Fashion Week is that wonderful time of year when you spend every night dreaming of winning the lottery and immediately spending it all on Net-A-Porter pre-orders. But if watching fashion show after fashion show has got you and your wallet down in the dumps then this is for you.
There are actually a few upsides to a college student’s necessary frugality. Thanks to designer collabs, and diffusion lines, the Internet is full of cost-friendly alternatives that look like the real thing. No, we’re not talking knockoffs, more like gorgeous one-of-a-kind finds with an equally surprising price tag. So, put a smile on that face, these looks will have you catwalking all the way to the bank.
Giant Knits
From oversized furry sweaters at Thakoon to chunky bouclés at Altuzarra, of-the-moment knits require you to go big or go home.
Old Navy Printed Blanket Coat
Neon Brights
The neon trend is still going strong, and an asymettrical skirt like this one from Cheap Monday is an easy (not to mention comfy) way to try out the trend while staying within budget.
Weekday Skirt, $26.31
Pattern Play
