot fashion keyword this season.

5. Minimalism
Minimalism became a very popular lifestyle in S. Korea. But evidently, it became a hot keyword in fashion trends. All back tops and bottoms or grey, beige color style is going to be popular. In other words, unlike a colorful look, a monochrome look will be fashion trends this fall.

6. All leather clothes
Both tops and bottoms, all leather clothes will be popular.
Note that you can mix a number of styles from the above guidelines. I hope 2019 fall and winter fashion guidelines are helpful to you. Don’t forget to try colored contacts lens to complete your fashion style!
