Few patterns are as synonymous with fall fashion as plaid. The classic print has become a cold-weather wardrobe staple, one that everyone can get on board with. We do mean everyone: The current plaid clothing and accessory offerings range from tailored blazers to playful headbands, with checks of all sizes and hues. Meaning? There’s an option for you.

The plaid shirts, skirts, outerwear, dresses, scarves and more that are out now will for sure have you looking at the classic print with fresh eyes. A plaid statement coat gives any outfit an upgrade. A plaid mini skirt is totally mod, while a ruffled plaid puff-sleeve dress–with combat boots, of course–feels rebel punk-chic. In other words, this season there’s a checked piece that’s gonna work in your wardrobe, no matter your vibe.

Truth be told, we’ve always been amazed by the versatility of this particular pattern. Plaid can look western-chic, grunge-cool, polished-preppy, and even sexy. Now, with what feels like more silhouettes available than ever before, there are plaid outfit options for everyone!
