A Fashionable Fusion: Charli XCX’s Red-Carpet Look by YSL
Chris Horan, who admires Vaccarello’s team for their openness to ideas, recently combined two iconic YSL references to craft the perfect red-carpet ensemble for Charli XCX, the multi-talented artist.
The first element of the look was a stunning black feathered top from look 60 of the spring 2019 collection. This piece drew inspiration from Yves Saint Laurent’s 1972 costumes for pop sensation Sylvie Vartan, showcasing a blend of sophistication and glamour. The second component was a timeless black and white column gown from the fall 1982 collection, described by The New York Times as classic yet spirited—a reflection of Charli’s own personality.
Horan expressed that the final look exudes a classic actress vibe with a modern twist, perfectly aligning with Charli’s evolving style. As the Sundance Festival approaches, where Charli’s mockumentary The Moment will debut, Horan promises a touch of diva glamour on the red carpet.
Charli XCX’s journey from a music fan fixated on YSL to a rising fashion icon is a testament to her growth in the industry. While preparing for the press tour of Wuthering Heights and exploring new creative ventures in film, Charli remains true to her unique aesthetic.
Despite not being a revolutionary figure in fashion or film, Charli XCX continues to carve out her own path with confidence. As she transitions from music to acting roles, Horan’s styling choices reflect her individuality and evolution in the spotlight.
