A Moment For the Cool Model-Off-Duty Looks From NYFW

The new fall 2025 collections, debuted during New York Fashion Week, were not the only exciting looks to take in this week. Off the catwalk, the street style scene put forward interesting new outfit propositions as well—be it via great coats, new It bags, or statement hosiery. And while this season’s crop of well-clad showgoers mostly consisted of celebrities, editors, and VIP influencers, the participating models—dashing from one show to the next—also delivered their own fashion flavor.

This week’s shows served as a true hub for impeccable model-off-duty style, as there is something effortlessly cool about the way models put outfits together in between gigs. Sure, their own outfits often different drastically from the new designs they sport on the runway, but they sometimes strike similar notes of elegance and trendiness. Take model of the moment Alex Consani, who was spotted in an oversized cream sweater and slouchy leather boots, or runway regular Paloma Elsesser, who paired calf-length leggings with a cropped leather bomber.

Other supermodels, like Kendall Jenner, opted for statement accessories to keep warm during the week—like a jaunty hat and scarf. While the looks were built for function and coziness while on-the-go—they were also perfect for the awaiting street style photographers crowing around pre-and-post show. This is NYFW, after all: one must be camera-ready at all times.
