Kate Moss says turquoise is the new black in a chic shirt dress and knee-high boots
Her look is a reminder that you can follow any outfit formula and still inject it with your own personal style
We’re most likely to see her in leopard print, sporting sleek black ensembles or wearing mud-covered boots alongside her festival gear, but there was still something so perfectly ‘Kate Moss’ about the model’s bright and bold look for Paris Fashion Week.
Earlier this week, she attended Dior's Spring/Summer 2027 show in an elegant turquoise shirt dress, with its balloon sleeves, pleated bodice and swishy, vintage-inspired skirt creating a refined and elegant look.
It’s a different style than the one we’ve come to associate with Moss, but she injected the dress with some of her classic, edgy flair by cinching the waist with a black leather belt that featured a big turquoise stone and, to complete the look, a black clutch bag and matching pair of leather boots that brought a grounding finish to the classic autumn pairing of a midi dress and knee-highs.
Get Kate Moss's Look
Aptly named, this Boden midi dress might come in a darker shade of turquoise when compared to Kate Moss's, but it shares that green-tinged undertone that makes the colour pop. Pleated details give it a similar, sharp finish to her style too, while the button front allows you to play around with the fit and finish.
Set on a mid-height block heel and crafted from leather, these knee-high boots from Boden are a pair that can transition from office and everyday wear to evening attire with no problem at all. Polished and refined, yet understated enough to wear with jeans, this is a do-it-all boot.
Kate's statement belt not only cinches in the waist of her shirt dress to create a flattering shape, but it also injects her look with that classic boho style of hers that we've come to know and love. It's easy to do the same with your own outfits thanks to this chic Sezane belt that emulates her style.
This Whistles dress offers an easy way to wear bold turquoise hues this autumn. Long voluminous sleeves bring a elevated touch to the otherwise relaxed, linen dress, while the simple cut allows the bold colour to take centre stage.
Bringing a modern edge to these knee-high boots are the thoughtful details of a chisel toe and a sculpted block heel, which are subtle but have the effect of refreshing and revamping the classic boot style.
If you don't already have a black clutch in your capsule wardrobe, this one from M&S might just be your next buy. Endlessly versatile and super chic thanks to its softly structured frame, it's also made from real leather for a luxe finish and feel.
The brilliance of Kate’s Fashion Week look is that it serves as a reminder that you can follow any outfit formula, step out of your comfort zone with new styles and pieces, and still inject an outfit with your own personal style to create autumn outfit ideas that work for, and feel like, you.
For example, she took her shirt dress and opted to keep several buttons undone at the top, giving the refined, polished style a surprisingly cool edge that made it feel more ‘Kate.’ This helped to offset the wide collar and bring in a more relaxed fit, while the boho detail introduced by her belt complemented both Kate and the dress beautifully.
Her choice of black knee-high boots not only worked to ground the bold turquoise tone, which brings a really bright take on the blue hues dominating autumn/winter fashion colour trends for 2026, but they also had a practical function, too. With the extra coverage on the leg, it’s so easy to bring shorter hems through into colder months without having to rely on tights.
