This season, the Cut ranks the street-style looks from the previous days at Fashion Week. We’ve selected these 29 images out of the many that photographer YoungJun Koo shot in Milan to bring you this list. Agree? Disagree? Chime in in the comments below.
When it comes to memorable runway shows, Milan has so far brought us Barbie’s dream world at Moschino, Burning Man luxury at Alberta Ferretti, and postapocalyptic DIY creations at Prada, to name a few. But street style is a whole other story. Now that the crowd has shifted from London, so, too, have the outfits: Looks in Milan play up the over-the-top energy of the city. There are the pajama-clad ladies like Anya Ziourova and Oksana On who make wearing head-to-toe silk jammies look ever so elegant, and then there was Anna Dello Russo, who wore a mash-up of Marc by Marc Jacobs, Chanel, Paula Cademartori, and Bernhard Willhelm for Camper that could be best described as colorful. Click ahead to see where she placed in the mix of things, and find out who was the surprising street-style winner from the first few days of Milan.

No. 28 - Araya Alberta Hargate By virtue of having (almost) the same name as the best character on Game of Thrones and having enough restraint not to overaccessorize that colorful Prada coat, the Thai actress makes a debut on this list.

No. 27 - Candela Novembre Seeing this lacy outfit after a furry coat is probably confusing. But when did fashion people care about seasonally relevant clothing? That said, this would be a pretty look to wear to a dressy event if you want something less conventional.

No. 25 - Kristina Bazan If you're wondering why there's been a sudden resurgence in Peanuts-themed clothing, they're celebrating their 65th anniversary next year. Pretty sure Lucy would have charged more than a nickel for being on that dress, though.

No. 20 - Old-School-Pajama Girl Should you be unable to finagle your own custom silk pj's, you could always bust out the striped pair your grandpa used to wear to bed. Just add some gold jewelry, and no one will be the wiser.
