Fashion has often been influenced by muses, from It girls to old Hollywood movie stars, and now, fashion’s latest muse is the moon. Specifically, her phases. Each moon cycle brings with it a different energy, one that defines our aura and aesthetics while encouraging a continuation and exploration of personal expression.
At the intersection of celestial curiosity, fashion and timekeeping lies the answer to guiding through your luna style, Tissot’s Désir Moon Phase. The sophisticated watch guides you through the eight phases of the moon with its phase indicator, unveiling your fashion choices with each phase.
The Moon’s Eight Phases As Fashion Muses
New Moon
The new moon beckons fresh awakenings; while it’s not visible, it invites new beginnings. Let this phase guide you into a fashion reset.
Keep outfits simple, clean and intentional. Turn to crisp white button-ups, tailored pieces and classic accessories, such as Tissot’s Désir with its shimmering, moonlight-inspired Mother of Pearl dial and diamond indices to keep the look refined and minimalistic.
Waxing Crescent
A sliver of light appears in the night sky; the light grows (waxing), emulating your growing confidence.
Invite curiosity into your wardrobe. Take small steps towards being bold by branching out and trying a piece you wouldn’t usually wear.
Think: a statement colour or lean into a trend you’ve always wanted to try.
First Quarter
A quarter of the cycle has passed, eliciting momentum in both astrology and dressing. Within this phase, lean into the momentum, letting your innate decisiveness choose the outfit. Or lean on structured, sharp suiting to give you the same momentum through life.
Waxing Gibbous
You’ll see most of the moon lit, and growing larger as it crescendos to its full circle point. This is the moment to refine your style, edit it into a strong look without reinventing your personal flair.
Full moon
This phase is filled with brightness, glow and hope. The moon’s face is full and vibrant. You’re the main character here; dress to be seen and put your confidence on full display.
This is your permission slip to embrace dopamine dressing. Think unapologetically bold colours, brilliant shimmering sequin looks, maximalist accessories (like the Tissot’s Désir with its bold red dial) and Zara Larsson-inspired glam.
Waning Gibbous
The light might begin to shrink, but you’ve found yourself on this journey; your style is effortlessly easy, relaxed and ultimately you.
Whether it’s elevated basics or taking a moment to revel in the quieter moments, your aesthetic is set.
Last Quarter
The phases are three-quarters through, and the cycle is nearly complete. Return to your wardrobe staples, the favourites that you’ve always had to feel the most at home throughout this phase.
Waning Crescent
Just a sliver of the moon is visible before it starts its journey through the phases again. It might be a quiet light, but it’s no less brilliant. Let quiet elegance prevail; allow yourself to feel comfortable with an elevated ballet flat, soft cashmere knits and a chic neutral palette.
Tissot’s elegant Désir Moon Phase collection not only keeps track of each phase, but it complements each moon phase with ease. Becoming the timeless finishing piece that connects you throughout every aesthetic, outfit and mood.
