Leave it to the Copenhagen street style scene to inspire our transitional fall wardrobes. Just last week editors and fashion girls alike crowded the streets in looks that were lightweight yet fall-coded, sporting labels we know and love. Dressing for the city’s fluctuating temperatures, which range from sunny and 65° one day to a steamy sauna the next, is no easy feat. Luckily, this chic crowd came prepared, sporting strong transitional outerwear offerings, from sporty blousons to cropped trench coats and stylish leather bombers. Consider the blow outfit solutions a prime lesson in layering for the months, ahead—and a taste of the fall fashion trends you’ll soon be seeing everywhere.

A classic trench coat is a forever transitional staple; the modern take is cropped and swingy. This showgoer pairs hers with an easy maxi dress, a straw bag, and an of-the-moment scarf slung at the waist. Leather loafers complete the look.

From Trend to Seasonal Essential, Try a Sporty Zip
