It's officially undeniable. It's already 16th of March, the cooler weather has made its seasonal debut, and in doing so, heralded the arrival of a plethora of fresh fashion trends for autumn/winter 2020.

And while we never thought we'd ever say it, after observing the many sumptuous styling trends to take to both the streets and the runways at fashion month, we're rather thrilled about summer fashion taking its well-timed bow and exiting stage left.

From fierce fringing to Prada's frayed, draped skirts to JW Anderson's ultra-covetable accessories, there was certainly no shortage of fashion to fawn over.

Having said that, navigating and separating which pieces you should invest in (and which ones to simply admire from afar) is a whole other story.

So, to help you do exactly that, we called upon ELLE market editor Samantha Wong to share her top picks for the all the trends worth taking home.

Scroll on to see them all.

Flats With... Anything

"Even the most extravagant of dresses can be worn with a flat. Choose a pair in a pastel colour and adorn your ankle for full effect," said Wong.

Playing With Proportion

"A crop top paired with a knee-length skirt and cropped sleeve jacket (think: this playful pink look at Marc Jacobs) is balanced perfectly with mid-calf boots," said Wong.

Ponchos

"Oversized check ponchos balanced with skin-tight knitwear made a statement at Dior. Finish off the look with a wide headband tied across the forehead," said Wong.
