New York is a fashion capital, one of the highlights of the haute couture calendar and a bustling city known for being on the cutting edge of everything, including style. Take a look at some of these street fashion shots captured on the streets of the Big Apple. 

Vanessa's understated look is a masterclass in how to pull off layers with style. Slouchy, casual layers of cotton and leather on top are paired with waxed denims for a look that has a hint of chic while staying perfectly warm and comfortable. The black sneakers blend perfectly with the charcoal denims and the look is completed with a textured, oversized beanie.

Dalad's looks combines femme and structured layers. Her whisper-light, silky midi skirt moves with the breeze and draws attention to her legs, paired with a slouchy vest for draped style. A thick, cropped leather jacket gives her look structure and texture, and creates contrast with the light colour of her skirt and vest. Preppy, modern loafers complete the outfit and elongate the line of her legs. 

Nolita's sunny summer look is peppered with glam pieces. Her vinyl cut-out platform heels are daring and cut right below the ankle to emphasise the curve of the lower leg. Her layered vest and t-shirt combination give her draped style and soften the waistline. The on-trend scalloped shorts in ivory are a statement piece, and the colour is sleek and subtly shows off an intricate pattern.  

Hiroka's cosy winter look is a killer combination of chic wardrobe staples. Her solid ankle boots, paired with faded skinnies are a great display of winter wardrobe staples. Her tan melton coat is paired perfectly with a statement scarf with Navajo-inspired design.

Printed playsuits are the perfect way to make a top-to-toe fashion statement, and this gorgeous watercolour printed style, with a button down top and collar, is preppy and femme. Colour block sandals complement the ditzy print, and this simple style is finished off with a slim, matte shoulder bag.
