Bavaria is a state on the Southeastern part of Germany. The beautiful city of Munich is the Capital of Bavaria and its surrounding charming areas. I am not referring to the traditional Bavarian way of dressing, Dirndl which many young women wear during Oktoberfest and in many cases on the weekends, and yes, in public. Lol. Rather I will refer to the way modern Bavarian women or Munchenerin, dress on a daily basis to run errands while riding their bikes. Yes it really is as idyllic as it sounds and yes this is as modern as they would dare to go. I know that in the US this would be considered Classic. I really enjoyed living in Munich and got the pleasure of meeting many modern, welcoming and sweet Muncheners and they all shared the same characteristics of dressing. Bavarian women have a very classic and understated way of dressing. They smartly avoid trends and prints and love an Isabel Marant anything. They keep the color quantity under three which derive only from neutrals. Black, white, camel, browns and greys are among their favorites. Just as Christian Dior suggests. Although when it comes to color use, Bavarians would prefer dark colors like dark oranges, dark greens and burgundy. Here is my take on how modern Bavarian women dress and the best fashion pieces to follow suit.
Woolrich is a highly regarded brand in Munich and its coats are super functional while good looking at the same time. Black skinny jeans are a staple but also a pair of khakis or Corduoys will do. Alpaca-blend sweater because who can’t resist stripes. Black plain cardigan because layers are not only good in interiors. An understated but designer bag. And as I said an Isabel Marant anything in this case the shoes. photograph in the collage via Lovely Pepa
