The perfect fabric to sport to ease into cooler months? Suede. This coming fall season, it's the textile of choice. Just appreciate its attributes: it has the look and feel of a heavy fabric but the breathability of a lighter material, it has serious rock and roll fashion cred (think: Stevie Nicks) and there's something about the texture that pairs perfectly with your retro denim. Copy Olivia Palermo (pictured above) for example and tap into the '70s trend by accenting suede with layers in similar rust shades. From suede heeled boots to a sexy patchwork mini, add a touch of luxe with our picks that will have per-sueded to try out the textile for fall.
