INTRO
Fashion Week Events bring the world of fashion to an absolute standstill. A time when new looks are on display and one where the world’s biggest designers and brands get to showcase their skills to the globe. A place where creativity meets presentation and talent meets media attention.
Fashion followers everywhere have their interests peaking, eagerly awaiting the upcoming week and all that it has to offer. Whether you’re walking the runway yourself, sitting in the front row amongst the who’s who or watching from afar, you want to stand out from the crowd.
It doesn’t matter if you find yourself in either of the “Big Four” fashion weeks or not, the sentiment remains the same, this is your chance to make a statement and stick out from the rest.
To help you with exactly that, we’ve put together 5 Essential Tips for Standing out at Fashion Week Events. There’s no need to scratch your head wondering what you could do differently this year because, with these tips, the next Fashion Week could be all about YOU!
- MAKE A STATEMENT WITH BOLD ACCESSORIES
To take your look from good to great you need to implement one thing and that is accessories. Not just any accessory but BOLD accessories!
Bold accessories such as earrings, necklaces, or brooches can transform your look into something truly special. Even amongst the most stylish fashionistas on the planet, with the right accessories you can be the talk of the town. Accessories add the necessary pizzazz you not only want but need.
Although you want to shine, it is also important to remember to keep an air of classiness and find the balance between both bold and beautiful. Making use of a pair of gold statement earrings could provide exactly that.
Accessories are the cherry on top of the cake that is your outfit, making even the simplest outfits sparkle like never before. You could be one necklace or brooch pin away from finding the perfect look.
- FIND YOUR SIGNATURE COLOR
Standing out isn’t only about finding a good look but rather finding the right look for you. For example, if you’re blessed with that golden olive skin tone, then the right colors to make you stand out this Fashion Week might be a tropical one, although an earthy color would also be right up your alley.
To elevate your look, it’s important to find your signature color and the one that compliments you best. Knowing that the color you’re flaunting is yours will give you the confidence you need to take center stage. Work with what you’ve got and be yourself.
Once you have found your color, try to include it in the accessories and clothing you decide on. It might be the missing factor in making your skin tone come to life or making your eyes pop like never before.
Celebrities have been doing this for years and so should you. One only has to look at the likes of the gorgeous Gigi Hadid and how she uses white as her signature color to stand out from the rest.
- MIX HIGH FASHION WITH PERSONAL STYLE
If you really want to make this Fashion Week yours, then you need to not only be in the know of what’s trending but also be able to give it your own personal twist. Everyone will be looking to follow the trends and the way that you can truly elevate your look is to put a spin on it that lets everyone it’s both personal and unique.
Much like finding the right color, your personal style should be aimed at accentuating your best qualities. This is done by using the trends in a way which suits your body type and fits your preference.
They say beauty is pain, but it doesn’t necessarily have to be that way. Your personal style coupled with the trendiest looks on the market will be all that more special if you’re comfortable. If you feel good, you’ll do good.
- PAY ATTENTION TO DETAILS
The Devil may wear Prada but it’s also in the detail. When it comes to Fashion Week it is important to sweat the small stuff. While we are not suggesting you should be a nervous wreck, we are suggesting that you pay careful consideration to the little things as much as the big ones.
Make sure that your handbag fits the look, and that your shoes are glistening from being perfectly polished. All these little add-ons can make or break the outfit.
Wiping your accessories with a cloth and keeping them away from dampness can help prolong their new glow. When it comes to your clothing, consider steaming them or hanging them up to avoid creases. You want to look good on all the days not just day one.
- THE POWER OF CONFIDENCE AND BODY LANGUAGE
By now if you’ve followed all these tips, you should be almost ready to take the fashion world by storm, but there’s one key ingredient left that ties it all together and that is CONFIDENCE!
It’s all well and dandy to be able to talk the talk but can you walk the walk. To do so you need to hold your head up high and walk with perfect posture. Body language is everything and confidence is exuded by it. Show the world you believe you look the part, and they will believe you do too.
