Flash back: street style at fall 2016 couture
As the world gears up for the fall 2026 couture season, which promises debuts from Pierpaolo Piccioli for Balenciaga, Duran Lantink for Jean Paul Gaultier, and Olivier Theyskens for Boloria, we've delved into the archives to revisit the chic street style that graced the streets a decade ago.
Models, editors, and stylists still reign supreme
Some things never change, and that's especially true for the Fashion elite who continue to dominate the front rows at all the hottest shows. Natalia Vodianova remains a steadfast fixture at Christian Dior, while Lucinda Chambers and Christine Centenera still sport some of the most enviable outfits, proving that timeless style is eternal.
Before becoming editor-in-chief of Vogue Australia, Christine Centenera showcased her impeccable taste as the magazine's Fashion director. She now sports the new Wardrobe.NYC x H&M collection, marking an early sighting at the fall 2026 couture events.
Former British Vogue Fashion director Lucinda Chambers is still a stripes enthusiast, a trait she's maintained over the years. Meanwhile, Sofia Sanchez de Betak adores a good print, which led her to launch her own brand, Chufy, a year after this photo was snapped.
Soo Joo Park always knows how to stand out in a crowd, while Teddy Quinlivan's ascent to street-style superstardom has been remarkably swift since her 2015 Louis Vuitton debut.
Cindy Bruna, who recently appeared in the 2025 comedy French Girl, has transitioned from the catwalk to the big screen. And, of course, the late Stella Tennant remains unforgettable in her Chanel look, a testament to her enduring legacy.
A decade later, models like Bella Hadid, Edie Campbell, Mica Argañaraz, and Anna Ewers still rock the streets with their signature styles. Fei Fei Sun's 2003 Chanel rainbow mohair tweed jacket is a standout, while Giorgia Tordini and Gilda Ambrosio, now designers at The Attico, were long-time regulars on the scene.
From Atelier Versace to Valentino, these Fashion icons continue to inspire with their daring Fashion choices, cementing their status as style icons and leaving us eager to see what they'll wear next at the fall 2026 couture shows.
