Over the last year, we’ve seen maximalism take center stage—trumping minimalism, moderation or any other kind of aesthetic balance. Instead of paring down, we layered on. We combined textures, mixed and matched prints, and played with silhouettes. And a handful of 2019 clothing trends promise to keep this aesthetic complexity going for a little while longer. Among them? Patchwork clothes.

The word “patchwork” isn’t something you’d traditionally associate with fashion. It summons imagery of homemade quilts and squares of fabric haphazardly sewn over holes in worn-down jeans—items that don’t feel particularly luxurious or elegant, let alone high-fashion. But at September’s New York Fashion Week, designers like Alice + Olivia, Diane Von Furstenberg and Libertine took patchwork clothes and elevated them, cementing patchwork’s place in the realm of 2019 fashion trends.
Now, myriad patchwork options have hit the market, trickling down from designers into fast-fashion retailers. Whether you’re looking for a patchwork coat that screams maximalist glam or a patchwork teddy jacket that feels a little edgier than the classic iterations you’ve seen everywhere, you’re sure to find it—and a whole lot more. Did you know patchwork shoes were a thing? We didn’t either, but given patchwork’s bona fide 2019 fashion trend situation, we can’t say we’re surprised.
