The season’s biggest New York Fashion Week street style trends are packed with shopping inspiration. The spring-summer 2026 shows have wrapped, and as always, the runways are ripe with outfit ideas for the months ahead. But we can’t overlook the sartorial action happening outside the venues. New York’s style is inherently bold and playful, and the attendees this season matched that energy. In Manhattan (and occasionally Brooklyn), the street style scene’s celebrities, editors, buyers, stylists, and influencers have put their own stamp on fall’s hottest trends.
Voluminous balloon pants, for instance, popularized on Alaïa’s last runway, are now sashaying up and down the sidewalks. Playful, attention-grabbing accessories—like pillbox hats, a silhouette popularized by Jackie Kennedy—are the name of the game too. Okay, no more spoilers! Keep scrolling for a breakdown of the five buzziest New York Fashion Week street style trends that are already taking over among fashion insiders. (Don’t be surprised if you spot these looks all over social media in the coming months.)
Glamour’s NYFW street-style trends wish list
1. Cropped jackets

When it comes to popular fall jackets, the pendulum is swinging toward cropped silhouettes, as proven by Fashion Week guests. Sure, come snowy weather, they may not be the most practical option—but for the next few months, the look is sure to stand out in a sea of ankle-grazing dusters. On the streets we spotted midriff-baring denim jackets, cropped black blazers, and shrunken trenches. For a quintessential fall look, try a cropped jacket rendered in leather or suede. And as temperatures cool, layer your jacket under something longer for double the impact.
