Four different engagements at four locations all across town sounds tiring enough, now throw three outfit changes into the mix and that is what Emily Ratajkowski was up to on Wednesday.
While in New York City promoting Lena Dunham’s newest project Too Much, the actress and model not only showed off four different ensembles but also demonstrated two ways to style one of the more controversial yet persisting trends of the year.
For her first appearance, Ratajkowski opted for a sleek Calvin Klein suit consisting of a long-line blazer featuring tortoiseshell buttons. She paired the piece with fitted trousers and added a touch of glamour to the business attire with black Paris Texas mule pumps and large sunglasses.
Later in the day she was spotted wearing the same shoes and shades, however, this time with a pair of black capris and an Emily Dawn Long blazer. The long-sleeved jacket featured a scoop neck and three colourful ceramic buttons.
As an avid connoisseur of the capri trend, Ratajkowski did not leave it there. She took the look from dressed up to down by swapping out the blazer with a slouchy baseball tee from Bode, reading “I’m a speed skater.”
With just one swap Ratajkowski demonstrated the versatile styling opportunities for the divisive 2000s inspired trend – though who’s to say if that is enough to convince the capri naysayers.
For her last promotional engagement of the day, she stepped into an archival piece for some genuine Y2K flair. Ratajkowski wore a blue python print dress from the Spring 2000 Gucci collection, styled with the same shoes which had carried her throughout the day’s events.
If there is one thing we can take from the model’s day, it’s the power of a capsule wardrobe. Or at the very least, the importance of staple pieces that can take you from day to night with ease.
