The Kaia Gerber street style formula strikes the balance between casual and perfectly polished. The supermodel’s effortless and pared-down approach to dressing is one where solid wardrobe essentials shine—think tailored trousers and worn-in T-shirts to stylish sneakers and boxy blazers. Just within the past month, Gerber has stepped out in two easy-to-replicate outfits that both feature oversized button-up shirts. As a fall styling hack, she layers the piece over a ribbed white tank and adds in a sleek black dress pant to further elevate the look. The finishing touch? Her favorite Adidas Samba sneakers to achieve that model-off-duty look she so continuously masters.
While it’s no secret that the model is one of Adidas’s biggest fans, she recently showed off another stylish (and affordable!) sneaker—this time from Onitsuka Tiger. She styled the classic pair of sneakers with a minimal suit jacket and a tailored trouser in chocolate brown. Gerber’s sleek suiting choice comes on the heels of her recent collaboration with Zara, where her signature minimalist wardrobe essentials—including several different styles of suits—were front and center. In addition to sophisticated ready-to-wear, she tends to go for accessories that are similarly classic but with a modern twist, like a trendy moon bag or a chunky lug-sole loafer.
Elegant overcoats from Mango and Jonathan Simkhai are also in her fall-fashion rotation, while other honorable mentions include a billowy floral-print blouse from Dôen, luxurious light-wash jeans from Khaite, and a sleek leather blazer from Apparis.
For fall and beyond, look to emulate Kaia Gerber’s street style outfits. It may even be effortless, given that you probably already have all of these wardrobe essentials in your arsenal. Below, nine ways to wear—and shop!—the supermodel’s signature model-off-duty looks.
