Paris Haute Couture week stormed the runway, displaying an array of beautiful pieces in every collection. This season, the looks did not disappoint, ranging everywhere from fairytale to snow princess. At the end of an amazing week, I couldn’t wait to achieve a similar style from the comforts of my own closet! Without being too frivlous, I tried to get the look from Paris fashion week by pairing some great classic pieces with some garments that add that Paris flair.
The Haute Couture Look
Particularly, Ewa Minge’s Fall collection packed a powerful punch. The collection’s multi-layered pieces, mixed fabrics, and textures that worked as separates (you can read the full article here), really spoke to me. In Paris, it all makes sense on the catwalk! Accordingly, I wanted to recreate this look straight off the runway and into my daily life.
Recreating the Paris fashion look at home
Incidentally, I was so moved by the Paris fashion designers I immediately started scouring online for ways to emulate them. I find myself being continually inspired by designers that push fashion forward, providing us with new pieces that we can easily transition into our own wardrobes.
Get the Paris look, the investment piece
I think everyone needs a great topper. Keep with the layered look and try this beautiful faux shearling coat or this one here.
As well, if you don’t already have a lace blouse, consider purchasing one this season. This versatile lace blouse here looks super feminine — for a reasonable price!
Additionally, if you really want to emulate a Parisian fashionista, try on a leather pencil skirt, or a faux leather skirt. You can dress this look up or down to be classified as cool or casual.
Don’t forget the accessories
Next, a beaded box clutch or a gold ring pouch will brighten up any outfit and pull it all together. If you want to emulate the Haute Couture look at a lower price, you should think about purchasing a smaller bag. As well, a pair of chandelier earrings will elevate your look and keep you looking polished and on trend.
I noticed Platform sandals have been going strong for some time. This cute, inexpensive pair can be worn with a sheer sock and can be paired with all outfits pictured above or with jeans.
Key pieces
Either a patterned jumpsuit or a floral jumpsuit is a great key piece! From the sheer drapey fabric to the beautiful soft pattern, I think it fits perfectly with the Parisian style. If you will wear this piece over and over, I would consider investing.
No doubt, this luxe faux mink jacket allows you to mix fabrics and textures easily. It looks luxurious, and the cropped length makes it rewearable with jeans.
Finally, I recommend trying on a pair of combat boots this season. The season’s must-have bootie appeared on a multiple runways!
