Okay, so I’ve been totally obsessed with the Khaite runway shows lately. I decided to dive deep and really get their aesthetic. Here’s how I went about it.
First, I watched a ton of their recent runway shows. Like, multiple times each. I started with the most recent one and worked my way backward. This helped me see how their style has evolved.
My Observations
- Color Palette: Lots of neutrals, blacks, whites, creams. Occasional pops of bold color, but mostly muted tones.
- Silhouettes: Clean lines, often oversized, but with a focus on structure. Think strong shoulders, tailored coats, and flowing dresses.
- Fabrics: Luxurious! Lots of leather, cashmere, silk, and denim. They really play with textures.
- Details: Minimalist, but impactful. Maybe a statement belt, a unique button, or a carefully placed pleat.
After that, I started to look at how people are actually wearing Khaite pieces in real life. I scrolled through street style blogs and Instagram, searching for inspiration.
Then came the fun part – trying to recreate some of the looks myself! I didn’t buy anything new, instead I worked with what I already had in my closet.
I paired an oversized black blazer with a simple white tee and some wide-leg trousers. I added a thick leather belt to cinch the waist and give it some shape.
Another day, I wore a cream-colored cashmere sweater with a pair of dark-wash jeans. I focused on the fit – making sure the sweater was slightly tucked in and the jeans were the right length.
The biggest takeaway? It’s all about the details! Even with basic pieces, you can achieve that Khaite vibe by focusing on quality fabrics, clean lines, and thoughtful styling.
I’m still experimenting, but it’s been so much fun! It’s pushed me to think differently about my wardrobe and how I put outfits together.
