Perfect Your Fall Outfits With Madewell's New Collection

Owning basic garments that can live past a single season is invaluable. This idea of wardrobe longevity is exactly what inspired Madewell’s fall collection for 2023 – and it’s filled with pieces that simultaneously fit the mold and break from it, too. Deemed as “timeless styles” with “elevated and unexpected touches,” the shirts, jackets, vests, and jeans (and more!) included in the seasonal edit exist to fill the gaps in your closet (you know you have them) and top off each and every cozy fall outfit with poise.

The Madewell fall 2023 collection unapologetically embraces this year’s go-to fall fashion trends: preppy pieces, grays, and denim. However you choose to tailor the collection to your personal style, everything is easy to wear *and* easy to accessorize. See the best finds below to start building your dream fall wardrobe.
