Street Style: Boxy Clutches and Subtle Allure in Paris

After a rainbow-colored week of bold prints and patterns (not to mention crop tops) in Milan, we’ve finally landed at our final destination for Fashion Month, Paris, where subtle styling reigns supreme. On day one, outfits consisted of solid blacks and creams — and in the case of Emmanuelle Alt, cuffed jeans — accented with boxy, buttery clutches of every size and color. The Cut’s YoungJun Koo was on the scene to capture everything, including Anna Dello Russo’s skip in front of the Eiffel Tower (dressed in her own version of side butt), Rita Zubatova’s Nike-socks-with-heels styling trick, and all of the Comme des Garçons Play tees. Chic comfort and minimalism have returned.
