Tight turtlenecks like Hailey Bieber and Kaia Gerber are 100% the star trend this fall

Turtlenecks are no longer just closely associated with Steve Jobs’ wardrobe: last week, French President Emmanuel Macron made them part of politicians’ official dress code instead of traditional shirts. It’s all about the energy crisis problem in Europe. In addition, Bruno Le Maire, the country’s Minister of Economy and Finance, said that the sweaters will likewise be widely used by him and his subordinates – a kind of preparatory stage for a new era of “energy sobriety”.

In the Hollywood arena, turtlenecks have made more of a fashion statement. It all started when Zoë Kravitz wore a high-neck white Saint Laurent bodycon dress at the Oscars in March 2022. And then things went like clockwork. At the end of August, Kim Kardashian tries on a black turtleneck dress (without it), and earlier this month, British actress and model Jodie Turner-Smith chose a round-neck version with lots of it from Christopher Kane.

But perhaps the biggest sensation was Kaia Gerber’s outfit at the Academy Museum Gala in Hollywood last weekend – Cindy Crawford’s daughter was literally indistinguishable from her mother in a translucent Alaïa maxi dress. Hailey Bieber provided the finishing touch in building the trend on a pedestal. For a trip to the Women in Hollywood gala night hosted by American Elle, the influencer chose a brown Saint Laurent high-neck dress.

And to sum up all of the above, we have a unique wearable story ahead of us, not just for official releases. Narrow-necked dresses will be useful both in late autumn and winter months and will ensure that you do not get stuck with the visuals with age-old tracksuits and trousers. So, as always, we look at the stars and follow their orders.
