As the new season settles in, celebrities are fully embracing their fall wardrobes—and no transitional wardrobe is complete without denim. Take a cue from Vogue October cover star Dakota Johnson, who was spotted in New York wearing slim-cut jeans in a medium wash, pairing them with a fur-trimmed jacket from Valentino and black flats as seasonally appropriate touches.

Fancy a Jacket
Vogue October cover star Dakota Johnson is making the press rounds for her new film Verity, relying on an unexpected wardrobe staple for the red carpet: denim. The key is dressing it up with a fanciful topper. Layer the actress’s fur-trimmed jacket from Valentino over a satin camisole and slim-cut blue jeans, accessorizing with black high-vamp flats and stacks of jewelry for even more luxe detailing.
Cream of the Crop
Kendall Jenner continues to explore a tonal palette, these days favoring monochrome looks in shades of beige, cream, and ecru. Recreate a similar outfit, making a wrap-style blazer your focal point, then pairing it with slim-cut trousers and kitten heels, all in complementary neutral tones. A soft leather shoulder bag and the supermodel’s signature sunnies and hoop earrings complete the timeless minimalist feel.
Heavy on the Suede
As Paris Fashion Week kicked off, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley proves that suede is fall’s best power player. The supermodel wore both Saint Laurent’s chocolate bomber jacket and Bottega Veneta’s tote in the sumptuous material upon touching down in the City of Light, pairing them with black trousers, pointy pumps, and Phoebe Philo’s oversized sunglasses for an instant dose of Parisian chic.
Eveningwear Redefined
Katie Holmes was also spotted in Paris attending a Fashion Week party with boyfriend Jason Bard Yarmosky in a fresh eveningwear formula, consisting of a black double-breasted blazer, crewneck T-shirt, and white feather-trimmed skirt. Take cues from the actress, adding black kitten-heeled pumps and a poppy red bag for that French flair. All we can say is: oui oui!
Fade to Grey
You might not want to think about it, but it’s time to start pulling out the coats. Alexa Chung made a strong case for the season’s tailored topper, attending the Dior show during PFW in a double-breasted coat in gray. Styled atop a crisp white button-down shirt, light wash jeans, and the house’s satin bow heels, it’s a combination that is decidedly Alexa—and oh-so easy to pull off for everyday.
Lady in Red
Zoë Kravitz was preparing for stormy weather in New York, donning a lengthy red coat for a chilly autumn walk this week. The actress let the statement topper do all the talking (her version from The Row is sold out, but you can get a similar style here), wearing it over subtle navy trousers, sporty black sneakers, and what we can assume is a little black tee. A slouchy shoulder bag and black sunnies reinforce the signature off-duty feel.
Layering Pro
Jennifer Lawrence also broke out the suede, wearing her sumptuous coat in New York with a plaid button-down shirt, go-to Colby pants from La Ligne, and Dior’s white Ribbon sneakers. She’s really taking the modern boho trend to new heights this fall—styling the look with a velvet scarf, an oversized leather bag from The Row, and a graphic ball cap. It’s a masterclass in mixing prints, textures, and proportions.
Paris After Dark
Rihanna is also turning heads in the Paris scene, stepping out for a meal at Lapérouse in a black satin jacket over relaxed wide-leg jeans. The ensemble is perfect for desk-to-dinner dressing, no matter where the day takes you—simply accessorize with Dior’s quilted Toujours bag and a choker necklace. Black sunglasses instantly elevate the look for day, while pointy black pumps give it a little bit of edge for night.
Ready for Takeoff
Sienna Miller is keeping white jeans in rotation as the temperatures turn. The War actress was seen styling a straight-leg pair with an oversized navy sweater, red bomber jacket, and her favorite high-vamp black flats—a perfect lesson in how to keep white denim going well into the colder months. Gucci’s Ophidia tote bag and a printed scarf are the finishing touches that make this feel especially on point for transitional dressing or as a polished travel outfit.
Meow!
Vittoria Ceretti closed out Milan Fashion Week with an ode to Italian style, wearing a cropped leopard-print jacket atop a graphic T-shirt and black carpenter jeans while out and about. Unexpected accessories like her Western-inspired belt and retro-inspired, yellow Prada sneakers give the look a playful twist, with just the right touch of sprezzatura.

Ready, Steady, Go!
Gigi Hadid touched down in Milan for Vogue World, styling a relaxed pair of jeans in earthy brown (the essential fall denim color) with a pink striped long-sleeved T-shirt. Accessorized with her trusted soft loafers from The Row and Miu Miu’s Pocket shoulder bag, it’s a masterclass in effortless style, wherever your seasonal travels take you.
Shine Bright
For the Prada show during MFW, Alexa Chung demonstrated how to bring evening-forward pieces into the daylight. She grounded a precious beaded slip skirt and satin drawstring pouch bag with a vibrant red button-down shirt and pointy slingback pumps, making the case (and winning it, too) for a touch of sparkle before dark. Consider it permission to bring your after-hours favorites out a little earlier.
CBK-Coded
For those first crisp days of fall, follow Hunter Shafer’s lead. Stealing from the Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy playbook, the actress wore a black coat with a camel pencil skirt, knee-high boots, and a top-handle bag for the Prada show. Nineties-inspired minimalism is definitely back for another round, so choose your investment pieces wisely.
Back to School
Never missing a beat, Bella Hadid leaned into a fall outerwear moment, opting for a cropped khaki trench coat over a black mini dress. The supermodel added collegiate-inspired touches (it’s back to school season, after all!) with sneakerinas and a ball cap, giving the combination her own off-duty spin.
Menswear Motifs
Vogue October cover star Dakota Johnson knows how to take a tried-and-true summer formula—a black tank and slim-cut jeans in a light wash—straight into fall. The secret? A little menswear-inspired layering. The actress topped the look with a cropped plaid Nili Lotan jacket, finishing with cherry red flats for a subtle nod to the season.
The Last Bits
Zoë Kravitz is still hanging onto summer with her signature baby tees and slip skirts, extending the shelf life of her warm-weather staples. Ballet heels usher in an autumnal mood, while a suede jacket or cardigan makes the look ready for cooler days. Complete the look with a roomy woven bag, oversized shield sunglasses, and a red beaded necklace—her signature finishing touches.
With the Band
Daisy Edgar-Jones leaned into the military jacket trend with an ecru-toned style from Alexander McQueen, worn with a tank top, low-rise bootcut jeans, and tonal pumps for a decidedly early-2000s feel. Do the same, swapping your usual blazer for something more on-trend and statement-making.

Bohemian Rhapsody
Jennifer Lawrence was spotted in New York wearing reliable basics: a white T-shirt and black wide-leg pants. The actress added a fine-gauge cardigan in olive green and a Dries Van Noten embroidered fringe scarf to the familiar formula—it’s an easy way to transition mainstay staples into autumn. Leopard-print mules from Ancient Greek Sandals and a structured brown leather bag complete the look with a whisper of bohemian insouciance.
Giddy Up
Bella Hadid touched down in the Big Apple, bringing a bit of her renowned Western flair to the city streets. The supermodel put her signature modern cowgirl spin on denim, styling a brown suede jacket, plaid button-down shirt, and relaxed straight-leg jeans with a Coachtopia patchwork shoulder bag and rodeo belt. For an unexpected plot twist, Hadid traded her usual pointy pumps for Ugg’s Micro slip-on boots, adding a cozy touch perfect for upstate weekend adventures and crisp fall days.
Paint It Black
As much as some of us are itching to embrace a fall wardrobe, Dakota Johnson makes a case for easing into the new season while temperatures remain warm. An all-black look nods to the moodier palette ahead, while silhouettes such as a maxi T-shirt dress and wedge thong sandals allow for summer-in-the-city styling to remain in rotation just a little bit longer. A roomy leather bag, sleek sunglasses, and piled up jewelry add a dose of downtown nonchalance.
Team Spirit
During NYFW, Gigi Hadid was spotted outside the Tommy Hilfiger show in a graphic ringer tee and bootcut jeans, with a striped Guest in Residence sweater casually draped around the neck. The supermodel, who just launched denim at her label GIR, leaned further into the collegiate-inspired mood with accessories to match, from soft leather loafers to Miu Miu’s pocket shoulder bag, giving the look an effortless back-to-school feel, the grown-up way.
Well Suited
Rihanna is still in Paris, spotted once again leaving the restaurant César in an outfit that proves just how versatile a suit can be. A pantsuit in rich chocolate brown is the key here—a welcomed departure from classic black, and something that can go from boardroom to dinner in a flash. Simply style it with a slinky, lace-trimmed camisole underneath and pointy satin pumps (hers are from Saint Laurent), as she did, then finish with plenty of bijoux.
Bright Whites, Big City
Katie Holmes demonstrated how to style a head-to-toe white look for fall, while attending Calvin Klein Collection’s runway show in New York with boyfriend Jason Bard Yarmosky. To recreate the look, start with a wing-collar tuxedo shirt, add a full midi skirt, then pointy pumps in tonal white. She added a boxy black clutch bag for refined contrast, and we’d punctuate the look further with minimalist-friendly jewelry to bring a softer personal touch to the monochrome palette.
Suede Season Starts Now
While in New York, Zoë Kravitz showed how to introduce fall-forward fabrics into your everyday rotation. Wearing a cropped, loose-fitting T-shirt with brown suede bootcut pants, she balanced the tactile look with strappy kitten-heeled sandals, shield sunglasses, and her trusty woven tote from The Row. It’s a masterclass in transitional dressing, where summer staples meet the richer textures of fall.
All Dolled Up
Alexa Chung is team babydoll dress, as seen outside the Khaite’s spring/summer 2027 runway show in a black mini by the brand. Recreate the look with a similar style, perfect for late-summer humidity, then add a little edge her way with oversized shield sunglasses, strappy kitten-heeled sandals, and an It-girl-approved shoulder bag. For chillier evenings, bring along a black cardigan as an easy layering tool.
To a Tee
Kaia Gerber attended the launch party for her first full collection with Re/Done during NYFW wearing a shrunken white tee and low-slung indigo jeans (sadly her exact pair isn’t available until Kaia Vol. 1 officially drops). The supermodel brought a touch of playfulness to the tried-and-true pairing, accessorizing with Fendi’s zebra-print beaded Baguette bag and red heeled sandals. Meanwhile, shield sunglasses and gold hoop earrings are the finishing touches she often relies on.

Back to Black
Ashley Olsen was spotted in New York in a minimalist-friendly look, a straightforward pairing to ease the transition from summer to fall. She layered a white T-shirt underneath a roomy deep V-neck sweater, completing the pared-back formula with black straight-leg jeans, while double-buckle sandals remained a practical choice while the city’s temperatures remain high. Shield sunglasses and a carryall tote from The Row are her go-to finishing touches.
Leather Weather
It’s officially time. Selena Gomez stepped out in Los Angeles in a supple matching set from Khaite, signaling the return of leather weather. A collarless jacket and pencil skirt pair perfectly with pointy pumps for an evening out, but can easily be swapped with flats and her rose-tinted sunglasses for day, or even knee-high boots as the temperatures drop. Statement hoop earrings offer a polished feel with a distinctly downtown attitude—reliable for both day and night, as well.
Rocky Mountain High
While attending the Telluride Film Festival, Julianne Moore promoted her new film wearing a sporty, pullover funnel-neck jacket from Agolde. Layered over a plaid Auralee button-down shirt and slouchy jeans, it’s the perfect blueprint for navigating the seasonal shift with style. Add pointy black boots and Bottega Veneta’s woven Dustbag, just like Moore, and you’ve got a look fitting enough for a weekend in the mountains or the streets of Manhattan.
The Cat’s Meow
Hailey Bieber leaned into leopard for a night out—a solution to incorporating the print as summer gives way to fall, and a slinky dress is all you need for that statement pop. Accessorized with kitten-heel sandals, a mini top-handle bag, and diamond drop earrings, it’s an idea that goes from day-to-night extremely well. Throw on a cardigan overtop when you need a little extra warmth—cute, effortless, and ready for wherever the day takes you.
Slip Into It
Summer’s not over yet! While warm weather still lingers in New York, do as Zoë Kravitz does, relying on familiar favorites to carry you seamlessly into fall. A black tank top, slip skirt, and ballet flats from The Row have made several appearances this season in her wardrobe—and can easily be layered with a cardigan, trench coat, or leather jacket once chillier weather finally strikes. Consider it a case for keeping summer staples in rotation a little longer.
Sweats, After Dark
You might not think that sweatpants are an appropriate choice for after-hours plans, but Rihanna proves otherwise. For a recent evening out, she styled a gray crewneck T-shirt with relaxed sweatpants, topping the casual pairing with a classic black trench coat for a dose of sophistication. Sleek accessories—such as her silver Gucci mules, Dior handbag, and choker necklace—bring a dressed-up finish to these off-duty mainstays.
Romance Is Born
Kendall Jenner stepped out during the Venice Film Festival pairing an abstract floral-print dress—hers is from Phoebe Philo’s Celine resort 2017 collection—with a Jane Birkin-inspired basket bag and white kitten-heel sandals while exploring the floating city. For some, summer dressing is far from over, so make the most of dreamy prints, delicate details, and romantic notes while you still can, before the weather truly turns.
White After Labor Day
Get ahead of the shifting temperatures with some inspiration from Emma Corrin, who touched down in Venice in transitional whites, demonstrating how to keep wearing an all-white look well after Labor Day. Start with a breezy button-down shirt and pleated trousers, then add contrast using black accessories. Lace-up jazz shoes, an oversized leather tote, and sleek belt is an effortless formula that works from late summer into fall—also doubles as a chic travel uniform.
Got the Baby Blues
For those still facing summer heatwaves, Amanda Seyfried’s Miu Miu look is the perfect antidote. The actress wore a puff-sleeved mini dress in crisp poplin to stay cool in Venice, peppering in fall-friendly accessories to give the look a transitional twist. Satin Mary Jane ballerina shoes and a structured top-handle bag in black introduce on-trend notes that feel seasonally appropriate. Complete with similar pearl drop earrings for a delicate touch of elegance.

Cream of the Crop
Kendall Jenner touched down at the Venice Film Festival in a transitional take on summer whites, choosing a silky, vintage Prada matching set for travel, something you can easily recreate with a similar cream-hued tank and fluid trousers. For a fall-friendly approach, play with accessories—brown high-vamp flats, a sumptuous suede weekender bag, and shield sunglasses (hers are the 223 Butler style from Side Eye) usher in the forthcoming season’s richer palette.
Shorts in the City
Back in New York, Zoë Kravitz relied on a familiar favorite to beat the heat: her cobalt blue sport shorts, which have made several appearances throughout the season. This week, she styled them with an oversized black T-shirt, puffy slide sandals, and a red vintage Sex and the City ball cap. She finished the summer-in-the-city ensemble with The Row’s larger Terrasse bag and a diamond tennis necklace, striking that effortless high-low balance only she can.
Easy Breezy
For an end-of-season stroll, Vogue September cover star Kaia Gerber wore one of Emily Dawn Long’s now-sold-out graphic tees—grab a similar style here before the next restock. The supermodel paired it with a simple black skirt, her trusty Repetto ballet heels, and a new favorite: Fendi’s tiger-print Baguette bag. Black shield sunglasses added a touch of downtown cool, bringing the look together with a distinctly ’90s finish.
A Parisian Twist
Rihanna went for classic Parisian style while in the City of Light, layering a black trench coat over a white T-shirt and wide-leg jeans in a deep-indigo wash for a dinner out. However, it wouldn’t be a RiRi look without statement designer accessories—Gucci’s textured-silk mules and Dior’s small Toujours hobo bag added a touch of high fashion to the otherwise understated ensemble.
Ciao, Venezia
Jury President Maggie Gyllenhaal kicked off the Venice Film Festival in a masterclass on wearing white well past Labor Day. Her full Celine look consisted of a navy belted blazer, styled over white pleated trousers, accessorized with the summer hit: white derby shoes. Tie it all together with a leather bag and minimalist-friendly jewelry for a polished finish that feels perfect for the transition into fall.
Bermuda Season
For those first fall days that still feel like summer, take cues from Rosie Huntington-Whiteley’s easy transitional look. The supermodel wore a fitted tank top and tailored Bermuda shorts in a suiting fabric, a combination that effortlessly bridges the gap between seasons. A leather lanyard necklace, pouch bag, and Mémoire notebook act as thoughtful details, bringing textural interest while keeping the look practical for a day out.
