The question arises: what are we wearing out? In New York City, going out is more than just appearing; it’s about making a statement. Whether you're off to a rooftop gathering in the Meatpacking District, enjoying a late-night espresso in Soho, or soaking in the golden hour on the Lower East Side, one thing is certain: the outfit is essential. We’ve identified the ultimate going-out styles that are not only eye-catching at any venue but also seamlessly adaptable for daily city life. From day-to-night essentials to outfits that make you look like you just stepped off the runway, Outcast has the girls covered. We had to highlight these styles; consider it your mood board for NYC nightlife glamour, with just the right amount of downtown edge.
1. Boardroom to Bar: The Office Siren Look
Spotted: a contemporary power move. She’s dressed in the Saffron Pant in pinstripe, paired with the classic Carson Shirt in white. It’s business-chic, but with a nightlife twist. This look exudes “office siren,” ideal for a day in SoHo that concludes with drinks downtown. It’s the type of outfit that doesn’t just seek attention… it commands it. Mix, match, and repeat. These staples are endlessly versatile.
2. Dark Romance: The Black Swan Moment
This embodies that effortlessly bold energy we’re all about. Styled in the Amora Top and matching Amora Maxi Skirt, this look has main character vibes written all over it. It’s dramatic in the best sense, and the pieces? Completely remixable for a daytime slay.
3. City Stripes: From Espresso to East Village
Stripes are definitely in vogue, and she showcases it in the Yui Mini Dress. Styled with a black pointed Mary Jane for a stylish coffee run, and later elevated with a delicate slingback, this look easily transitions into an East Village after-dark atmosphere. It’s simple, chic, and makes a statement.
4. Festival Fade: Late Summer Chic
The Miuccia Mini Dress offers a last-minute festival solution as summer comes to a close. A low-cut black mini dress combined with brown knee-high boots epitomizes a quick yet polished look. It’s ideal for enjoying the final warm breezes of the city while still making a statement.
5. Beaded Perfection: Embellished Elegance
Let’s discuss impact. She’s in the spotlight wearing the Melinae Top and Melinae Midi Skirt, an embellished pair that speaks volumes. The beading is impeccable, both detailed and effortless—and when styled with simple thong sandals, it demonstrates that glamour doesn’t always require heels. Think of this as your new go-to outfit for events.
6. Animal Instincts
Outcast has officially embraced their Capri phase. The striking Illie Capri Pants in an animal print are paired with the Sola Mesh Corset Top, merging casual chic with full-glam vibes. This ensemble addresses the classic challenge of dressing for the day when you might find yourself out all night. She has truly nailed it.
7. Euphoria-Core, Reimagined
This is a tribute to the Euphoria era, the styles we continue to fantasize about. Dressed in the Zia Top and Zia Pant, she presents a contemporary monochrome aesthetic. A black shoulder bag and flats complete the outfit, with a subtle silver accent that adds just the right touch of flair.
8. Polka-Dot Pop: Elevated and Unexpected
Polka dots are timeless, and she has just elevated them significantly. In the Anahi Skirt and Anahi Top, she showcases a refined daytime look in a rich purple palette that feels both fresh and reminiscent. Paired with chrome silver sandals, this outfit proves that playful patterns can still exude sophistication.
9. Lady in Red: Statement Simplicity
Red is always a winning choice. Dressed in the Summei Corset Top and Summei Pant, she strolls through Soho on a quiet early morning, making a bold statement without uttering a word. The white sandals keep the look light, but the message is unmistakable: if you want to attract attention, you can never go wrong with red.
