Have not received any show invitations this season? Do not worry; we find that outside of the shows, watching guests arriving is actually the place to be during Paris Fashion Week. While there were countless extravagant looks and unforgettable moments from Couture Week 2023, there are some we would like to pause on and give our comments on. Although the couture week is over and Paris doesn't look as attractive without all the street style chic, there are some tips we can actually take into our everyday dressing. Here are the street-style moments to remember, at least till the next couture season, through the lenses of Penot_Paris, Rebecca Rowe, and our editor-in-chief, Ella Cervjakova.

An all-black outfit is always a winner, no matter the occasion or the fashion show. However, a contrasting accessory makes a whole lot of difference. Could we wish for a better bag than the Chanel 22 in lilac to complete this after-show look? Not really.
Some statement pieces live outside of fashion trends and time. Leopard print is perhaps one of the most arguable and tricky to wear prints. It seems like the right time for it comes rarely and stays shortly. Many call the print vulgar and attention-screaming. However, if worn right, all these notes become irrelevant. This fur coat in leopard print matched with the oversized Chanel shades and a black hairband is the perfect example. The key to such a successful look is to use all accessories as a balancing out/tuning down tool to your leopard print piece.

Matching bold colors and multiple prints is a challenging task. But if put successfully (like in Bianca Miro’s case), you might just become the best-dressed girl out there!
For those who don’t dedicate most of their time to fashion, we suggest turning to a personal stylist to create the best colorful print combo that will tastefully play on the edge without making silly fashion mistakes.

Let’s all take a moment to appreciate how lovely the pink finishing on X’s Chanel bag compliments her look!

Although socks and open sandals are hardly fresh news, the combo still looks so ever stylish.
Simplicity goes a long way; this look is a perfect example.

Contrasting shoes is always a good idea, make them denim, and you have a winner.
Yoyo Cao makes an ultimate fashion statement in this so-ever-chic Chanel ski suit paired with a perfect Chanel winter headband.

There are so many “rights” with this look that we don’t know what to begin with! The short-cut pointy-shoulders blazer, the heavy-falling long tulle skirt, and such an elegant Chanel belt, perfectly styled with neat hair.
While there is no place for animal cruelty and real fur is becoming the fashion of the past, looking at an outfit so ever good as the one Amar Akway is wearing is hard to resist. If you find yourself in such a conflict of interest, keep in mind that vintage pieces and rotation of your family-owned outerwear are somewhat justified with considerate consumption and fashion sustainability, we shall say…

And just like that, simply coming from the backstage exit, after walking the Elie Saab show, the model Sarah Soric can easily compete for the “best dressed” among the guests!

Elie Saab couture show guest is demonstrating effortless chic in all its power! We find this suit in light-blue so ever refreshing for Parisian overcast winter. While the perfect relaxed fit of the trousers speaks “cool,” the remarkable Hermes Birkin in crocodile paired with crocodile leather Hermes trainers scream first-class luxury.
When going for volume and details, it is a good idea to use a neutral yet confident color, such as white. This leaves you space for statement makeup and hair!

Although narrow cat-eye shades have been here for what seems one season too long, they still bring such a difference to certain looks. It is hard to imagine Chriselle’s appearance giving such a perfect diva moment without them.
