Of course we get excited to see our favorite models walk in the runway shows. They've already made their way through New York, London, Milan, and now they're wrapping up Fashion Month in Paris. So, at this point, it's obvious they look good in everything they wear, and it's cool to see them channeling the vibes of our favorite designers.
But during Fashion Week, when sartorial spirits are high, we'd like to argue that the most stylish place for a model to be is in the street, flaunting her own ensemble. Because whether it's between presentations or on the way to an afterparty, we love to catch a glimpse of character in a more laid-back, off-duty look. So click through to see what the stars of the show prefer to wear when they get a moment's rest from piling on all those luxe designer wares. Models — they're just like us.
