When in Munich, you embrace the moment. Heidi Klum, the ultimate arbiter of festive flair, traded red carpet couture for authentic German folk wear as she prepared for the famed Oktoberfest celebrations. Her choice, a stunning and flattering blue Dirndl, is a masterclass in respecting tradition while maintaining an undeniable supermodel presence.
The ensemble adheres to the classic Dirndl structure: a fitted bodice, a voluminous skirt, and an apron. The dress itself is a vibrant, mid-tone blue, with the bodice featuring a tight, woven or quilted pattern that provides structure and texture around the bust and waist. This is layered over a crisp, white blouse with a low, slightly scooped neckline and playful puff sleeves that sit just off the shoulder, accentuating the décolletage. The silhouette is famously flattering, nipping in dramatically at the waist before the full skirt falls gracefully to a mid-calf length. A lighter blue apron, tied at the waist with a simple bow, completes the piece.
Klum pairs the traditional garment with unexpected footwear, opting for bright white leather Mary Jane pumps. The rounded toe and single strap across the arch offer a touch of retro charm, contrasting the earthy tones often seen with traditional footwear. Her minimal jewelry—a delicate silver necklace featuring a small pendant and simple bracelets—ensures that the intricacy and color of the Dirndl remain the focal point.
