A Sprinkle Of Street Style

Blazer, Prada. Bodysuit, Dolce & Gabbana. Shirt; earring with gemstones, H&M. Earring, Hermès. Rings, Swarovski. Sneakers, Converse. Socks, stylist’s own

The pantless trend is all the rage in fashion at the moment, and a sensuous bodysuit lets you pull off the no-pants look in style. Of course, balance is the key to a perfect outfit – incorporate nods of street style with a pair of worn-in high tops and an oversized leather blazer. Last but not least, add a pair of earrings of differing lengths for a little edginess and you’re ready to paint the town red. 

A Dash Of Drama

Dress, Versace. Necklace, Dior. Gloves; t-shirt, stylist’s own

The perfect rave attire is equal parts comfort and glamour. Shake up a casual t-shirt with an embellished party frock layered atop, your favourite necklace and style the outfit with a pair of black elbow-length gloves to elevate the look with a sense of mystery.

A Fuzzy Touch

Coat; jacket; top, Loro Piana

Those chasing the cool fall weather on the other side of the world in the coming months should invest in outerwear that won’t just keep you warm but look effortlessly chic while serving its purpose. Gear up with closet staples such as a knitted top contrasted with a khaki jacket lined with the softest shearling.

The Art Of Layering

Sweater (worn over shoulders), Longchamp. Top, H&M. Bra; skirt, Dior

Three words: layer, layer and layer. Mix up the texture of a ruched tulle top with a poofy ink-blotched printed skirt and accessorise with a patchwork sweater draped on your shoulders, a pair of mismatched earrings, and an umbrella just for the fun of it. After all, fashion need not be treated seriously 24/7.

All That Glitters Is Red

Cardigan; top; skirt, earring, Hermès. Boots, Dior. Earring, H&M

Red is one of fall/winter 2023’s biggest trends. If you’re looking to spice up your wardrobe this season, try wearing the statement hue by mixing textures. Throw on a metallic knit, a pleated skirt of a slightly different hue and a pair of boots embellished with gems. Complete the look with scintillating drop earrings to match the waist belt.

Coordination Is Key

Vest; top; skirt; boots, Loro Piana

Details are important when putting together a show-stopping look that will turn heads at every corner. And nothing steals the show like an extremely well-coordinated ensemble such as this hypnotising set, boots included, by Italian fashion house Loro Piana that adds a copious amount of avant garde flair.
