Lila Moss Just Wore Converse Trainers Like Kate Moss in the ’00s

Trends come and go, but some special items are forever. In my opinion, Converse trainers are one of these rare, truly timeless buys. Sure, they’ve had moments of heightened popularity, but their retro energy and simple design reserve them a place amongst my forever wardrobe heroes.

Clearly on the same page, Lila Moss stepped out this week in a fresh take on my enduring favourite. She chose a deep navy pair, styling them with low-rise indigo jeans, an olive green jacket and a simple knit draped casually over her shoulders. While her outfit tapped into a few current trends—baggy denim and earthy tones included—it still felt grounded and timeless, thanks in no small part to the iconic trainers at her feet.

Of course, this isn’t the first time a Moss has leaned on Converse for understated cool. Her mother, Kate Moss, has been wearing them since the ’00s, pairing them with everything from jeans and tees to, yes, a classic khaki jacket—just like her daughter.

Proving their staying power across decades and generations, Converse trainers remain one of the smartest buys you can make. Fated to make a roaring return this season—I’ve already spotted Alexa Chung reach for her trusty pair in recent months, I’m recommending these kicks to all of my friends looking to invest in a trainer that won’t feel dated by the end of the season.
