Every Dress and Skirt Will Look Cooler With This Anti-Boring Fall Accessory Trend

By Swedan MargenOctober 8, 2025

I’m not much of a dress or skirt wearer to begin with, but this year has been the year I’ve worn them the most. I’m all for simple outfits, but lately I’ve grown quite bored with wearing a skirt or dress. That is, until I saw what Lily-Rose Depp just wore to the Chanel S/S 26 runway show, which was a skirt set with an unexpected, anti-boring fall accessory trend: patterned tights.

Her outfit was the perfect balance of whimsical and chic. Her navy Chanel suit was styled with diamond-print black-and-white tights and a pair of black pumps, and a small baby blue shoulder bag. The tights were the star of her outfit, and it was such an interesting styling trick to make them the focal point. This styling trick was done several times on the F/W ‘25 runways of Valentino, Acne Studios, Isabel Marant, and more. The models wore patterned tights, adding an eclectic twist to the high-fashion outfits. After seeing this look, I’m definitely wearing patterned tights with my dresses and skirts this fall and winter. I’m over being boring, and you’re never too old to wear a fun outfit.
