Kaia Gerber's Off-Duty Outfit Formula Is So Easy to Copy

Kaia Gerber has been on our radar quite a lot lately, (and no, it’s not because she has been appearing on the runway in stunning bespoke looks at Haute Couture Fashion Week). In fact, it is the model’s off-duty wardrobe that has really captured our attention.

Much like her supermodel mother, Gerber has mastered the art of model-off-duty dressing, as the 18-year-old has managed to cultivate quite the impressive capsule wardrobe for herself. Evidently of the mindset that once you find your aesthetic, you should stick to it, Kaia’s casual looks are not only consistent but also refreshingly simple.

Kaia relies heavily on a few key wardrobe pieces and wears each over and over again. (We love a model who doesn’t mind outfit repeating.) High in her wardrobe rotation is a mix of Converse sneakers, straight-leg jeans, structured blazers and leather outwear. In the colder months, Kaia also chooses to add a series of neutral-toned beanies and bucket hats to her look.

With a base wardrobe of reliable staples that can easily be mixed and matched, we imagine Kaia has no trouble figuring out what to wear in the morning, which is likely very helpful for all those 5 a.m. modelling call times.

Style Notes: This just might be Kaia's favourite outfit formula to date. Straight-leg jeans, converse sneakers and leather blazers are the items that get the most wear in the model's wardrobe.

Style Notes: Kaia often uses sports-inspired sweatshirts and hoodies as layering pieces. Here she's layered a grey hoodie underneath a structured blazer by Sacai and paired the items with her trusty straight-leg jeans and New Balance sneakers.

Style Notes: Another sports-inspired look. This time Kaia elevates a grey sweatshirt and jeans by adding a faux-fur leopard-print coat to the look.

Style Notes: At it again with the leather outerwear. Here, Kaia opted for her favourite hoodie-under-coat formula once again, this time adding a Saint Laurent satchel bag to the outfit.

Style Notes: Kaia modernised the look her mum loved in the '80s by adding a neutral-toned blazer over a classic jeans-and white tee look.
