It’s a new year and old notions of gendered fashion are firmly in the past. The proof is not only in the runways, but also in the clothes worn by guests outside. Recent fashion showgoers in Milan and Paris have taken a lively approach to dressing. They mix traditional staples with unisex accessories.

Monochrome is a big trend this season. It’s best seen in an all-ivory ensemble from Milan. In a palette of off-white neutrals paired with charming accessories, it’s a look that anyone, man or woman, would be happy to sport this season. Statement scarves were big in Paris. Milan has the answer to your question about how to wear a sequined blouse during the day. Style it under a relaxed white blouse with a short sleeves and paired with loose trousers.
