02 Oct 3 Ways To Wear The Equestrian Trend

The Equestrian trend is taking a modern turn this fall, and there’s more than one way to wear it.

Classic riding-inspired details are making their way into everyday wardrobes, but with a more modern point of view. Rather than looking like you’re headed straight to the stables, the trend is about taking those timeless elements and making them feel fresh, polished, and wearable for everyday life.

The goal? Borrow the details, not the entire look. Here are 3 easy ways to add this new fall trend to your closet:

01. The Modern Motif

Let the horse motif make the statement.

Horse-inspired prints and motifs are getting a more modern treatment this season. Instead of pairing them with other equestrian details, layer them with simple neutrals to keep the look polished and understated.

Stylist tip: Let one equestrian-inspired piece stand out while the rest of the outfit keeps things clean and modern.

Try This: A horse-motif sweater with tailored trousers, dark denim, or textured skirt with a simple neutral coat.

02. The Texture Mix

This is where the equestrian trend gets its modern edge. Mix classic fabrics like herringbone, cable knit, suede, and wool to create dimension without leaning too heavily into the theme.

Add a subtle buckle or structured accessory to bring in that equestrian influence.

Style it: You don’t need an obvious equestrian print. Sometimes the textures and details do all the work.

Try This: A cable-knit sweater layered with herringbone, paired with suede boots or a belt with a classic buckle.

03. The Subtle Nod

Not ready to ride the trend all the way? Start with the details.

You can embrace equestrian style without changing your entire wardrobe. Look for accessories with buckles, horse-bit hardware, or subtle riding-inspired details.

And when in doubt, add a flat riding boot to a simple fall outfit. It’s an easy way to bring the trend into your wardrobe without making it feel like you’re headed straight to the stables.

Style it: One well-chosen accessory can be enough.

Try This: Your favorite jeans, a simple sweater, a structured bag, and a flat riding boot.

The Stylist Tip

The modern equestrian trend isn’t about dressing for the stables. It’s about taking the timeless details you love and making them feel like you.

Choose your level: a statement motif, a mix of rich textures, or just one subtle detail.
