The Art of the Fashion Week Outfit

by

Mainstream Minimalism

Clean lines and an absence of color have become the de rigueur uniform for most editors attending shows. (Thanks, Phoebe Philo!) At least it makes getting dressed a no-sweat exercise—white, black, and navy just go together. Photos: Tommy Ton; Søren Jepsen / The Locals

Sport-Core

Love it or hate it, the sporty influence of streetwear isn't going out of style anytime soon. The good news is that a bright varsity jacket and low-top sneakers are as comfortable as they are eye-catching. Photos: Tommy Ton

Denim Days

Blame the omnipresence of denim on the runways for the fabric's prevalence on the street. We can't complain—wearing loose jeans and a sweater makes running around for hours a little more bearable. Photos: Tommy Ton (2); Søren Jepsen / The Locals

Neutral Monochrome

Ivory, camel, gray…they're the colors of the now, and the colors that street-style stars are wearing head to toe. Just add an accent piece to make sure you don't fully blend in to the background. Photos: Tommy Ton (2); Søren Jepsen / The Locals
