THE EDIT: 3 Unexpected Runway Trends Dominating Street Style Right Now
Let’s be real—the best part of fashion week isn't just the clothes on the runway; it’s the chaotic, incredibly curated chaos happening right outside the venues.
Here are three micro-trends we are currently obsessing over and how to style them without breaking the bank:
1. Industrial Hardware as Jewelry
Move over delicate gold chains. Chunky silver carabiners, heavy-duty grommets, and oversized utility buckles are making their way off the construction site and onto the necks and waists of fashion’s elite. Pair a heavy hardware belt with a slip dress for that ultimate high-low contrast.
2. Butter Yellow Is the New Neutral
If you're already experiencing beige fatigue, breathe a sigh of relief. Soft, creamy butter yellow has officially dethroned millenial pink and stark white. It’s warm, it’s dreamy, and it surprisingly goes with almost everything in your capsule wardrobe.
3. The 'Wrong Shoe' Theory
Coined by stylist Allison Bornstein, this rule states that your outfit should always include footwear that feels slightly incorrect for the rest of the look. Wearing a hyper-feminine lace midi skirt? Throw on some beat-up vintage sneakers or chunky loafers. Trust the process.
