Combining comfort with practicality for cold weather, playing with texture
and accessories, and mixing timeless classics with current trends: here
are 10 looks to inspire your inner stylist.
Ice Spice
Ice Spice’s custom-made necklace is the star of this outfit! The chunky statement piece is said to have cost $100,000 and features her face in PowerPuff style! I think we would all buy one if we had a spare $100k lying around! Her coordinated outfit is comfortable for performing but also flatters her and shows off her insane body. Her sleek hair and natural makeup let the outfit speak for itself, and the Chanel crossbody adds some timeless glamour to the look.
Biddy
Whilst her gravity-defying hair is the centrepiece of this look, there’s no denying that the outfit is fire. Styled by herself and shot on International Women’s Day, this whole shoot screams powerful. The leather on leather is giving The Matrix, whilst the pearl necklace adds femininity. We love that she has channeled her South Asian heritage by matching her red gloves and eyeshadow to her Sindoor, as well as accessorising with stacks of bangles.
Kylie Jenner
Queen Kylie has done it again! Posing in front of a wall of photos of herself backstage at Coperni, she showed off her toned stomach in a leather crossover jacket. Coperni showcased different leather pieces in their AW23 show on models like Lila Moss, whilst also gaining media attention for experimenting with robot dogs. Kylie’s tousled hair and subtle glam makeup were channeling rockstar girlfriend, with her yellow statement earrings drawing attention to her instantly-recognisable face.
Kicki Yangz
This artist and model is no stranger to double denim, one of the biggest trends this year. Her red lip is ‘tres chic’ and matches the red clogs perfectly. The Italian Scholls paired with the flared denim sleeves is very 60s, but the long shirt over jeans and open-toe shoes is reminiscent of 2000s catwalks (think: Katie Holmes’ controversial Jingle Ball 2022 outfit). One of her more simple and classic looks, Kicki is always experimenting with new trends and styles in her clothes, hair, and makeup.
Sierra Renas
This look is simple but flawlessly executed- a low rise and cropped combo is always a win. Given that Sierra is a stylist, it isn’t surprising that she knows how to mix different aesthetics to create the perfect outfit. The boots and long skirt combo is very 90s, while the warped sleeves and hem give it a futuristic feel. The pastel pink shade is perfect for spring, with the comfy knitted fabric slightly ripped to give an edgy, industrial look. This is emphasised by combining the set with sharp-toed boots and layering chunky padlocks and chain necklaces.
Koleen Diaz
Firstly, Koleen casually wearing a gown to an art gallery is ICONIC. This outfit is giving Wednesday Addams meets corpse bride meets Jay Z. The insanely-detailed gloves are by T-Label, aka the creator of the viral ‘glove bra’, who we love. The outfit is dressed down with a Yankees hat, scuffed white boots, and a loose braid. The pearl necklace and silver earrings add a sense of elegance and complement the dress, while sticking to the monochromatic colour scheme.
Maha
Maha combines colours, patterns, and textures to create a surprisingly coordinated outfit. The layering of fur and leather is guaranteed to keep you warm in the cold NY spring, and the turtleneck and tights are classic cold-weather staples. The combination of textures and patterns is reminiscent of Japanese street style, especially the corset’s fur trim and the base layer’s ruffled neck. The shoes complement the leather jacket with a classic silhouette and silver buckle, and the Versace sunglasses add an ‘off-duty model’ vibe.
Gabriette
The model, singer and self-proclaimed has ventured away from her usual wardrobe of black, leather, and edgy pieces with this pink floor-length HM Studio dress. Valentino adorned models, celebrities, and even buildings in hot pink at its fashion shows last year, so it isn’t surprising that Gabriette has opted to wear this piece in Paris. The simple cut shows off her figure and tattoos, and allows her statement pointed black boots to be seen underneath. The pink shade brings out the colour in her lips and draws the eyes up to her 90s-style brows.
Bella Hadid
Despite being seemingly caught off-guard in this photo, Bella looks perfect as always. The super tall Marc Jacobs heels look extremely stylish, but hard to walk in (no wonder she’s sitting down), and quite literally elevate the outfit! Another fashionable but impractical wardrobe choice for winter is the turtleneck with a huge panel cut out of the side. However, we do love the silver chrome nails and earrings combo, and the cat-eye glasses; we will be saving this look for warmer times!
Renell Medrano
This outfit is the perfect combination of practicality and style. The matching hat and cargo pants are unreleased from Ice Studio and are ideal for spring showers, and add a trendy element of gorpcore to the look. The retro-reflective co-ord is a throwback to Paris Hilton’s famous ‘anti-paparazzi’ scarf, while the Timberlands were regularly worn by celebrities like JLO, Rihanna, and Kanye West in the 2000s. The outfit is taken to the next level with a combination of gold rings, bracelets, and a huge gold chain.
