Dress up for the holidays with the theme of the latest runway shows—minimalism
The season of Christmas is the best excuse to wear your most head-turning ensemble. Invitations are coming in from left and right to celebrate the jolly festivities and admittedly, holiday outfit planning can be quite stressful—from planning ensemble after ensemble to having thoughts of how you can wear different pieces for a casual outing.

So if you’re already thinking of what to wear for your Christmas parties, you might have a few pieces in your wardrobe that are holiday-worthy. While some will probably opt for the festive ensembles, a good minimalist look inspired by the recent runway shows can be quite head-turning, too.
Alluring maxis
Whether it’s a dress or a skirt, the maxi hemline, without a doubt, reigned in most SS23 runway shows. It’s classy, chic, and easy to wear—a must when you’re out and about during the party.
Color coordinated
Unlike past color coordinated ‘fits, the runway utilized this styling technique in a much simpler way. Opt for your go-to cardigan or a casual top and pair it with bottoms that are in the same shade, but don’t overdo it! Best to keep it simple with little layering.
Pop in color
Keep up with the holiday spirit with a bold choice of color in your minimalist get-up. Go for simple silhouettes such as a sleek dress, satin skirt, or a coordinated look—make sure that your look is pared-down for the ultimate minimalist look.
Sleek tailoring
A sleek, tailored ‘fit is already a head-turner, so why not wear it for the holidays? Go with your favorite tailored coat with a miniskirt in the same shade for a simple yet trendy look or opt for a pair of well-tailored trousers with a simple top and coat.
Casual necessities
When we say the pieces might be in your wardrobe already, we weren’t kidding. Mix and match articles of clothing such as a cardigan, figure-hugging skirt, or button-down top with your favorite neutral essentials.
