Charles Ifergan’s Chic Picks for Effortless Style

Fall in Chicago is more than just cooler weather and golden leaves-it’s a season of effortless style. From strolling Oakbrook’s tree-lined streets to grabbing a coffee in Lincoln Park before heading to the office, autumn is the perfect time to refresh your wardrobe and your look. At Charles Ifergan Salons, Chicago’s best hair salon, we believe your hair should complement the season’s most exciting fashion trends, giving you confidence that feels polished, modern, and entirely your own.

Check out our favorite fall fashion trends, plus how to pair them with hair that makes every outfit feel complete.

Fall 2025 trends

Plaid

Plaid is having a major moment this fall in Chicago fashion, from cozy dresses to structured jackets. It’s versatile, timeless, and surprisingly chic when styled right. Pair a tailored plaid blazer with sleek waves or a smooth blowout for that “effortless professional” vibe-perfect for a Mag Mile client meeting or an Oakbrook dinner out.

This plaid dress can be dressed up or down and we would love to wear this with a leather jacket, tights and boots. Bonus points for being able to transition into our spring wardrobe as well.

A plaid jacket with a little edge? Yes please! We absolutely love the shape of this plaid jacket for fall.

Looking for something you can transition from work to play? A silk plaid shirt is the perfect way to incorporate a fall trend into workwear that can easily be dressed down with jeans as well.

Fall 2025 trends

Curved Lines

From barrel jeans to leather balloon pants, curved silhouettes are everywhere this fall. They flatter, elongate, and feel fresh-whether you’re shopping in Deerfield or meeting friends in Lincoln Park.

For hair, balance structured curves with something soft and modern: think loose curls, tousled layers, or a balayage with dimension that mirrors the subtle shape of your look.

Choose a dark pair from Gap that is especially budget friendly if you’re unsure about trying out this trendy style.

If you love curved pants and are willing to truly embrace the look, we are obsessed with this leather pair. These CO pair are Ultra luxurious, and leather is always a good idea in the fall.

We also love the seam detail on this curved denim that can be worn all year round.

Fall 2025 trends

Lingerie Dressing

The lingerie-inspired trend isn’t about being daring-it’s about bringing luxurious fabrics like silk and satin into your everyday wardrobe. A black silk top under a blazer or wide-leg satin pants with a chunky sweater is understated confidence at its best.

The hair pairing? Sleek, polished styling. A smooth blowout or low chignon from the best Chicago salon instantly makes silky textures wearable for day-to-night transitions.

A black silk going out top is a no brainer. Button this one a bit further down and throw a blazer over it to keep the lingerie trend intact but also make it a bit more wearable.

Silk and lace shorts are definitely a statement option, but we LOVE the way these look with a chunkier sweater on top. Tights and boots with a long jacket would complete this look for a fun women’s night out look.

The easiest and classiest way to embrace this trend is with a silk pant like this. These can be dressed up or down, which is a huge bonus, and we love the idea of pairing with a sweater for a casual look.

Fall 2025 trends

Animal Print

Animal print has never truly gone out of style, but this fall it’s everywhere in fresh, modern pieces. From leopard-print flats to statement jackets, the key is subtle integration.

Animal print loves hair that’s equally bold-whetherit’s a textured bob, a sleek pixie, or dimensional highlights that feel playful yet elevated.

A perfect pop of animal print in these Tory Burch flats.

While an animal print jacket seems like it would be a lot, the way this jacket looks and works like a neutral is the perfect piece to throw on over a t-shirt or light sweater and add some fun.

We LOVE the look of this bag that is relaxed and roomy- perfect for day, night, work- you name it!

Fall 2025 trends

Brown Suede

Move over black-this fall, it’s all about rich browns and suedes. From longline coats to double-breasted blazers, brown suede is the perfect neutral to ground your wardrobe.

For hair, warm tones are the perfect complement. A chestnut gloss or rich brunette balayage looks stunning
against suede textures and feels naturally aligned with autumn in Chicago.

This longer brown suede coat is super budget friendly and is so chic.

We love this brown bucket bag as an everyday bag this fall.

Double breasted suede blazer? Say no more. This blazer will go from work to casual and look so chic. Think jeans and a t-shirt with this for daytime look – perfection!
