How Fashion People in Paris and NYC Are Wearing Their Summery White Tops Into Fall


There’s nothing French women and stylish New Yorkers agree on in the summertime more than pretty white tops, specifically those of the vintage, embroidered sort. Here in NYC, I see them on every block, and on Instagram, I spot them daily in cities across France—from Paris to Marseille—paired with string bikini bottoms, billowy white skirts, and crochet shorts. Usually, the easy, heat-proof blouses get packed away when the first signs of fall arrive. This year, however, a number of well-dressed fans are set on keeping this specific top style in their rotations through autumn, using strategic styling tricks to make the summer staple feel surprisingly seasonless.
