7 Zoë Kravitz-Coded Looks to Try This Fall

Fall Into Texture

Autumn’s arrival means layers, layers, layers. We think the best way to break up the seasonal blahs is with texture and a bold color. Take cues from Kravitz’s street-ready look and invest in one really great, statement shirt to center your outfit around (hers happens to be from The Row and made from the most delicious corduroy out there). Pair with your favorite, baggy jeans, Vans slip-on sneakers, and top with an easy tote bag and designer shades for a cool look that somehow reads like you didn’t try at all.

A Return to Skinny-ish Jeans

If you haven’t noticed, fall denim trends are pointing to the return of the slim-leg jean. Case in point: Kravitz’s recent, all-black ensemble for a night out in New York City. Be sure to choose a sleek and straight pair that just grazes the ankle to wear with minimalist standbys, such as a cropped, knitted top and tailored blazer. Accessorize with a ladylike, top-handle purse and Kravitz’s latest obsession—pointy pumps. These will keep the whole look feeling modern and fresh for the season ahead.

Pencil Skirts With Length

Lengthened hems are still going strong for fall, and this pencil skirt outfit nails it. A tailored, maxiskirt should be your starting point—it’s going to see a lot of wear in the next few months. Before the colder temperatures truly set in, wear yours with a slightly sheer, beige tank top and blazer thrown effortlessly over the shoulders. Later, a cashmere sweater and leather, knee-high boots will be your best friend. This one goes from day-to-night in a heartbeat, as well. Simply add a slingback pump and dangling earrings for an evening-ready twist.

Formal Footwear for Day

As we start putting aside open-toed footwear and concentrate on weather-appropriate picks, we can’t help but notice how fresh the oxford lace-up shoe feels. Kravitz shows us how to wear them now; with oversized suiting and a fluid, button-down shirt (left untucked), the borrowed-from-the-boys look has maximum street cred. Her transitional fashion flex is wearing this outfit with an oversized straw bag (hers is The Row), proving the shelf life of this accessory normally reserved for the warmer months. It can certainly be worn straight into autumn in a black colorway.

Lacey Separates to Slip Into

Kravitz has been rocking a lot of lace lately, and we can’t get enough of it. It doesn’t take much to pull this look off, either. All you need is a sleek and slinky camisole and slip skirt with lace trims (bonus points if it’s a matching set) and voila!—you’re good to go. High-heeled pumps and diamond drop earrings make this a winning ensemble for any evening occasion or special date night—again proving how sometimes the simplest styling formulas can really be the best.

Reliable Wide-Leg Denim

For a casual night out with friends, you want to look cute yet pulled together. Kravitz achieves this with—you guessed it—wide-leg jeans. Her obsession with low-rise, baggy denim runs deep at the moment, and we are here for it. By pairing these jeans with a slightly sheer, frilled T-shirt and ’90s-inspired accessories, you can balance the grunge mood with a bit of polish; a sleek, top knot and minimalist earrings also help.

Blazers With Sharp Shoulders

Whether for work or weekend, blazers are always a fall must-have. A sharply-shouldered, oversized pick is all you need to breathe a little life into your regular, wardrobe workhorses. Here, Kravitz proves that a voluminous shape works well, especially for petite frames, with a cropped T-shirt and her signature, baggy denim. The peek of midriff counterbalances the proportions beautifully, while adding something special to these everyday best basics.
