Fall 2026 Trends: Slouchy Denim, Animal Print & Crocodile Leather
Three trends have my full attention this fall: slouchy denim, animal print, and crocodile leather. Here's how Coco Goose is styling all three.
What's the Best Slouchy Denim for Fall 2026?
Denim is the easiest place to start, since a great pair anchors nearly every fall outfit. Forbes points to this season's shift toward relaxed, slouchy silhouettes, and our picks lean right into it. The Closed Tori-X Barrel Jeans in Mid Blue bring that distinctive curved leg with the brand's signature X-pockets, and the Closed Jayla Wide Jeans in Ivory offer a raw-hem, full-length silhouette that pairs beautifully with a sweater or blazer. See more in our Closed collection. I'm personally obsessed with the AGOLDE Lyndon Pant in Rinse right now. The dark wash feels tailored yet relaxed, and the way it puddles just slightly on the floor is the kind of detail I love in a pant. Shop more from the AGOLDE collection.
How Do You Wear Animal Print Without Overdoing It?
A statement animal print piece is all it takes to update a look. Who What Wear notes print is dominating the season across leopard, snake, and croc textures, and a small accessory is the simplest way in. The Clare V. Petit Moyen in Cocoa Pablo Cat is a mini messenger in soft Italian suede, just enough print against fall neutrals. Explore more from Clare V. The STAUD Goodnight Moon Bag in Leopard leans in more directly with its calf hair design and crescent shape, worn as a top handle or crossbody. Shop the STAUD collection for more.
Why Is Crocodile Leather the Texture of the Season?
And then there's crocodile, the texture I keep coming back to. Buyers covering the fall 2026 runways flagged croc-embossed and glossy textures as a top accessories trend, adding a sense of luxury to any look. W. Kleinberg's Hornback Crocodile Clutch is genuine croc with real dimension from the horn detail at the center, and the deep Forest shade elevates denim or a slip dress beautifully. The Veronica Beard Large Dash Tote in Black gives you the look in a croc-embossed everyday carryall, structured enough for workdays and weekends alike. See more from Veronica Beard.
