PARIS FASHION WEEK: PARISIAN CHIC WITH AGNES B.

October 14, 2016 In Editorials Street Style Travel

I was super lucky and excited to attend my first ever Paris Fashion Week this fall (for the Spring-Summer 2017 collections) – le défilé de mode comme on dit en français! I was extra stoked to sit front row at one of the most iconic, quintessential Parisian brands in contemporary history – agnès b. – at the epic Palais de Tokyo! To me, the essence of French girl style is the effortless chic, modern but feminine, cool but not overly trendy look that contemporary Parisian designers like agnès b., Vanessa Seward and A.P.C. embody! The collection was a perfect mix of gamine, flirty and colorful prints plus menswear-inspired everyday street style looks perfect for strolling through Canal Saint-Martin or the Marais! Scroll through to check out my favorite looks from the show, along with the latest luxury Parisian designer jacket I wore to the shows that all the fashion it-girls are currently coveting!

THE STREET STYLE LOOKS

A classic tuxedo suit never goes out of style. The best part is – each piece can also be worn as a separate!

agnes-b-white-outfit

Love the off-white pyjama style suit – casual cool at its best!

agnes-b-navy-suit-biker-helmet

Give me anything navy, any time of year, and I’ll swoon. Another cool menswear-inspired everyday look that can be worn head-to-toe or separately!

THE FEMININE FLIRT

The softer, more playful side of agnès b. – putting a spring in your step with these colorful prints!

The classic french touch – an elegant but sweet and flirty take on a feminine Spring/Summer dress…

agnes-b-black-midi-dress-hat

The ultimate Frenchie cool: tone down a LBD with a pair of sensible but chic flats and a fun, floppy hat!

agnes-b-coral-mini-dress

The bold color is softened by the fluid, elegant silhouette – which keeps a flirty feel with the bright coral color, shorter hem and fun floral accessories!

The ethereal finale was the dreamiest culmination of a flawless collection!

Leaving le Palais de Tokyo to visit designer showrooms across the Seine!


I love the way the agnès b. runway show started off with high energy with the cool, menswear-inspired, luxe street style looks. The brand is known for making everyday ready-to-wear (RTW) pieces that can easily be dressed up or down, but always look effortlessly cool. The SS17 collection did not disappoint! My favorite looks had to be the head-to-toe suits, because they look so sleek and cool as an outfit, but are also really practical and can be worn as separates (my favorite go-to look is a pair of jeans, tee and suit blazer). The show fluidly transitioned to a softer, springy color palette as the models stepped onto the runway in colorful prints, candy colored dresses and flowy feminine frocks! The bold colors were sweetly softened by fluid, elegant silhouettes, which maintained their flirty feel with bright colors, shorter hems and fun flora accessories (how cool were those palm tree earrings?!)!

Merci beaucoup à agnès b. et son équipe qui m’ont invitée à ce défilé de mode exquis! J’étais ravie d’y assister et j’espère bien y retourner à la prochaine fois!

Stay tuned for my next blog post, which will dive into the divine leather-laced world of the ultra cool, luxury Parisian brand Nour Hammour (their “Erin” jacket in gris pictured above on me)…
