6 Quiet Luxury Outfits Fashion People Are Wearing In Paris
During fashion month, the streets of Paris were filled with style insiders attending the F/W 23 collections. There, they were wearing some of the new-in designer drops that are emerging for spring, and while we saw a number of fresh trends emerge, it was the low-key, quiet luxury outfits that were particularly noteworthy. On the runways, we’ve been seeing a rise in wearable fashion and a movement towards anti-viral pieces that are intended to be wore season after season, and that sentiment was echoed on the street style scene as well.
While wearability is central to the looks, so is a sense of quiet, easy luxury: Incognito bags in place of flashy logo styles, sleek leather belts recognizable only by their signature hardware, and pared-back designers shoes with timeless shapes that are intended to be worn season after season. The pieces have "if you know you know” quality, with details only the most astute fashion observers will recognize. Ahead, 6 quiet luxury outfits people are wearing in Paris to add to your closet.
