Like black leather and blue denim, red tartan plaid is one of those fabrics that feels timeless and modern at once. And this season—after making a splash on the fall runways of Saint Laurent, Philipp Plein and more—the preppy-meets-punky motif is looking better than ever on a coterie of style stars.

Take Chloe Grace Moretz in Simone Rocha, below. The starlet's ruffled, off-the-shoulder top pairs a bold, unexpected silhouette with a classic schoolgirl print.
