59 Items for Fall: The Essential Wardrobe Shopping List for Building Your Fall 2023 Wardrobe

I have to admit… putting together and maintaining a wardrobe year-round is not exactly the easiest task. To your average shopper, it may seem simple, but there is a reason you’ve landed on Excluded Fashion and it’s probably because shopping has never felt easy for your unique body type.

Between putting together the infamous capsule wardrobe, statement pieces, and everything in between, there are a ton of things to consider before spending even a dollar of your hard-earned money. For some of us, it’s “are those pants actually long enough for me?” For others, it’s “Do they even carry the size I need” and those questions always come before style.

Now factor in seasonality and the transition between seasons and boom, you’re so overwhelmed with the feat of filling your wardrobe you may not even try and thus, the cycle of lowered confidence continues season after season.

Well… those days are OVER! I created Excluded Fashion for this very reason and it’s for all women to enjoy the shopping experience and get tailored product recommendations specifically for your body type by women just like you - making shopping quick, easy, and inclusive.

While we are entering the fall season, I wanted to simplify this process even further for you all. Below I put together the all-inclusive essential shopping list for fall; a shopping list for women of all shapes and sizes to serve as your cheat sheet to serve you well throughout the entire fall season.

The pieces I’ve listed below include a mix of statement and trending pieces for fall, go-to pieces for everyday wear during fall, and capsule wardrobe items that will transition between seasons, summer to fall AND fall to winter. The product recommendations I’ve listed below are also from some of the most inclusive brands on the market at the moment. That way no matter if you’re tall, petite, curvy, plus, or somewhere in between, you will be able to find something that fits you from the brands below.

It’s truly a list for all!

Save this as a reference for when you’re potentially shopping in stores or reading other articles from our roster of incredibly talented and diverse women. And if you’re struggling to figure out which piece will give you the most bang for your buck, you have the essential shopping checklist right here to inform your decisions.
