Elite Model Look's global director, Jennifer May Cope, explains that models, despite their fast-paced, globe-hopping lives, manage to maintain a consistently polished appearance. While each model has her own unique style, there are recurring elements in their off-duty outfits that reflect a shared, discreet fashion code. From Paris to New York and through Milan, these models follow a simple, wearable formula that works across seasons and time zones. The key is in the basics: oversized blazers, straight jeans, well-cut trousers, classic white shirts, and vintage leather jackets. These simple pieces, when combined thoughtfully, create a versatile and timeless look. The black bomber jacket is a standout piece for autumn. Its oversized, rounded silhouette makes it a perfect transitional garment—ideal when it's too warm for a wool coat but too cool for a lightweight blazer. It can elevate even the simplest outfits, such as jeans worn by models like Paloma Elsesser, Amelia Gray, and Laiza de Moura, or be styled in a clean, sexy way, as Bella Hadid often does. The visible bra has become a trend in city fashion, appealing even to those who might be hesitant. Worn under an open shirt during the day, it adds a touch of allure, as seen on Gigi Hadid and Natasha Poly. In the evening, it can be styled under a suit jacket, as Eva Herzigová has done, offering a subtle yet stylish option. The immaculate piece—like white jeans—has been a signature style for Kendall Jenner during the winter of 2023, particularly during the return of Phoebe Philo's designs. These white jeans add brightness to autumn outfits and are part of a clean, elegant look. Other models, such as Vittoria Ceretti, Alex Consani, and Joan Smalls, have also adopted similar white pieces, whether in the form of jackets, knits, or satin pants. The suede jacket is a favorite material for autumn, offering both softness and depth. Whether worn fitted, as with Stella Hanan and Mica Arganaraz, or boxy, as with Hailey Bieber and Mia Armstrong, the natural light brown shade is preferred for its timeless appeal. The checkered detail brings a vintage touch to autumn fashion. Traditionally associated with flannel shirts or wool pants, checks have a distinct seasonal aura. Models like Mona Tougaard, Cindy Bruna, Iris Law, and Lulu Tenney each incorporate this pattern in their own unique way. Finally, worn jeans—distressed or artificially aged—offer a softer, more relaxed look compared to rigid denim. Models like Angelina Kendall, Irina Shayk, and Bibi Breslin rely on this piece for a very casual, comfortable appearance.
