What the World's Most Stylish Are Wearing to Couture Fashion Week
Paris Haute Couture Fashion Week, known by many as the "ultimate" fashion week, has come around for another season. It's a chance for designers to demonstrate the heights of their creativity and mastery of fabric. These collections are here to inspire and excite industry insiders and the public alike. Meanwhile, on the streets of Paris, another show is running in real time—one that is just as significant as than the grand spectacles happening behind closed doors. That's right: it's the street style girls travelling from show to show. From Pernille Teisbaek's wild tiger-print maxi to Caroline Issa's belted sundress, these style mavens have left no stone unturned in their search for paparazzi-appropriate looks. Scroll down to discover the most inspiring street style we spotted.
Style Notes: This stylish showgoer is all about summer velvet, and we're totally with her. The addition of a crop top and trainers keeps it more casual.
Style Notes: Tiffany Hsu tricks us into thinking she's found the dream jumpsuit, whereas, in fact, she has just tucked a shirt into matching trousers. Also, can we just appreciate that belt bag?
Style Notes: Oh Pernille, we'll never stop marvelling at your ability to make anything look Scandi-cool—even if it's a floor-skimming, tiger-print dress and yellow cat-eye sunglasses.
Style Notes: It's the accessories that make this ultra-cool ensemble sing. The knotted scarf and polo shirt give us Brownie uniform flashbacks (in the best way possible), while the slip skirt softens up the look.
Style Notes: If you didn't already know, yellow is the new pink (clearly, this street styler got the memo). We love her use of trainers to add a sporty edge.

Style Notes: No is filter required for this fresh-faced model. Sometimes all you need is a LBD and a megawatt smile.
Style Notes: Sophisticated meets this season's sheer trend in this stunning outfit. It might not be the easiest look to try at home, but if nothing else, it proves that a cheeky flash of lingerie can still look classy.
Style Notes: Grunge gets a 2018 makeover here, courtesy of our style crush Lisa Aiken. A floaty silk top and lacy skirt are instantly elevated with these heavy-duty black boots.
Style Notes: Caroline Issa looks like a 1950s silver-screen starlet in this sky blue linen sundress.
Style Notes: We jump back three decades with this 1970s-inspired look. Here, silk turquoise trousers are brought to life with a floral shirt and retro sunnies.

Style Notes: A timelessly chic look if we ever saw one. We're taking notes of this outfit's flattering, leg-lengthening proportions.
Style Notes: Bold and beautiful. This striped Louis Vuitton dress strikes the perfect balance between simple and statement. Chunky sneakers finish the look off nicely.
Style Notes: Ice cream colours are the order of business in this elegant outfit. Kudos for the clever use of a wide belt to create an hourglass silhouette.
Style Notes: Striped trousers plus a hot pink shirt and a black leather bag. This is simple fashion maths that we can totally get on board with.
Style Notes: A shell necklace immediately kicks this rust-coloured midi dress into 2018. A great option for your heat wave wardrobe.
Style Notes: Vogue Paris Editor in Chief Emmanuelle Alt keeps it minimal with impeccably tailored trousers and a ruffled white blouse. The "less is more" saying has never been so true.
Style Notes: Okay, so this might not be a look for everyone, but this is Susie Lau after all, and if she can't wear a tie-dye Céline dress with blinged-out Maison Margiela shoes, then who can?
Style Notes: White jeans are clearly a thing this season and we love how these show-goers style theirs with neutral basics.

Style Notes: Tiffany Hsu shows that the off-the-shoulder trend is still chic. Proportions are perfectly balanced with a pair of wide leg trousers.
Style Notes: How cool is this skirt? We're taking note of the nonchalant addition of an oversized, short-sleeve shirt.
Style Notes: Hooray for the sartorial simplicity of a jumpsuit. Throw it on with tinted sunglasses and you're good to go.
Style Notes: This model has got the elevated sportswear look down. The distinctive belt and Nike bum bag pulls the look together.
Style Notes: Dream colour combo alert. Orange and blue make for perfect bedfellows.
Style Notes: Who knew a denim midi skirt could look so elegant? Giovanna Battaglia is resplendent in silver—the picture of Italian glamour.
Style Notes: Take note pregnant fashion-lovers. This showgoer rocks the polka dot trend with a chic transparent trench and cat eye sunglasses.
Style Notes: Candela Pelizza's Alberta Ferretti feathered dress is kept in check by a perfectly tailored blazer and natural, undone waves.
Style Notes: Another showstopper from Susie Bubble. A Dior jacket and Paco Rabanne skirt make for a cool, 2018 update on 1980s maximalism.
Style Notes: Deborah Reyner Sebag's outfit is a celebration of all things pink. Also we predict that her Rejina Pyo rope bag is set to become a trend.
Style Notes: Dad style rules in Lisa Aiken's khaki shorts and Topman white tee combo. We also thoroughly approve of the Staud bucket bag addition.
