The month's other notable fashion picks include celebrity sneaker and heritage denim popups along with patriotic clothing lines that commemorate the recent Olympic games in Rio. Additionally, these September 2016 fashion trends also include accessory innovations like masked menswear editorials as well as circuit board jewelry collections that make use of materials that would otherwise be discarded.
