Yesterday’s Paris Fashion Week street style round up of subdued glamour was seemingly just a warm up to today’s batch of pics filled with quirky outfits and dramatic outfits featuring lots and lots of black. Black after all is fashion’s favourite colour.

Probably the standout look of the bunch is the fantastically trippy harlequin inspired red and black diamond coat and dress. Paired with a façade top hat, the back cut out allowing for an epically long ponytail, and structural cut-out shoes seemingly defying all logic and gravity. Anna Dello Russo, in typical fashion, also opted for unusual headgear, going for a felt riding cap paired with a black sleeveless shift and sheer pullover underneath. And of course, it wouldn’t be Anna without a little inflection of Asian pop art, with her gummy bear clutch adding a big of colour to the monochromatic look. Black moto jackets were all the rage and spotted on plenty of of-duty models and fashion style stars alike, with Giovanna Battaglia choosing to soften her shearling version with a ruffled gingham ensemble and bright pink fedora.

But the colour on the streets was not restricted to accessories alone. The most striking look of the day came from Elisa Nalin, in a bright sunshine yellow coat with an equally impactful collar. Paired with bright accessories—we want need that umbrella—the look was youthful without being desperate thanks to the high collar of the dress and tasselled brogues. Miroslava Duma’s bright blue neoprene coat and skirt were just as attention grabbing especially when paired with her pastel colour blocked clutch and over the knee black boots. Only a street style star like Duma could make scuba gear look effortlessly sexy.
