Pushing the Envelope: A Week of Red Carpet Glamour
Traditional glamour always rules on the red carpet—but the best dressed stars are always the ones who push the envelope a little bit further. This week, the A-listers who stood out on the fashion scene were those who mixed classic silhouettes with contemporary finishes—making for interesting end results that were more avant-garde, and way more fun.
Chappell Roan turned heads at the Daily Front Row Fashion Awards in Beverly Hills with her bold fashion choice. She wore a floral McQueen frock with sculptural sleeves and a pleated high-neck collar, defying the typical red carpet dress and showcasing the creative vision of her stylist, Genesis Webb. Meanwhile, actor Jodie Turner-Smith made a statement at the Thunderbolts* premiere in London, sporting a Burberry silky blouse paired with a sporty pleated skirt—a sleek and chic look that stood out among the usual glitzy gowns.
Even the more Old Hollywood-worthy dresses this week had unexpected twists. Taylor Russell stunned at a Tiffany & Co event in New York City, opting for a powder-blue chiffon Connor Ives gown with a sweeping train and daring open sides. And at the Planned Parenthood New York Gala, Olivia Rodrigo wowed in a white halter-style Gucci design featuring a dramatic leg slit and bejeweled Horsebit clasp. The week was all about timeless silhouettes with updated and modern finishes.
