Emmanuelle Alt at Sonia Rykiel

French Vogue editor Emmanuelle Alt has been wearing white jeans year round for an effortlessly sophisticated look. At the Sonia Rykiel show in Paris, she paired them with a luxe leopard print jacket: high-low fashion at its best.

She has also been a big influence in beauty. Many of the fall shows were styled with models with very little makeup and loose, natural hair, à la Emmanuelle.

Gray Peplum and Gingham Dress, Outside Chanel

Delfina Delettrez Fendi

One of the coolest things about the peplum on this gingham dress on Delfina Delettrez Fendi outside the Chanel show is that it appears to be completely detachable. Retro style, deconstructed! And I love the bag.

Post amended to include her name

Karl-Edwin Guerre at Gucci

The cover of today’s New York Times features a photo of the Instagram guys, whose company was just bought for $1 billion. But what did they wear to the photo shoot with the New York Times? Ill-fitting jeans and slovenly, untucked button downs. It’s really a disgrace!

Guys: there is a difference between looking casually cool and looking like a slob, though Silicon Valley in particular seems blind to the distinction. Better to follow the lead of my fellow photo blogger Karl-Edwin Guerre of Guerreisms, who arrived at every day of an epic three week fashion season in Europe perfectly turned out in elegant clothes. Yet his clothes are comfortable, and they can move – otherwise there’s no way to make it through day after day on your feet. If a photographer can look this good, so can the founders of Instagram.

White with Black Polka Dots, Outside Viktor & Rolf

All white and polka dots: two themes that are very much of the moment for spring 2012. Love how she contrasts the black polka dot stockings with the white feathered skirt, sheer white blouse and white leather biker vest. The bright clutch and iPhone and red lipstick are the icing on the cake.

Julia Sarr-Jamois at Marni

During fashion week we had no idea that Julia Sarr-Jamois, editor of Wonderland, was going to be modeling in two big spring campaigns, but the results for Tibi and Barneys are quite beautiful. Here she is – a model off/on duty? – in an elaborate floral embroidered black patent leather jacket at Marni.

Bryanboy at Marni

Fashion blogger Bryanboy arrived at Milan’s Marni show in style. Love how the Roberto Cavalli fur plays off the pattern of the Suno pants. The sweater is Comme des Garcons, the yellow bag Dolce & Gabbana, the studded shoes Prada.

Tanya Dziahileva at Ann Demeulemeester

Supermodel Tanya Dziahileva posed in black leather leggings outside the Ann Demeulemeester show in Paris. Whatever happens in fashion with skirts, dresses, etc. many models favor super skinny black leather looks like this. And why not? It looks fantastic.

Giovanna Battaglia in Valentino

Giovanna Battaglia wore this khaki and lace Valentino dress to the Roberto Cavalli show in Milan. The faceted black necklace at the collar is not part of the original runway look but her own addition – bellissima!
