There are certain items every season, from specific basics to of-the-moment trends, that, if you wear them, will make you look like a fashion person. They’re usually unexpected and controversial in some way (until suddenly, they’re not), and they’re always chic. Following their lead is always a good idea, and fortunately, one has recently popped up ahead of fall: V-neck tops. And guess who’s on board?
Kendall Jenner, who recently walked in the Khaite show during New York Fashion Week, was spotted in the fashion capital wearing a black, sleeveless top and knee-length skirt from the same brand, as well as flip-flops and a woven bag from The Row. Normally, we’d expect a stylish person like Jenner to wear a crewneck, and if not, a scoop or boat neck. But in 2025, and specifically this fall, that wasn’t the case. Instead, her simple, fitted top featured a high, snug V-neck.

Only adding to their appeal were the dozens of other NYFW attendees who also styled V-neck tops to shows this season. From sweaters to T-shirts, everyone cool in the city right now is side-stepping crewnecks for V-neck alternatives this fall. For proof, keep scrolling.
