With 109 brands showing off their spring 2023 collections this week, New York Fashion week is bringing even more style to the city and New Yorkers are out in full force, showing off their own unique styles in the new fashions. Here are some of the best street-style looks from New York Fashion Week.
In support of Elizabeth Hilfiger’s growing fashion line, Foo and Foo, Bella wore another unlikely combination. A reigning style icon, the 25-year-old rocks avant-garde outfits and unusual Y2K-inspired accessories combinations thanks to her unpredictable style sense. The model paired a Foo and Foo graphic T-shirt under a light weight oversized striped shirt. It is a look that was given Bella’s distinctly 2000s nostalgia aesthetic thanks to studded baggy jeans with a low-slung waist, worn with a vivid pair of electric blue trainers. Adding to the style was a black leather belt with silver rivets and a long braid, which has become Bella’s signature hairstyle.

The tie-dye trend is officially back and better than ever.
Despite walking the runways for Fendi and Proenza Schouler during New York Fashion Week, Bella still managed to showcase her impressive styling skills with a print-mixing look off-duty.
The pastel hues of Bella’s outfit seamlessly transitioned from summer to fall as she stepped out on the streets of NYC in a chic look. In this ensemble, she pairs a tie-dye Gate Print Tank Top from Paloma Wool with pale checked trousers giving an early 70s vibe. Both the model’s trousers and top share similar yellow hues that make them work together so well. Keeping it casual, Bella opted for a sheeny pale gold leather jacket with flared cuffs to complement the print mixing ensemble. The outfit was completed with plenty of accessories. Bella combined metals with a number of chunky gold and silver rings and bold Chanel earrings, but her necklace was certainly making a statement- a white pearl choker completed with a large, swirled heart pendant and teardrop-shaped pearl hanging from the bottom point. The model added a vintage Dior Saddle Bowler Bag and finished the look with rectangle sunglasses.
There is plenty of newness in the world of denim, from relaxed and baggy fits to darker washes and tailored styles.
Looking stylish as always, Rihanna headed to the Bowery Hotel to meet friends wearing an oversized denim ensemble from Balenciaga. The star sported a loose-fit denim anorak over relaxed washed-out jeans. The colours of this outfit certainly make accessories pop out as she donned the denim duo alongside bright lime-coloured sunglasses, matching heels, and sparkling diamonds.
If we’ve learned anything from the fashion world this year, it’s that pink is still the new pink. Refusing to budge as the summer’s statement colour, from catwalk to streetwear, looks at New York Fashion Week this month were still dominated by pink.

Accessorizing with a mini hot pink Balenciaga bag and cat-eye sunglasses, the influencer finishes her outfit with The Attico Devon sequined leather mules. Just as designer duo behind the Attico say the shoes really do “make every entrance feel like the entrance”.
Kate Bartlett looks elegant and sophisticated in a pair of black wide fit trousers and a black crop top- the look is evoking business chic as she finishes the outfit with a black blazer. An all-black is always a mood and the blazer trend is all the rage this year, in case you haven’t noticed. Even the simplest of outfits can be elevated and polished with a touch of preppy elegance from a blazer. As a spring jacket or as an essential layering piece in winter, this versatile wardrobe staple can be worn year-round.
Quiet but Powerful: Elsa Hosk shows us that sometimes it really is the simplest of outfits that can make the most impact.
While fashion trends come and go minimalism always seems to stick around. The essence of minimalism is to get rid of clutter and flash. Its hallmarks are simplicity and elegance, as well as neutral colour schemes. Elsa stuns as she donned the blue ‘Chino Pleated Mini Skort’ with the white ‘Cotton Poplin Oversized’ shirt – both from the Helsa collection, a new line inspired by the Swedish model’s heritage, featuring wardrobe staples and timeless pieces.
Model Ella Snyder wears a lime loose-fit baby doll dress under a sleeveless woollen jumper by 3.1 Phillip Lim. From the 90’s and now making it way to street style, the 2022 version of the babydoll dress is checking a lot of this year’s trends with cuffed sleeves, bold colours and voluminous skirts. Ella compliments the outfit by matching her accessories with the silver embellishments on her jumper, the silver shoes over black socks fit the outfit perfectly.
