Cris Herrmann at Chanel Couture FW2015
One of my favorite model-off-duty looks outside the couture shows in Paris. Model Cris Herrmann isn’t wearing anything particularly expensive but shows great personal style with a long red silk scarf tied once at the neck, oversize cloth bag and baggy (vintage?) jeans. Très chic.
Leaf Greener at Chanel Couture FW2015
Jeepers, creepers! We were all mesmerized by these Yazbukey x Linda Farrow sunglasses on Leaf Greener outside the Chanel couture show in Paris.
LeeLee Sobieski at Dior Couture FW2015
LeeLee Sobieski wore a white Dior dress and silk boots to the Dior couture show in Paris.
Araya Hargate at Chanel Couture FW2015
Actress Araya Hargate wowed at the Chanel couture show in an all-Chanel military look with a Napoleonic twist. Detail shot of the Chanel bag, jacket and skirt, after the jump. (more…)
Anya Ziourova at Chanel Couture FW2015
I am loving the chic take on utilitarian, garage-style jumpsuits on the streets now. Anya Ziourova wore a blue one by Rosie Assoulin to the Chanel couture show in Paris.
Nicole Warne at Dior Couture FW2015
Raf Simons’ tenure at Dior has been marked by the same bold color statements he employed at Jil Sander. Nicole Warne wore a brilliant saffron-colored silk Dior vest to the couture show in Paris. Look for longer hemlines in coats and vests come fall, as cropped jackets disappear in favor of a more flowing silhouette.
Maryna Kovaltchuk at Dior Couture FW2015
The coldest winter I ever spent was a summer in New York air conditioning. The solution: silk! A long silk dress like this one by Leonard Paris on Maryna Kovaltchuk moves beautifully from hot city streets to cold air conditioned spaces, keeping the wearer comfortable all the while.
Short Shorts: Vanessa Moody After Dior Couture FW2015
If you ever need inspiration to wear short shorts, just hang around a bunch of models in the summer – though of course, not all of us have legs like theirs. Vanessa Moody wore white denim shorts with a black top after the Dior show on a hot day in Paris.
Lorena Vergani at Schiaparelli FW2015
I guess it’s the prep in me, but I’m always a sucker for bright colored pants in the summer, like these bright pink ones seen on Lorena Vergani at the Schiaparelli couture show in Paris.
Leila Yavari at Kenzo FW2015
More black and white, this time on Stylebop’s Leila Yavari. This cut of this leather skirt is perfect for 2015 – slim but not quite a pencil cut, with an athletic-style gathered waist.
Tilda Lindstam at Dries Van Noten FW2015
One thing we noticed at this past weekend’s Frieze Art Fair was the rising popularity of vintage clothing, especially among a younger generation of women who want to stand out without breaking the bank. After walking the Dries Van Noten show in Paris, model Tilda Lindstam mixed a vintage-looking mini dress (that wouldn’t be out of place on Mad Men) with a black leather biker jacket and black patent loafers.
Crisp Whites: Christine Centenera at Dries Van Noten FW2015
Nothing says “summertime” like a crisp all white outfit. Christine Centenera was elegantly turned out in an optic white tunic layered over a white shirt and white slit maxi skirt at the Dries Van Noten show.
