Pisces Season Style Picks: Elevate Your Wardrobe

We’ve endured the darkest nights of the winter. A shimmering dawn approaches, and with it, Aries season, and the relaunch of the zodiac saga. Now, we must process, heal and celebrate all we’ve learned over this last revolution. Welcome to Pisces season.

Pisces is the final sign of the zodiac, the archive which collects all the innovations (and catastrophes) which have come before. Those who fully tap into Piscean style have access to an infinite bastion of references, a library of aesthetics ready for play. Pisces is ruled by Neptune, the planet of oceanic, cinematic imagination. Here, we use fashion to tap into the visions which reverberate in the deeper collective consciousness.

To fully embrace Piscean style, you’re encouraged to blast open the storage locker and revive pieces from bygone eras, to honor those vintage essentials which have come back to full power, and to let yourself have fun, making references and looking back. Come Aries season, you’ll be ready to strip it all away. For now, you might as well enjoy your tour of the walk-in closet.

MET GALA MAJESTY

One cannot begin a Pisces season style roundup without including the Papess of Fashion, the queen diva herself: Rihanna. In the spirit of the two fish swimming at odds, Rihanna’s fashion cannot be pinned down to one single aesthetic. She is a masterpiece in her multitudinous maximalism. What matters is the statement, the daring, and the ability to deliver a deeper emotional statement rather than any forced intellectual reference. Bring full impact with the Christian Dior Blue Denim Saddle Bag, and the Gucci Whit eLeather Marmont Apple Shoulder Bag.

BAD BUNNY, GOOD BUNNY

One fish swims with the current, the other pushes against the stream. Pisces is a sign of inherent duality, of passivity and aggression, masculinity and femininity, love and revenge. Bad Bunny, the multi-platinum King of Trap, has cultivated mystique in his fashion, catering to the fantasy of the beholder while keeping us guessing along the way. When it comes to gender presentation, there are no rules. The Piscean artist is a director, and his finished product should require no explanation. Flip expectations and play with silhouettes, with the Gucci Pink Leather Logo Drawstring Backpack Large, and the Fendi Black Brown Zucca Coated Canvas Crossbody Bag.

PLATO’S ATLANTIS

Pisces’ ruler is Neptune, the god of dreams. Over his influential career, the double-Pisces Alexander McQueen channeled imagery and visions seemingly straight out of the world of fantasies and nightmares. His living, breathing works tapped into dark desires, deep pain, and the possibility of fully-realized imagination. Tap into the realm of demons, dreams and awakenings with the Chanel Blue Denim Embroidered CC Airplane Tote, and the Gucci Black GG Supreme Coated Canvas Night Courrier Zip Flat Messenger.

SCREEN SIREN

Pisces rules over projection, fantasy and film. Its greatest legends, then, are those vessels who embody the projected, cinematic ideal, who can express something larger than life and capture immortality for worshippers everywhere. Leave it to the Pisces Elizabeth Taylor to essentially invent the language of onscreen glamour, romance and heartbreak — of modern idolatry. Taylor’s style set the red carpet standard for generations to come, and any send-off to her style must go big, or not bother at all. Embrace pure star power with the 18K Yellow Gold & Ruby Pave Diamond Rolex, and the Chanel Quilted Lambskin New Classic Double Flap Jumbo.

SEX SYMBOLOGY

Michelle Pfeiffer was born with Venus in Pisces, imbuing her performances with empathy, agony, chaos and control, all at once. Pisces is known as the sign of self-sabotage, and of death and resurrection. Pfeiffer’s women — from Catwoman in Batman Returns to Susie Diamond in The Fabulous Baker Brothers — are on speeding rampages through self-destruction, annihilation and eventual redemption. The latex, silk and lipstick are all modes of liberatory expression through the rampage. Make your style luminous, dangerous and inevitably immortal with the YSL Crocodile Embossed West Hollywood bag, and the Christian Dior Red Cannage Patent Leather Lady Dior Medium.
