Olivia Palermo at Christian Dior
There was a lot going on with Olivia Palermo’s Christian Dior outfit, from that see-through lacy long-sleeve top to that burgundy pleated skirt with black and silver accents as well as her pointy black shoes. But it was her fall-appropriate deep plum lip color that really earned high marks.

Harley Viera-Newton at Christian Dior
Leopard is always in style, especially in the form of a luxe coat. Follow Harley Viera-Newton’s lead and go with a version in a different palette from the standard fierce feline pattern.

Diane Kruger at Valentino
Whether or not you're a fur fan, you can thank Diane Kruger for demonstrating how to make a Victorian lace cropped blouse work this season. Switch out the fluffy jacket for a different option if you like but keep the rolled jeans and the studded green velvet sandals.

Kasia Smutniak at Valentino
Who needs gloves when the sleeves of your comfy crop top will do the job by covering up your hands? Kasia Smutniak’s high-waisted ivory skirt and black boots were the perfect finishing touches for fall.

-
Zoe Kravitz at Alexander Wang
If you’re going to rock a 90s-style lacy slip dress, go all out with your accents. Think a buckled choker, a studded drawstring bag and chunky black boots a la Zoe Kravitz.

-
Chiara Ferragni at Chloe
Suit up in your PJs for even the most sophisticated of events. Simply make sure that your top is slightly cropped similar to Chiara Ferragni’s pick to prevent it from looking too much like you literally rolled out of bed.

-
Sofia Sanchez de Betak at Chloe
Don’t put away those belt bags just yet. Sofia Sanchez de Betak made it relevant once again by using it to complement her double denim look and snakeskin boots.

-
Solange Knowles at Creatures of Comfort
While it may not keep you warm, Solange Knowles’ sheer jacket is guaranteed to heat things up on the fashion front. The singer/style icon had the right idea by teaming the bold piece with a creamy top tucked into a pair of high-waisted jeans.

-
Emily Blunt at Michael Kors
Frilly sleeves are about to be a hallmark of the season and Emily Blunt let hers take center stage by allowing the ones on her polka dot blouse to poke out the ends of her suit jacket. She added a pop of green in the form of that embossed clutch.

Jessica Alba at Narciso Rodriguez
Baby got back. Jessica Alba’s white dress was far from basic thanks to its blooming back portion.

-
Leigh Lezark at Jonathan Simkhai
Even though they may look like leg warmers, this split sleeve style is thoroughly modern. Leigh Lezark kept things cozy with a white skirt, a purple clutch and black sandals.

Chriselle Lim at Maison Margiela
Dying to still get away with sporting your off-the-shoulder dress as the temps drop? Chriselle Lim gave us a strong lesson in accomplishing such a feat when she layered a crisp white Cinq à Sept turtleneck under the brand’s LBD.

Tilda Swinton at Haider Ackermann
Forget traditional black and white, Tilda Swinton schooled us that houndstooth looks even better in an ivy green format (especially if you have red hair).

-
Poppy Delevingne at Christopher Kane
Patches don’t have to come across as cartoonish. Poppy Delevingne’s decorated black coat was the epitome of sophistication.

Liya Kebede at Lanvin
Remember those sheer-sleeve blouses everyone was obsessed with in the 90s? Well, you better dig them out of the back of your closet since Liya Kebede just proved that the once trendy style deserves another shot in the spotlight.

-
Taylor Schilling at Rachel Comey
As long as you favor a crisp shade, a sweatshirt can work for even a pretty formal affair. It helped that Taylor Schilling paired hers with matching cropped pants and neutral footwear.

-
Diane Kruger at Elie Saab
Give that little lacy dress a bit of edge by draping a black biker jacket on top (pick one with embellished sleeves if you’re going someplace fancy). Diane Kruger also appears to be advocating for the whole socks-and-sandals thing to continue into this fall.

-
Karlie Kloss at Shiatzy Chen
Thinking of trying the corsetry trend? Let Karlie Kloss be your guide and opt for not only a structured top with a lace-up back, but lace-up boots as well.

-
Jenna Coleman at Erdem
If you want to embrace the ruffle trend (which will be sticking around through the spring) without getting overwhelmed by fabric, just do as Jenna Coleman did and select a pretty patterned dress featuring subtle ruffles on the sleeve cuffs along with the hem.

-
Erin O'Connor at Erdem
A fantastic tweed jacket can up the ante on even the most casual of ensembles. Erin O'Connor took things to a whole new level by pairing her cropped navy pants and black brogues with that eye-catching frayed topper.

Hari Nef at Vivienne Westwood
If you’re going to go monochromatic, follow Hari Nef’s lead and have your statement shoes boast a slightly different shade.

-
Olivia Palermo at Mary Katrantzou
Leave it to Olivia Palermo to teach us multiple lessons at once. First, she layered a gold necklace over her turtleneck and then she went ahead and demonstrated how to style track pants without looking like you’re prime for a workout (not to mention how to sport frilly sleeves and a perfectly messy fishtail side braid).

-
Alexa Chung at J.W.Anderson
Let yourself shine in a shimmering coat this fall. To make it practical for daily use, try combining it with laid-back pieces, like a tee and jeans, though we may skip Alexa Chung’s extreme platforms.

-
Emily Ratajkowski at DKNY
Exposing your knee-highs may just be a new trend if Emily Ratajkowski has anything to say about it. The actress/model showed hers off courtesy of the unzipped side slit on her black dress.

Karolina Kurkova at Thakoon
Wrap up a patterned peasant dress with a statement belt. Bonus points for also incorporating tassels into your footwear like Karolina Kurkova.

-
Jamie Chung at Opening Ceremony
Make that see-through netted top a tad more conservative by partially covering it up with a draped cardigan. We love how Jamie Chung also distracted us by opting for truly graphic patterns on both her sweater and skirt.

Lily James at Burberry
Ever wish you could just wear your silky robe all day? Lily James’ belted wrap dress at the Burberry show apparently grants us permission.

Zayn Malik and Gigi Hadid at Versus Versace
Take your crop top into fall by picking a long-sleeve sweater version (striped accents optional) and pair with quilted track pants.

-
Sofia Richie at Dolce & Gabbana
We don’t think we’ll be sporting our lacy black bras front and center anytime soon, but we’re definitely feeling the rest of Sofia Richie’s look. The white blazer provided just enough of a sartorial punch with its strategic embroidery without stealing the focus from her illustrated pajama-style pants.

-
Chloe and Halle Bailey at Tory Burch
This is how to do twinning without looking like carbon copies. The singing sisters complemented each other beautifully courtesy of the white stripe detailing on both of their outfits.

-
Tracee Ellis Ross at Marc Jacobs
If you’re going to drape a jacket over your shoulders, you may as well favor an elaborate one. Tracee Ellis Ross wisely kept the rest of her ensemble relatively understated via that white top and long black skirt.

Ellie Bamber at Fendi
Ellie Bamber showed us how to rock the one-shoulder look for fall with this black one-sleeve dress. Her flirty embroidered bag and sandals are a great way to keep a touch of summer fun going as the weather starts to turn.

Don’t be afraid to colorblock your outfit and your accessories. The Outlander actress grounded her vivid look with a set of black ankle-strap sandals.

-
Devon Windsor at Monique Lhuillier
Bring the prairie off the range and into the city by opting for a jazzed up embroidered midi dress. Devon Windsor naturally went with a Monique Lhuillier pick since she was attending the designer’s Spring 2017 presentation.

Victoria Justice at Rebecca Minkoff
We’ve already established that velvet is big for fall (and spring). Make the transition by topping off your plush creation (Victoria Justice’s take fittingly comes from Rebecca Minkoff) with a denim jacket.
