On the runways, designers may have been focused on reality, but out in the real world—aka outside the fashion shows—street stylers wanted to keep living their fashion fantasies. And what’s more of a fantasy than Hollywood? The “Barbenheimer” trend continued this season, with show attendees channeling both their inner Margot Robbie and Cillian Murphy by combining hot pink and black.
This season we also saw shoulders go extra-wide, for that dramatic Working Girl-look, a look plucked straight from Saint Laurent’s runways last season. Shoes continue to be the focus of an outfit, even when they are very soft and almost-imperceptible—perfect for when you maybe have to sneak into a fashion show without being seen (or heard). Similarly, jackets to go incognito in were big this season; although in many cases pulling your collar up or hiding behind a hood only garnered more attention from photographers.
Outside Miu Miu, models like Amelia Gray Hamlin and Paloma Elsesser cosplayed as preppy students in their collared shirts and glasses. But the eyewear that had everyone talking was likely the Apple Vision Pros that replaced last season’s ski-goggle frenzy. We’re one step closer to the future.
