The final leg of Fashion Month, a four-week marathon of shows, presentations, and general sartorial merriment that spans two continents, is here. And while some of the season's most anticipated shows are on the docket in the City of Lights — think: Jacquemus, Dior, Chanel, Louis Vuitton, and Celine, just to name a few — everyone knows that the best outfit inspiration comes from outside the shows, whether they're held in the heart of the Marais or on the outskirts of the city like Simon Porte's show the evening before Day One. And because Paris is best known for its refined, pared-down style, you can expect the best street style from Paris Fashion Week to be equally as sophisticated. That usually translates to more neutral tones, timeless silhouettes, and overall more wearable looks. (Hey, there's a reason the French-girl trope lives on as a synonym for effortless style.)
Still, it's not just the French girls whose outfits are the most captivating. Editors, buyers, and influencers from across the world all come together to show off not just their own enviable personal style, but also to give an IRL preview of spring's most anticipated trends. Vanessa Hong of @thehautepursuit, for example, wore a white bucket hat to Marine Serre on Feb. 26, and countless show-goers wore head-to-toe oversized suiting, proving the sophisticated pairing isn't going anywhere in 2019.
