No one does the street style like Aussies do. That laidback, perfectly chic vibe was present on this year’s Fashion Week, and there was a range of pastels, funky patterns, sheer layers, and interesting cuts that will appeal to every style diva. If you want to be charmed by fashion and find a few ideas that you can fit into your own wardrobe, take a look at some of our favorite highlights from the Australian Fashion week and have fun stealing all the good looks!
Elongating cuts
Everything was either extremely long or extremely oversized, and wide-leg pants that cinch at the waist were one of the most popular things to see. It’s very easy to wear this cut of pants because they hide a lot of problem areas, but you need to be careful and pick a more form-fitting top so your clothes wouldn’t end up overwhelming you. Long dresses were also present, and we especially like the ones on the Lee Mathews show because of their crisp white simplicity and how easy they are to wear and match with other pieces. With a simple dress you really can do anything – put a denim jacket over, wear a pair of giant earrings, and slip on some cute sneakers and you’re ready.
Short boots
Ankle boots with chunky heels are the perfect way to give your wardrobe a wearable edge, and the streets were full of stylish gals who were rocking shoes in white, black, and burgundy colors. These kinds of shoes go well with almost anything, but especially skinny jeans. Pick some distressed denim and you’re bound to love this as your casual everyday look.
Feminine minimalism
Pereira Fitzgerald classic pieces invite the images of very delicate femininity, enhanced even more by being paired with simple striped shirts and a lot of asymmetrical cuts. Elegance lies in straightforward wardrobe, and your seemingly boring white button-down can actually be the most ladylike item in your wardrobe if you style it right. With pops of orange for the warmth and some simple accessories you’ll be showing the world you know how good you look and how little you need present that.
Kaftans for all the divas
Kaftans were a big thing on the Fashion Week, and Camilla Frank’s closing show really made some jaws drops with its stunning oriental prints and modern cuts. We’re loving the show because Camilla really captured true beauty with the intricate pieces of her collection, and this is one thing that any lady can easily wear on the street if she wants to look spectacular. If you want artistic style, then a gorgeous kaftan is definitely the right pick – you can let it be the focal point of your entire outfit. Simple jewelry to style it, simple leather sandals to go with it, and a messy, romantic hairstyle to finish it off.
Bucket bags
These cute lil’ tote bags that were shaped like a bucket were surprisingly popular everywhere, and it’s a great stylish piece that will immediately get complimented as soon as you walk through the door. They’re a little sassy, a little edgy, and they speak volumes about your skills as a fashionista.
Chunky sneakers
Athleisure is still going on strong, and it was a very present style on the streets. Those good old dad sneakers are popular again, and we’ve seen them paired with anything from jeans to slinky white dresses. To keep it easy, simply indulge your craving for comfy wardrobe and rock your oversized hoodie and cool sneakers when you want to be stylish without any fuss.
Enjoying the casual vibes and easy-to-pull-off looks? Aussies do it well, and with a little creativity you can put your own twist on all of these and enjoy wearing some very cute looks for the season.
