New York Fashion Week has always been as much about the streets as the runway. On the way to the Khaite show during New York Fashion Week 2021, I chose a look that reflected the understated confidence of New York dressing—sharp tailoring, clean lines, and a restrained palette. Wearing Khaite with Balenciaga sunglasses, the look embraced the balance between elegance and practicality that continues to define the city’s fashion identity.

Sharp tailoring, softened by fluid draping, against the energy of New York Fashion Week
There is an art to white dressing — it demands confidence, clean lines, and an understanding of proportion. The Khaite ensemble delivered on all three, creating a silhouette that felt fresh against the backdrop of New York City’s streets while maintaining the sophistication the brand is known for.
