Silver lining: the edit – Where Did U Get That

Silver metallics are trending. There is no shortage of designer inspiration (Sacai, Gucci, Valentino, Paco Rabanne, Chloé, Simone Rocha) and styles (mesh materials, metallic accents, sleek and shiny fabrics) for those who wish to shine bright in this standout trend. Check out some of my favorite silver pieces out there.

Do you know one for the books? When I wore the biggest Carolina Herrera dress of all time. That silver number was everything on the streets of New York. I felt powerful and realized I had a newfound love for silver – long forgotten. Do you feel the same? Seems like gold was the chosen metal for most people until very recently.

However, there are also plenty of less obvious ways to wear metallics. You don’t have to go all out. Perhaps the easiest way to add a touch of shine to your outfits in 2023: one high-shine item, toned down with other basics or more muted pieces. See how I did the trick with a denim jacket? I have had this sequinned silver dress for years and I have always found new and exciting ways to wear it. From cowboy boots to sneakers, denim, and blazers.

A Hint

The silver obsession is also having a significant impact on the accessories world. After years of gold hoop earrings and chain necklaces dominating, silver is starting to regain popularity when it comes to everyday jewelry.

And if you’re willing to take a step further, nothing says “disco” quite like mirrored heels or handbags, which will go with a surprising number of outfits. Black denim and Silver, for example, a true love story. Shout out to my Bao Bao bag by Issey Miyake which is definitely a gift that keeps on giving. One thing is for sure, metallics are one hell of a party-ready trend!
