Moodboard to Monday: Your Favorite Looks From Fashion Month
We Asked Which Looks Stood Out On The Runway. Here’s How You Voted.
For most of my adult life, I woke up to that familiar feeling of ‘I’ve got nothing to wear.’ Leaving getting dressed to the last minute meant pulling outfits I didn’t feel excited about from a bloated wardrobe, and starting every day frustrated. I saved great outfits for ‘good days’ and accepted ‘just fine’ as the default. That was until I experimented with a wardrobe system, which I now call the Seven-Look Season. By planning and leaning on a few great outfits on repeat, I removed all decision fatigue from getting dressed without sacrificing creativity. Moodboard to Monday is a monthly column that bridges inspiration with execution. It translates readers’ inspiration (a street-style image, a runway look, a celebrity’s style, a new collection) into seven repeatable outfits for real life. Each letter breaks down clear cues that you can put into practice to find and style your seven outfits today.

The Landslide Winner
The most anticipated debut of the month: Matthieu Blazy launches Chanel into a new, long-awaited era. Sharper lines, fewer tricks, and styling that feels repeatable. If we paraphrase your votes, you said: “less spectacle, more wardrobe.” The boy shorts peeking out in this look foreshadow more grounded times for the heritage house. Keep the silhouette strict (mensy jacket, lean skirt/short) and let one refined texture speak. Add an unfussy pump and a small shoulder bag.

The '90s Minimalists’ Pick
Veronica Leoni’s sophomore collection involved minimal styling and precise fits. Clean tailoring with a lived-in mood. Looks you reach for when you want presence without performing. The mix of earthy tones with cream gives this look its urban edge. To stay true to the show’s codes, keep pieces within the ‘90s muted color palette. Build a neutral stack: jacket + pleated trousers + cashmere polo. For accessorizing, stick to patent loafers or a sleek pump, a belt, and nothing else.
