The Emmanuelle Alt Look Book

French Vogue editor Emmanuelle Alt has dressed the same way for years but still always manages to look interesting. Sometime around 2008, she stopped wearing skirts and dresses entirely, instead adopting a uniform of fitted pants (often skinny-fit and cuffed), collared button-down shirts, and blazers. During the colder months, she opts for a sensible black puffy jacket or wool peacoat; when it comes to shoes, she’ll often wear a strappy heel or ankle boot. In an age when so many showgoers are madly hamming it up for the street-style cameras, her chic, confident simplicity is a great palette-cleanser.
