Rather than let the weather dampen her spirits, Kim showed out in two looks that felt reminiscent of spring.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">She pulled the first outfit from Thom Browne\u2019s spring 2026 runway collection. The look consisted of a white miniskirt with triangular strips of navy blue, red, and white striped material, fabricated to appear like pleats. Up top, the preppy theme continued with a light-blue collared blouse, a beige fitted blazer, and a red-and-white diagonal striped tie. She finished it off with a brown-and-white handbag, white pumps, and long white varsity socks.<\/p>\n<p><img alt=\"new york, new york february 23: chloe kim is seen in midtown on february 23, 2026 in new york city.
