    It’s Virgo Season: Get Your Fall Style Groove On With These Closet Essentials

    By Tayler Adigun,

    We let our zodiac signs determine if we should take a job, go on that trip or break up with that friend. Why not use it to help us get dressed? Through this series, we continue to explore how our zodiac sign can inspire and enrich our wardrobes and help us put our best fit forward.

    Think about that one person in your life who is the epitome of structure, productivity and general togetherness. They're a Virgo, aren't they?

    Ruled by the messenger planet Mercury, Virgos are the Type A, detail-oriented signs of the zodiac.

    Famously known to go above and beyond in their creative and professional pursuits, Virgos are one of the highest achieving yet famously humble signs of the zodiacs, a particularly fine line to toe.

    Not only do Virgos walk the line, but they also strut the metaphorical runway with practiced ease and immaculate conviction. Virgos love a custom moment, whether that comes in the form of an expertly tailored piece, a wholly bespoke garment, or one-of-a-kind vintage grabs; having pieces that feel tethered to who or where they are as a person is structural to Virgo's sense of dress.

    Much like a Virgo's personality, their modish steez is refined and calculated intentionally. Perpetually on their A-game, this earth sign is one of the most deliberate dressers of the zodiac, and just about every sign can benefit from Virgo's decisive and meticulous style strategy.

    At the intersection of Black excellence and sublime dressing, Virgo's domineering presence boasts some of the biggest names in the game under their fall-favored umbrella.

    To get your Virgo groove on and build a GOAT-approved, carefully curated and celebrity-inspired wardrobe, read on.

    Beyoncé September 4, 1981

    The Queen Bee is the epitome of Virgo energy. Her diligence and tireless quest for perfection have been instrumental in her current position as one of, if not the best, entertainers to ever live.

    Her clothing choices mirror her inimitable tenacity and drive. They serve as another vessel through which the 32-time Grammy Award winner crafts the stories told in her artistry. From the D.Bleu.Dazzled bodysuit she wore in Black Is King , which represents the dazzling resilience of Black culture, to the custom Balmain pieces she wore for the Renaissance world tour, everything Beyoncé wears is particularly crafted, curated, and chosen. Each piece reflects the time and effort she has poured into her craft for the better part of four decades.

    Zendaya September 1, 1996

    Zendaya gave us one of the steamiest sports flicks to come across our screens this year, but it was her back-to-back fashion moments that stole our hearts.

    Working with Law Roach, one of the most prolific stylists of our generation, Zendaya has transformed from a Disney icon to one of the best-dressed celebrities to grace a red carpet.

    She is partial to making nods to whatever project she's working on at the time, so we were fed in terms of tennis tie-ins this year. But while this style of dressing can vary from project to project, there is a certain je ne sais quoi that radiates from the Dune actress no matter what movie she has in the works.

    Justine Skye August 24, 1995

    A Tumblr legend, Justine Skye, put purple hair and generational smizes on the map. She can also wear a dress like nobody's business. From stunning Jean Paul Gaultier gowns to unique hoodied pieces from Acne, there's not a dress on the market Ms. Skye can't body.

    Idris Elba September 6, 1972

    Of the superlatives we'd bestow upon Idris Elba, dapper ranks quite high on the list. Famously handsome (there's proof), looking good is embedded in Elba's DNA. So, of course, the Obsessed actor's fits hit just as hard as his knack for accents and candidness regarding nepotism in Hollywood. He has dad vibes but in a super stylish way that feels more classic than dated.

    Keke Palmer August 26, 1993

    If you were to look up the definition of multi-hyphenate in the dictionary, a photo of Keke Palmer pops up. Ok, that may be a bit hyperbolic, but the Nope actress has truly fortified the term booked and busy. From a podcast host to a girl group to raising a baby, acting is now just one of her many responsibilities that she juggles while turning out fit after fit.

    Taraji P. Henson September 11, 1970

    A businesswoman through and through, Taraji P Henson's bevy of accomplishments on and off-screen can sometimes overshadow her knack for fashion. But make no mistake; the Hidden Figures star has mastered a style of dress that speaks to who she is and what she represents: Unwavering boldness and top-notch clothes that match her proverbial freak.

    Cassie August 26, 1986

    The Official Girl, Cassie Ventura, is synonymous with the coveted "It Girl" title, an overused descriptor for some but a fitting classification for the Connecticut native. It's not just her aesthetic dominance that has platformed her as a gem in our society. Her strength and bravery in the face of unthinkable circumstances radiate from her.

    Now, as a muse and model, Cassie is living her best life on her terms, and we love to see it. Whether she's killing it on mom duty or bodying a fashion week like it's nothing, Cassie is always put together and giving us life on and offline.
