You need a uniform this summer, according to the street style scene at the fall 2023 couture shows. The one of choice in Paris at the moment—both off and on the runway (see the opening look at Valentino)—was a crisp white button-down paired with some designer denim and classic black pumps. Some of those not opting for the French-girl uniform went all in for the so-called coastal grandmother look. Wearing stripes or all-white sets, they might have been inspired by filmmaker Nancy Meyers’s muse—Diane Keaton—who made a rare Fashion Week appearance at Thom Browne’s first couture show.
With the highly anticipated Barbie movie premiere just days away, pink was prevalent. But others who are more in Wednesday Addams’s camp worked head-to-toe black knit dresses with peekaboo sheerness. Couture Week wouldn’t be complete without some glamour, and at the fall 2023 couture shows, both gleaming silver metallics and puss* bows made the rounds.
