For those who find themselves with an excess of silver after the Beyoncé concert, don’t worry; your excess is surprisingly timely. Last month, the Queen herself asked her fans to wear silver ensembles for her performances in honor of her birthday and big Virgo season – and the hive listened. Now we would like to ask viewers of the show not to throw their sequined skirts in the trash. Our counter-argument consists of some unusually practical clothing formulas, courtesy of the spring ’24 collections, where metallics are becoming increasingly popular. Below, we’ll look at three ways to combine these party items with everyday staples.
White Blazer + Printed Sweater + Silver Shorts
While Grace Wales Bonner opted for silver in her recent collaboration with Adidas, it’s not the only silhouette she’s been loving. Her spring ’24 collection featured these lamé shorts in many looks. For this particular ensemble, we love how she mixed metallic shades with a bright sweater and a neutral blazer.
Silver shirt + jacket + leggings
The designers of the new brand Fforme championed a predominantly neutral palette. However, they added exciting accents throughout, like this glimpse of silver glitter through the layered top. For added comfort, complement your look with an oversized black blazer and leggings, and don’t forget your casual sunglasses. For fall, swap out your strappy sandals for black brogues or derby shoes.
Layered T-shirts + Sequin Skirt + White Flats
Don’t let the sequin skirt fool you. Here, N°21 proves that it can be toned down with a few simple pieces: a white tank and a long-sleeved v-neck tee. Add a pair of pointed-toe flats to let the feminine energy flow in abundance.
