If deciding what to wear is sometimes a daunting task with the weather in your favor, dressing for a rainy day can be even more difficult. Not only for the trivial reason that most of us would rather stay at home bundled up in an anti-extreme but very comfortable domestic outfit, but also because inclement weather knocks out much of what we usually wear (starting with footwear), narrowing our style options considerably.

When it comes to dealing with the vagaries of the elements, wardrobe basics become, as in various other cases, our lifeline. They represent the base from which to build the look, then complementing it with specifically rain gear, from trench coats to umbrellas. It should be noted that fashion trends are on our side, in this respect, since rain boots, from wellingtons to fisherman's models, were among the (most unexpected) protagonists of the fashion shows for autumn winter 2022 2023.

So, straight from the street style of fashion capitals, here are 10 ideas on how to dress when it rains.

With overlapping stripes

The jeans + shirt format constitutes a very effective combination. If you wear a striped shirt, you can give the look an unexpected touch by adding an outerwear item with the same but slightly different print. Complete the outfit with a pair of white sneakers, a choice for true fashionistas.

With fisherman's boots

Not only are they the absolute most rain-friendly footwear, but they are also terribly on trend. Even Chanel has included them in its fall winter 2022 2023 collection, and the ones offered by the Parisian fashion house, in particular, are so fabulous that you'll want to wear them even when the sun is shining outside. Given the importance of the accessory, just add a miniskirt and an oversized jacket, and let your amazing fisherman boots do the talking.

With a scarf around the neck

Generally, with a pair of jeans, any daytime look can be solved. The key is to step out of the ordinary, such as with an oversized windbreaker and a pair of white pumps. An additional (and functional) stylish touch? The scarf around the neck that echoes the black+white color scheme.
