Paris street style reboot
Street looks coming out of Paris are leaning hard into chunky skater sneakers — a trend being worn by A‑list names like Jennifer Lawrence and Zoë Kravitz — and swapping classic blazers for oversized, short‑sleeved and deconstructed shapes. Accessories are sharpening the story too: 'nécolletage' dressing (statement necklaces, silk scarves) is trending from runways to the sidewalk. (vogue.com) (whowhatwear.com) (whowhatwear.com)
