The best of AAFW Street Style

This week, fashion lovers flocked to Sydney's Carriageworks for the start of Afterpay Australia Fashion Week. Turning up the temperature on a cool Sydney day, Australia's style crowd arrived in their Fashion Week best, levelling up their street style to new heights. 


From laid back streetwear and unmissable pops of colour to knee-high boots and super-chic suiting, the sidewalks were awash with individual street style. Discover some of AAFW 2022's standout fashion moments with Afterpay's roundup of top street style trends. 

Hot Pink

Hot pink is having a moment. From Valentino to Dior and Versace, the resurgence of this bright hue has been the hot favourite on recent fashion week runways. The bold colour also made more than one cameo on the streets of AAFW. From coats, silk shirts, skirts, tailored pants and blazers to cosy knits, accessories and hot pink hair—this is THE colour of the season.

Oversized Blazers

Suit up as street style this year is all about suiting. While AAFW attendees were spotted in classic waistcoats and tailored pants, oversized blazers were the ultimate go-to this fashion week. 

Bold Bags

Adding a splash of colour and style to a dreary day in Sydney, fashion fanatics took to the streets wearing statement bags in various hues. Think bold blues, pastel peaches, turquoise and lime green. 

Trenchcoat

The ever-versatile trench coat made a trendy appearance on the fashion week streets. From stylish neutrals to matrix-style leather, the trusty trench is another winter street style must-have.

White Boots

White boots reigned supreme on the streets of Afterpay Australian Fashion Week. As the cool weather sets in, our favourite winter shoe has arrived back on the scene in varying shades and styles, from vanilla to crisp white, cowboy boots, ankle boots, and chic knee highs.
