Fashion month has officially come to an end—and as we continue to sift through the fall 2023 shows, there's one reigning trend that we can't help but notice: everyday dressing. It's as if the designers created their new collections with the modern woman top of mind—a true representation of how she really likes to dress and on an everyday basis. These chic, yet casual outfits were centered around a solid foundation of wardrobe essentials, like timeless trench coats, menswear-inspired tailoring, and a perfect pair of leggings or two. This fuss-free fashion formula is one we’ve also seen modeled on the street style as of late, and clearly, the runways have now followed suit.

At Milan Fashion Week, Gucci showed only its second collection since former creative director Alessandro Michele's departure from the brand. Down the runway came looks that exuded elegance and ease—think oversized blazers paired with baggy jeans and sleek shirting styled with penny loafers. To our benefit, these everyday outfit formulas are almost too easy to replicate. Plus, you probably already have a few of these pieces tucked away in your drawers already. At Miu Miu FW23, model off-duty style was on full display. The pièce de résistance, however, was a pair of slate gray leggings that came layered below a roomy pea coat, a cozy cashmere crewneck, and a zip-up hoodie. You’ve heard it here first folks, this is your new weekend wardrobe. Tory Burch's FW23 collection was more tailored than ever before and the look on everyone's hearts and minds starred a cherry-red sweater that popped the perfect amount of color. Styled over a crisp striped button-up and pleated pants, the end result requires your recreation. And because it is fashion we’re obsessed with, after all, there are still those culty, yet classic buys we can never seem to resist–whether it's a jean midi skirt as seen at Victoria Beckham or Bottega Veneta's on-trend tank top.

You don't have to wait until next season to sport the latest trends. Here, shop nine casual outfits as seen on the fall runways.

At Gucci FW23, looks came down the runway exuding elegance and ease. Here, the look was anchored by an oversized trench coat, layered atop a crisp button-up shirt and a wide-leg jean. This collection also marked the return of the brand's signature Marmont belt. A menswear-inspired loafer and a sleek shoulder bag finished the look off to pared-back perfection.

Let us introduce you to your new weekend wardrobe inspired by the Miu Miu FW23 runway. While a pair of slate grey leggings are the pièce de résistance, other items in this casual outfit are just as irresistible. Atop the leggings, layer a roomy pea coat, a cozy cashmere crewneck, and a zip-up hoodie. From the brand's collaboration with New Balance, a stylish pair of sneakers seals the deal.

When a cherry-red sweater made its way down the Tory Burch FW23 runway, it captured the hearts and minds of fashion insiders. Now, the look can be all yours. Per the show, style the colorful crewneck over a crisp stripe button-up and a pair of pleated pants. Meanwhile, the brand's loafer-like ballet flats are the star of the season.

Navigating the winter-to-spring season can be a feat for your wardrobe, which is where transitional style staples come into play. As seen at Nili Lotan FW23, a camel coat is the only item to invest in during this tricky time. Underneath, sleek style essentials like a silky satin shirt and a lived-in pair of denim. Accessory-wise, elements of shine take the look from day to night seamlessly.

And because it is fashion we’re obsessed with, after all, there are still those culty, yet classic buys we can never seem to resist, like this jean midi skirt as seen at Victoria Beckham FW23. Styling-wise, keep it simple with a chunky turtleneck sweater, little black booties, and gold jewels. Beckham's leather shoulder bag ties the ever-so-casual outfit together.

Another irresistible trend we can't get enough of? The plain white tank top, exhibited again at Bottega Veneta FW23. Styled with the brand's straight-leg jeans, this cool, yet casual look levels up with a baby pink button-up tied effortlessly around the waist. Topped off with a simple sandal and silver drop earrings, this ensemble embodies everyday elegance.

Leave it to Proenza Schouler to craft the chicest modern working wardrobe possible. Recreate the look by pairing the brand's wool blazer atop a luxe leather midi skirt and crisp button-up shirt. In the ultimate styling hack, a minimalist leather belt helps create a flattering cinched silhouette. Anything-but-basic black boots add some height to the ensemble.

Another Gucci look to master is this menswear-inspired moment, starring an oversized beige blazer and baggy jeans. Accessory-wise, the moment continues with a brown suede loafer, square-framed sunglasses, and the brand's interlocking GG Blondie belt.

Call it the Miuccia effect—a gray palette cleansing sweater is the ultimate springtime staple. As seen on the Prada FW23 runway, style the cozy crewneck with a clean-lined maxi skirt and little white accessories to match.
