Going for Silver—Fashion Has a New Favorite Metallic

Draping lamé, coated denim, layered sequins, and shimmering trousers took center stage at the spring and fall 2023 shows. From Sacai’s reflective bell-bottom pants to Simone Rocha’s shiny puff-sleeve dress, silver took shape in various silhouettes across designer collections. At Coach, a silver shearling jacket was paired with matching trousers. At Proenza Schouler, a crinkled sleeveless silver dress graced the runway. At Isabel Marant, glimmering motorcycle pants marked a moment, confirming a suspicion: It’s time to revitalize the tone we once loved in the 2010s (because how could we forget the way Christian Dior, Diane von Furstenberg, and Tom Ford once mastered this metallic).

Whether you opt for a head-to-toe silver ensemble (à la Paco Rabanne’s quintessential paillettes) or a more pared-back gleaming accent (such as Prada’s sequin-embroidered mesh dress), working silver into the wardrobe rotation this season is a surefire way to shine. Lean into the silver lining this season and shop our favorite shimmering picks, below.
