최근 패션 트렌드는 기본으로 돌아가는 흐름이 두드러지고 있습니다. 이처럼 단순한 아이템 중에서도 화이트 셔츠는 그 자체로 강력한 존재감을 발휘하고 있습니다. 유명 스타일 아이콘들이 화이트 셔츠를 통해 남긴 전설적인 모습은 많은 이들에게 영감을 주고 있습니다. 이제 아래에서 예시와 함께 정리된 내용을 확인해보도록 하겠습니다.

BACK TO THE BASICS, Fashion Trends Returning to Basics

With everything returning to basics these days, if you had to choose just one essential item for this fall, what would you pick? I think I would go for a white shirt. If I were to buy a new one, I would choose an overfit shirt made of a sturdy and crisp material! Regardless of the brand, if the fabric is thin and lacks density, it won’t hold its shape and will look droopy, making it impossible to achieve a fit like Kaia Gerber’s.

The Common Denominator Among High-End Brands: The White Shirt

Looking at the collections of high-end brands, the common denominator among all of them is this white shirt.

PRADA COLLECTION

ALEXANDER McQUEEN COLLECTION

VALENTINO HAUTE COUTURE COLLECTION

Personally, I think the overfit white shirt worn by Kaia Gerber at the Valentino 2023 FW Haute Couture show was the prettiest! Even when paired with basic jeans, it really enhances the style!

CHRISTIAN DIOR COLLECTION

Style Icons Who Created Legends with a White Shirt

Diana Spencer: You can’t talk about the combination of a white shirt and jeans without mentioning Diana! This photo of her wearing a white shirt with jeans and a Cartier Must de Tank has become her signature style, frequently referenced.

Carolyn Bessette Kennedy: Among the many outfits of Carolyn Bessette Kennedy, who can be considered the epitome of 90s minimalism, this outfit particularly stands out as her signature. It’s also my pick for the best outfit among the style icons introduced today, centered around the white shirt.

Pauline Hoarau: This is French model Pauline Hoarau. I think this outfit perfectly demonstrates how a single white shirt can create a luxurious and elegant look.

Sarah Linh Tran: Known as the ‘human Lemaire,’ designer Sarah Linh Tran, who leads Lemaire with Christopher Lemaire, is someone who particularly suits a white shirt. Perhaps that’s why it’s a staple in her signature looks.

Kendall Jenner: When it comes to ‘white shirts,’ we can’t forget Kendall Jenner’s “human Thoreau” outfit, right?
