Street Style Is Back — Here Are the Best Looks from the Fall 2021 Couture Shows in Paris

OOTDs worn outside the house, what a treat!

Almost a year and a half after the COVID-19 pandemic swept through Europe (in the middle of the Fall 2020 ready-to-wear shows, no less), the Fall 2021 couture presentations are underway in Paris with a return to in-person fashion shows — and real-life OOTDs that do not include sweatsuits. The schedule is packed with exciting live presentations, from Pieter Mulier’s debut at the Maison Alaïa yesterday and Sacai’s Chitose Abe’s guest collection for Gaultier to Pyer Moss’s first haute couture collection on July 8, but we’re *almost* more jazzed about the return of the fashion show that happens off the runway. Here, we round up the eye-catching Paris street style 2021 looks from the concrete catwalk outside the Fall 2021 couture shows. Outfit inspiration, right this way.
