Floral embroidery has emerged as a strong trend for Fall/Winter 2025, bringing a pretty, ’70s folksy charm to everything from billowy designer suits at Brunello Cuccinelli to Parisian boho basics at Sézanne. Across runways and street style, designers have fused high-art techniques and tactile textures to turn clothing into wearable gardens. Think sophisticated autumnal blooms: rich hues, deeper palettes, and antique-inspired florals on cozy tapestry-like fabrics. Floral embroidery for fall 2025 is about texture, dimensional craft, and unexpected materials transforming coats, denim, and silk into statements. Whether you’re taking cues from Valentino’s couture richness or layering denim jackets and embroidered trenches, this floral trend is worth picking.
HOW TO STYLE FLORAL EMBROIDERED PIECES
Dua Lipa stepped out casually in Gucci’s vibrant orange midi lace skirt, with 3D floral beading and sequins trimmed in metallic accessories – fearless, wearable embroidery in motion capturing the exuberance and detail the brand is known for.
A floral-embroidered trench coat in a moody tone is ideal paired with suede, denim, and 1970s-style heeled leather boots.
Embroidered tops with flutter or cross-stitch sleeves – as seen in Karen Kane’s organic cotton styles and Nordstrom’s collection – mix affordability with artistic detail and are perfect with this season’s flared denim.
Barn jackets with floral motifs or folk embroidery offer sturdy outerwear with garden edges. Celebrity stylist Rachel Zoe’s The Zoe Report has flagged floral embroidered long-sleeve outerwear as key fall investment pieces.

Valentino showed the season how mastery meets metaphor: a floor-length black velvet coat stitched with goldwork bullion, raffia, metal wire, and beads forming sculptural florals; sheer mesh tops glimmering with pastel bead embroidery; and a lilac tulle gown built from vertical crystal and sequin lines punctuated by floral clusters.
On Carolina Herrera’s runway, floral lurex jacquard sculpted column gowns and pencil skirts; gold bullion tulip embroidery added refined shimmer – elegance in stitch and silhouette in a grey virgin wool cape.
Chanel’s Fall-Winter 2025/26 Haute Couture blended tradition and pastoral romance: multicoloured floral embroidery adorned pea coats and satin crêpe pinafore dresses, weaving in wheat-ears and camellia appliqués to echo Gabrielle Chanel’s botanical symbolism. As is traditional for the French fashion house, a bride with an embroidered veil closed the show.
