The Unexpected Street Style Moments We Are Still Thinking About

This May 9–17, Who What Wear Australia presents its third annual Street Style Awards, #TheStreeties, honouring the tastemakers and industry insiders whose style sets the tone and influences the world of fashion today. Last year, Chloe Hill was crowned the winner of the 2017 Street Style Awards for her ability to push boundaries with flair and colour. We can't wait to see what 2018 has in store. 

Fashion Week Australia is nearing its end, but never fear: The street style is still going strong. Looking back over the past week, one common theme rings true throughout. There’s a lot of up-and-coming fashion in our country—and that’s something we should all be proud of. While we obsessed over the new designers that emerged throughout the week, we simultaneously spotted amazing street style from newcomers as well.

Admittedly, there are specific people we’ve grown accustomed to looking out for as they’ve become known for their style… but it’s almost more exciting to see someone new on the scene, unexpectedly blowing everyone away with fresh new outfits. Throughout the week, we’ve been insistent that even those who weren’t attending the runway shows could still celebrate fashionably—and our readers have definitely proven it.

Below you’ll see the best street style submitted to our street style awards via Instagram. These style stars uploaded their best looks to Instagram with the hashtag #TheStreeties, leaving us feeling inspired by their amazing outfits.
