Paris Fashion Week never disappoints. The most coveted streetwear styles worn by today’s trendsetters are eagerly anticipated. This week, Zalando highlights three unmissable trends straight from the fashion capital. Paris Fashion Week has set the directions for the new season, and these trends are already making waves. From gothic romance to delicate pastels and spectacular faux fur, these are the looks that define fashion conversations.

Castlecore
It reigned supreme, bringing a dark romantic air to the streets of Paris, blending medieval fantasy with modern life. From dramatic all-black outfits to delicate lace blouses, seemingly plucked from a gothic fairy tale, fashion insiders have created looks that are both rebellious and carefully styled. Whether as a shield against reality or pure escapism, searches for Castlecore have increased by 200%. Since its premiere in January, the movie Nosferatu has contributed to this surge of interest, leading to a 475% increase in searches on Zalando.

Pastel Colors
Paint a dreamy picture this season, paving the way for spring. With a 71% increase in searches for pastel shades, style experts who have mixed complementary tones have offered a delicate yet powerful fashion statement. This ethereal look has been adopted by names like Doechii, Neneh Cherry, and Gemma Chan.

Faux Fur
It has stolen the spotlight—the bulkier, the better. With an increase of over 2000% in searches for faux fur jackets, the boldest fashion lovers have amplified the season’s maximalist energy with oversized and textured pieces.
