Ways to Wear: Celine’s Signature Look This Season
Translated for work of course
January 22, 2026. Heading into H1 2026, Celine (all looks above from SS2026 runways) comes with a clear recurring formula that, with minor tweaks, is surprisingly easy to adapt for work. The vibe is confident bourgeoise with a sparkle in the eye.
Keep the bottom half relaxed and tailored.
Move expression upward — to the neckline — along with a solid dose of hardware at the hands.

The Celine SS2026 Formula
1.
Neutralize the base
Wide-leg pants + minimalist low heels both in a base neutral color. Where Celine goes full on flat, we prefer kitten heels for work. → No detail meant to draw attention.
2.
Relax the frame
Structure the upper body with a slightly oversize blazer with soft shoulders in a color matching the lower body base. → structure without emphasis.
3.
Expression sits in the neck (2-of-3-rule)
Choose two of the following items:
✓ Turtleneck underlayer (thin knit)
✓ Shirt (sharp collar, with buttons open)
✓ Silk scarf (worn loose)
4.
Color logic
Start with two clearly constrating colors. A third color is optional, but if introduced, it must be a tonal variation of one of the first two (lighter, darker, or same-family).
5.
Hardware: gold only
The rule here is simple:
✓ stay minimal above the waist with quiet gold earrings and/or understated gold buckled belt.
✓ let the hands do the talking with stacked gold rings or bracelets.
